In this brief YouTube clip, two speakers discuss the added value of in‑person gas safety inspections compared to digital‑only inspections. Speaker A emphasizes that face‑to‑face inspections serve not only as a compliance test but also as an educational moment, allowing inspectors to update homeowners on recent regulatory changes they may have missed, coach them on best practices, and give them a chance to explain their situation and ask questions. Speaker B summarizes the contrast, noting that the digital inspection functions mainly as a static exam, while the in‑person version includes a teaching and coaching element. The exchange highlights the interpersonal benefits of on‑site inspections that are absent from purely digital assessments.

You're not going to get that on the digital one.
