Gas Safety Inspections

By law all rented properties in the UK must have a Gas Safety Inspection carried out every 12 months, and even if your property is not rented it is a good idea to get these simple checks carried out as part of your yearly service.

As a minimum the following checks should be carried out as part of the gas safety inspection to ensure YOUR safety or the safety of YOUR TENANTS:

• Check with the occupant to determine if they have had any problems or concerns with the gas appliances.
• Check there are no gas leaks on the entire gas pipework installation, right from the gas meter.
• We need to make sure each appliance is getting enough air to operate safely, too little air and CARBON MONOXIDE can occur.
• Inspect gas installation pipework and any flexible connections.
• Ensure all controls are working safely and correctly.
• Check flues to each appliance are safe and intact, particularly important with new condensing boilers, a faulty flue can cause poisoning.
• Ensure that the appliance is using the correct amount of gas at the correct pressure
• Inspect the flame picture of any burners.
• We will make sure your appliances are stable and not likely to come loose and hurt anyone.
• Check each appliance where possible for carbon monoxide (CO)
