What is a gas safety check?

A gas safety check ensures your gas appliances and pipework are safe and efficient. During the inspection, a Gas Safe-registered engineer will:

• Test for gas leaks and correct pressure

• Check ventilation, flues, and chimneys

• Inspect safety devices and flame operation

Afterwards, you’ll receive a Gas Safety Certificate (CP12) confirming your appliances are safe.

By law, landlords must arrange checks every 12 months, while homeowners are advised to book them annually for safety and warranty protection.
