Gas safety 

 


As a leaseholder, you are responsible for gas appliances in your home. Remember, gas leaks can kill.

Please ensure:


• Your gas appliances are properly maintained
• You have a gas safety check each year
• You always use a reputable Gas Safe registered engineer

You may also consider installing a carbon monoxide detector.

Gas appliances include:

• gas boilers and central heating
• gas fires
• gas cookers.

If you sublet your property


By law you must ensure that gas appliances receive a gas safey check once a year. Regular servicing is also advisable.

Sub-tenants should ensure that they ask for a copy of the gas safety certificate (CP12) when the last annual check took place.
