Why Landlords Need a Gas Safety Certificate All landlords must ensure that their properties have an active Gas Safety Certificate (CP12) in place. This certificate proves that a licensed engineer has examined all gas appliances and flues in the property, and has confirmed that they are safe to use. All Gas Safe engineers carry a photo identification card, which you should ask to see before any work is completed at your home. The card confirms the engineer's registration on the Gas Safe Register. Safety Certificates A gas safety certificate, also known as a CP12 is a legal document that confirms the safe functioning of your gas appliances and flues. Gas safe registered engineers have to issue the certificate. It is an obligation for hotel owners, landlords and B&B owners. To prevent accidents that could be hazardous it is recommended that homeowners get an inspection for gas safety carried out by a qualified tradesperson every year. The CP12 is used to confirm that a competent and trained engineer has assessed all the gas appliances and equipment on your home. They will scrutinize crucial data and determine if or whether the installation is operating correctly and according to the required safety protocols. They will also examine flues and chimneys to ensure they are safe. If heating engineer milton keynes is found, the engineer will note it on the CP12 and will take the necessary steps to correct it. The engineer will then issue a revised version to confirm the safety of all gas equipment. Landlords are legally required to schedule annual inspections of their non-domestic properties' gas appliances and flues as outlined in The Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998. Failure to adhere could result in hefty fines or penalties. During the inspection the engineer will test all appliances within the property along with their connections and flues. They will also assess the condition of the pipework as well as any other gas-related installations like the boiler. They will also write down their findings on the CP12 that is required to be given to tenants within 28 days of the inspection. Gas safe registered engineers must inspect boats and leisure vehicles, such as caravans and lodges, on a regular basis to ensure that they are in a good working condition. The engineer will check the gas appliances and equipment and also the flues and connection points in the vessel or vehicle. They will then provide the owner with a “Landlord Gas Safety Record for Leisure Accommodation” or CP2.
