Gas Safety Checks
A gas safety check involves a Gas Safe registered engineer inspecting your gas appliances. They will check the appliance is working correctly and will check the following four areas:
- Gas appliances are on the right setting and burning correctly with the correct operating pressure.
- Harmful gases are being removed from the appliance safely to the air outside.
- That any ventilation routes are clear and working properly.
- All the safety devices are working.
The check will identify any defects which require remedial work. You should have a gas safety check every year. If you are a landlord this is the law.
I can organise these checks for your properties.
Hit the manuals
Learn how your plumbing and heating systems work, they are generally quite basic and could save you an embarrassing emergency call-out. Knowing about the type, make, and model could also help an engineer diagnose faults over the phone. If you can't find the manual for your equipment, try searching online for downloabable copies.
