Why Landlords Need a Gas Safety Certificate
All landlords are required to ensure that their properties are equipped with a valid Gas Safety Certificate. This certification shows that an engineer has examined the safety of all gas appliances and flues within a property.
All Gas Safe engineers carry a photo identification card, which you should ask to see prior to any work that is completed at your home. The card confirms that the engineer is a member of the Gas Safe Register.
how you can help Certificates
A gas safety certificate, also known as a CP12 is an official document that confirms the safe functioning of your gas appliances and flues. It must be issued by a gas safe registered engineer and is a crucial legal requirement for landlords as well as the owners of B&Bs and hotels. It is recommended that homeowners have a gas safety test performed annually by a qualified tradesperson to avoid dangerous accidents.
The CP12 is used to verify that a competent and trained engineer has assessed all the gas appliances and equipment on your home. They will review crucial data and determine if or whether the installation is operating properly and in accordance with the necessary safety protocols. They will also check chimneys and flues to make sure they are safe.
If a problem is identified the engineer will note it on the CP12 and then take steps to correct the issue. They will then issue an updated version of the certificate to ensure that the gas equipment is safe for use.
Landlords are legally obliged to arrange annual inspections of their properties that are not domestic gas appliances and flues, as per The Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998. Failure to comply could result in severe fines or penalties.
During the inspection, the engineer will test all the appliances in the building and also their connections and flues. They will also assess the condition of the pipework and any other gas-related installations like the boiler. They will also note their findings on the CP12, which must be provided to tenants within 28 days of the inspection.
Leisure accommodation vehicles and boats that are used for recreational purposes like caravans and lodges, must be regularly checked by a registered gas safe engineer to ensure that they are in good working order. The engineer will inspect all gas appliances and equipment, and also the connections and flues inside the vehicle or vessel. They will then provide the owner with a "Landlord Gas Safety Record for Leisure Accommodation" or CP2.

Carbon Monoxide Leaks
Carbon Monoxide (CO) is an extremely dangerous gas that could be leaked from faulty gas appliances. It is a colorless, odourless, and tasteless gas that can poison people who breathe it. This is due to the fact that it can affect the blood and brain. The best method to detect a CO leak is by using an alarm that sounds or a carbon monoxide detector. Gas Safe registered engineers can also inspect your gas appliances and flues regularly.
A carbon monoxide gas leak has been reported in an elementary school in Stevenage, Hertfordshire. Just after 13:00 BST the emergency services were called to Martins Wood primary school in Mildmay road. The scene was attended by firefighters, police and East of England Ambulance Service. South Central Ambulance Service treated a woman at the scene for suspected carbon monoxide intoxication.
If you suspect that you may have a CO leak and you suspect that you may have a CO leak, it is essential to take a breather and turn off all gas appliances as soon as you notice. Contact your gas provider and request they turn off the gas at the meters. Also, you should open all windows and doors to let the air breathe.

Gas Installations
Gas Safe Register is required by law for anyone who works with gas appliances, gas systems, or flues at home or in a business. If an individual isn't registered, they are in violation of the law and could put you or your family at risk. Always ensure that the engineer you hire is registered on the Gas Safe Register by looking for their ID card. As a landlord, you must have your property's Gas Safe checked annually. Gas Safe registered engineers can assist in this process, and issue Gas Safety Certificates for landlords. This will ensure that your tenants live in a secure area.
