Safety Checks
Since 1996 all landlords have a
legal obligation to have a gas safety inspection carried out at
their properties at least every 12 months. This is to ensure
that all gas appliances and pipework are in safe working order.
To comply with the regulation
the following must be checked:
-
Appliance Gas pressures
and flame picture
-
The operation of safety
devices
-
Satisfactory ventilation
-
The effectiveness and
visual condition of the flue.
|
However, just because a
safety check has to be done that does not automatically mean
that the appliance has been serviced. A copy of the findings
from the check should also be left with the tenant. The link
shows the dangers of an unsafe gas fire.

At Aura Gas Services we not
only carry out inspections on rented accommodation but more
people are now requesting it as part of a house purchase, or
even just for peace of mind. |

We also carry out independent
inspections for companies or Landlords as part of their quality
assurance.
