<p><span class="">Gas safety requirements entail strict regulations to ensure safe gas appliance installation and use, preventing potential hazards like leaks and explosions</span></p>
The law requires you to have your gas appliances checked by a Gas Safe registered engineer every year to make sure they’re working properly and there’s no risk to tenants.
A gas leak in your property could be hazardous to your tenants in two ways:
It could cause carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning
The risk of fire and explosion increases substantially, as natural gas is highly flammable
In addition to the annual gas safety check, the Gas Safe Register also recommends you have a service of the gas appliances and flues every 12 months, unless one of their registered engineers advises otherwise.
