Does the commercial or domestic building that you rent have a gas safety certificate? Almost all commercial and domestic properties have various gas appliances such as central heating system, gas boiler, gas cooker and other kitchen appliances. All these gas appliances provide you great comfort and make your life for easy, but you are also in danger, if your property does not have a gas safe certificate. So gas safety certificates play an important role in the safety of a building. These certificates are designed to protect both the tenant and the landlord. Gas safe certificates ensure that everything works properly and that the property is safe to live in. So before renting a property ask your landlord about gas safe certificate. Your landlord has reasonability to arrange a gas safety check by Gas Safe Engineers for all gas pipe work, appliances and flues, which they own and have provided for your use. If you are renting a property through a letting agent, then you need to clearly specify who is responsible for carrying out the gas safety checks on regular basis and, and keeping associated records. A gas safe certificate is a legal duty of landlord under the gas safety law. So ask your landlord for a copy of gas safety record before you move in the property. It will show you that all gas appliances at your rented property have had an annual gas safety check by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Remind your landlord after every 12 months for gas safety check carry out by gas safe engineers. What information does the Landlords Gas Safety record contain? - A gas safety record include description and location of all checked gas appliance and/or flue at your property
