TIPS to Get Gas Safety Certificate
From a legal point of view, you only need to perform a gas safety check every 12 months, but it is also a good idea to gas safety check the equipment between tenants. You then ensure that your devices are in optimum condition before your new tenants move.
You must keep copies of all documentation. You must maintain the safety inspection for two years and provide a copy to all your tenants within 28 days of the inspection. If your tenants change, they need a copy of the gas safety certificate before they move. If your contract states that the agent is responsible, then they meet the gas safety regulations (installation and use) of 1998.
Installing a carbon monoxide (CO) alarm is highly recommended, not only by us, but also by HSE. It is the best way to ensure that your renters are safe from the dangers of carbon monoxide poisoning. But an alarm may never replace regular maintenance and safety check.
