Gas safety and the Law
In these economic times more people are renting than ever. It’s important to RJ Gas that our friends and neighbors around the East London area know what their landlord’s responsibilities are concerning gas safety. Here’s a simple breakdown:
- The pipework of the property, along with major gas appliances, and flues must be properly maintained.
- At least one gas check needs to be performed every month.
- A record must be on hand for tenants to look over the results of annual gas safety checks within twenty eight days of completion.
Gas Safety Checks in Short
These are about maintaining not only a safe home environment, but an efficient one as well. Gas fittings and appliances must be safe to use. Gas leaks, terrible explosions, Carbon Monoxide issues, and fire can be avoided with monthly and annual checkups. Safety checks are a big deal, here’s a few of the things they include:
- Check the flues and ensure combustible material is being safely removed.
- Making sure the gas is burning properly because of an adequate oxygen supply.
- Diagnostics are performed on appliances to ensure they also are properly burning gas.
- Safety devices like alarms are checked.
The age old adage that it’s better to be safe than sorry definitely applies to gas appliances, and the harnessing of gas energy altogether. With a track record like ours, we enjoy the trust and loyalty of our customers. We’ll make it our mission to protect you, your property, and all of the priceless loved ones within the home.
