When gas is used correctly and with respect it is a safe and economical fuel. To make sure you and your family remain safe from the possible dangers of gas, follow these simple steps to gas safety:

  • Ensure appliances are checked for safety annually by a CORGI registered installer
  • Be cautious when buying second hand appliances. Do not save on safety.
  • Never be tempted to DIY with gas.

 

If you live in rented accommodation, insist on seeing your landlord's gas safety certificate, which shows that the appliances he owns have been checked for safety by a CORGI registered installer. Your landlord is legally obliged to provide you with written proof of these checks.
