Responsibilities of being a landlord
Gas safety requirements for rental properties As a landlord you have a responsibility to ensure that your property and the tenants that live there are safe. All rental properties must have annual gas safety inspections completed by a Gas Safe registered engineer. On the 1st April 2009 the Corgi Gas Register changed to The Gas Safe Register What is a Gas Safety Inspection? A Corgi Registered Gas engineer visits your property to test and inspect all gas appliances and fittings. After the inspection you will receive a Gas Safety Certificate for all appliances that pass current gas safety standards. A warning notice will be issued for appliances that do not pass safety standards. More information: > Click here to download The Health and Safety Executive leaflet: Gas Appliances; Get them checked.
