Receive your commercial gas safety certificate from a qualified gas engineer. London Landlord Certifications can carry out inspection and issue a safety certificate. On 6th April 2008, the commercial gas secure installation and use legislation was passed.

The commercial gas certificate is a legal requirement for properties that are leased or used for businesses in order to protect the general public and employees from dangerous gas installations. The responsible individual must conduct an annual commercial gas safety certificate inspection and keep records for 2 years.

The need for certificates is a legal requirement, and the CP17 commercial gas safety inspection can be performed between the 11th and 12th months after the previous gas certificate expires (if the property has been permanently rented out). As a result, it’s important to include the date of the previous gas test so that engineers can conduct a new gas test in plenty of time before the previous one expires.

Restaurants, bars, cafes, offices, and other public buildings are examples of commercial establishments. In fact, commercial gas certificates show that the gas system has been inspected by a registered gas safety engineer with authority to grant a commercial certificate.

London Landlord Certifications serves the following locations: London, Essex, Berkshire, Surrey, Hampshire, Buckinghamshire, Kent and the surrounding areas.

Why does gas safety matter?

Gas safety is not only your legal necessity, it’s also a severe health and safety concern if not given the attention it needs. Please note, gas safety is not only a legal requirement; it’s also a major safety concern if not appropriately addressed. Every year in the UK, many people die from carbon monoxide poisoning, and if you don’t give gas safety the attention it deserves, you’re putting your employees at risk of gas explosions.

That’s why it’s crucial to get your appliances serviced by a certified gas safe engineer. Otherwise, they risk destroying your equipment or, in the worst-case scenario, making them unsafe, putting you and your employees in danger.

On 6 April 2018, the Commercial Gas Safety Regulations for Installation and Use were adopted. It is the duty of any employer or self-employed person to ensure that any gas appliances, gas pipework or flue installed in every workplace under their control are kept safe to prevent danger or damage.
