As a landlord, it’s important to ensure that your property is safe and meets all necessary regulations. According to the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998, it is mandatory for landlords to have their gas appliances regularly serviced to ensure optimal efficiency.
What is a CP12 Certificate?
A Landlord Safety Certificate also referred to as CP12, serves as accredited proof to tenants. It shows that within the last 12 months, a Gas Safe engineer has inspected and confirmed that all heat-producing gas products in the establishment are safe to operate. It also informs the local authority that your new equipment is good to go.
What does the CP12 gas safety certificate inspection entail?
In order to provide you with a landlord safety certificate, a series of check-ups is conducted. Landlord Safety Certificate Inspection basically includes the following
Inspection of your appliances for gas tightness.
Testing of the flue flow to ensure effective removal of combustion products.
Ensuring the adequate provision of necessary ventilation.
Checking the standing and working gas pressure using test points, if available.
Verification of proper usage of all gas items or devices.
Testing of the burner/gas pressure against the manufacturer's data plate.
Why getting a Landlord Safety Certificate is important?
Gas appliances can be dangerous if not maintained properly. A CP12 certificate provides peace of mind knowing that your gas appliances, fittings, and flues have been thoroughly inspected and are in good working order.
Moreover, ensuring that your rental property is safe is not only a legal obligation but also a moral responsibility. Obtaining a C12 certificate is one of the necessary steps to protect your tenants and yourself from potential risks. It demonstrates your commitment to the safety of your tenants.
