Gas Safety Certificate
The Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998 deal with landlords’ duties to make sure gas appliances, fittings and flues provided for tenants are safe. A 12 monthly gas safety check must be carried out on every gas appliance/flue. A gas safety check will make sure gas fittings and appliances are safe to use.
PAT (Portable Appliance Test)
This is the process where all of the portable electric appliances are tested to ensure they meet high standards of safety.
By keeping a record of all of these details it gives a Landlord an added security of knowing that they are taking precautions to ensure the safety of their equipment. Not only does this make sure equipment runs smoothly and doesn’t hurt anyone, but it can also help in the event of an insurance claim as proof of compliance with health and safety regulations. Once a PAT test has been carried out, a sticker will be placed on its surface to show it has been tested.
