If you’re a landlord, keeping your tenants safe isn’t just good practice – it’s a legal requirement. One of the most important responsibilities is ensuring that all gas appliances and installations in your rental property are checked every year by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
At Clean Deal Boiler Services, we provide professional Landlord Gas Safety Certificates (CP12) for landlords and letting agents across Bromley, Orpington, Sevenoaks, Dartford and the surrounding areas.
What is a CP12 Certificate?
A CP12, officially known as a Gas Safety Record, confirms that all gas appliances, pipework and flues in your rental property have been inspected and are safe to use.
During the inspection, we’ll check:
- Gas boilers
- Gas fires
- Cookers and hobs
- Pipework
- Flues and ventilation
- Safety devices
- Gas tightness where required
Once the inspection is complete, you’ll receive your Gas Safety Record for your records and to provide to your tenants.
Is a CP12 a Legal Requirement?
Yes.
Under the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998, landlords must:
- Arrange a gas safety inspection every 12 months.
- Use a Gas Safe registered engineer.
- Provide new tenants with a copy of the Gas Safety Record before they move in.
- Give existing tenants a copy within 28 days of the inspection.
- Keep records for at least two years.
Failure to comply can result in significant fines and legal action, as well as putting your tenants at unnecessary risk.
What Happens During the Inspection?
Our inspection is thorough but designed to minimise disruption for both you and your tenants.
We’ll:
- Inspect every gas appliance.
- Test safety controls.
- Check for gas leaks.
- Examine flues for safe operation.
- Ensure adequate ventilation.
- Confirm appliances are burning gas correctly.
- Identify any defects or safety concerns.
If we discover any issues, we’ll explain them clearly and advise on the safest and most cost-effective solution.
Why Annual Checks Matter
Even if your boiler appears to be working perfectly, hidden faults can develop over time.
Annual gas safety inspections help to:
- Protect tenants from carbon monoxide poisoning.
- Reduce the risk of gas leaks.
- Identify worn or faulty components.
- Maintain safe and efficient appliances.
- Ensure you remain legally compliant.
Regular inspections can also help identify small issues before they become expensive repairs.
