If
you are the landlord of a home with gas appliances in it, it is a legal
requirement that you ensure that there is a current Gas Safety Certificate for
each one. This is not the responsibility of the tenant, although I usually do
liaise with them to arrange a mutually convenient time to visit and check
things over.
A
gas appliance can have a lot of errors in its works that don’t obviously affect
its working capacity and yet can leave it very dangerous. Not only could it
explode – and a gas explosion can be very serious indeed – but it could also
cause the build-up of lethal carbon monoxide gas. A simple check to make sure
that the gas is burning cleanly at the right pressure and that there are no
blocked jets or similar problems will result in peace of mind all round.
I
will tell the landlord of any problems, but as a rule it is a simple matter of
forwarding the invoice to them and issuing the certificate on each appliance to
the tenant.
