Frequently Asked Questions

How often do I need a gas safety certificate?

Landlords must have a gas safety check carried out every 12 months by a Gas Safe registered engineer. The certificate (CP12) must be provided to tenants within 28 days of the check, and to new tenants before they move in.

What appliances are checked during a CP12?

The engineer inspects all gas appliances in the property, including the boiler, gas hob, gas fire, water heater, and any other gas-fuelled equipment. They check for safe operation, adequate ventilation, and that flues are clear.

What regulations govern gas safety?

Gas safety in rental properties is governed by the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998. Only engineers on the Gas Safe Register are legally permitted to carry out gas safety checks and issue CP12 certificates.

Can the gas safety check be done on the same visit as an EPC or EICR?
