Gas Safety Inspections (CP12)

Gas Safety Inspections

Why do I need a Gas Safety Inspection?

Safety First: Faulty gas appliances can lead to serious risks like gas leaks, fires, and carbon monoxide poisoning. Inspections help identify and resolve potential hazards, ensuring tenant safety.

Energy Efficiency: Well-maintained appliances operate more efficiently, reducing energy bills and environmental impact.

Cost Savings: Early identification of issues prevents small problems from becoming expensive repairs, extending the lifespan of your appliances.

Insurance Compliance: Many insurers require proof of regular gas safety checks. Non-compliance could risk your coverage in the event of a claim.

Peace of Mind: Regular inspections ensure your gas appliances are working correctly, reducing the chance of unexpected breakdowns and ensuring a safe living environment.

Legal Compliance: Keeping up-to-date gas safety records shows your commitment to safety and legal obligations, which can help secure tenants or buyers.

What do we do on a gas safety inspection?

Visual inspection of the gas installation, appliance(s) location, flue/chimney, and signs of incomplete combustion.

Visual inspection of casings and combustion chamber and seals.
Visual inspection of gas meter/emergency control valve for accessibility in an emergency, for maintenance and correct labeling.
List Testing of the appliance burner pressure or gas rate, or both where necessary.
Combustion gas analysis where specified in the appliance manufacturer’s servicing and maintenance instructions.
Inspect that ventilation is clear and sufficiently sized, etc.
Conduct flue flow and spillage testing where appropriate for correct operation of flue.
Check all flame supervision devices and/or other safety controls for correct operation.
Investigate any evidence of unsafe operation of appliances.
Tightness test of the installation.
Issue an electronic copy of the inspection certificate.
If any unsafe appliances are found they will be labelled AR (at risk) or ID(immediately dangerous), a warning notice will be issued and the appliance will be turned off or disconnected from the gas supply where appropriate.

We have just had our back boiler replaced with a combi boiler, and all of our radiators replaced. Ben has done an excellent job on the installation, was amicable and approachable, and has explained everything perfectly to us. Matt was excellent at advising for the quotation. Robert did the initial inspection of the old back boiler when I first moved in a year ago and was very helpful in answering my questions about it. Would strongly recommend Cambs Heating to anyone.

Excellent New Central Heating system Thanks for all your help - your guys were friendly, efficient, skilled (in particular very nice piping arrangement for the boiler and radiators - and filling of the boiler flue hole in the wall). Also Ben & Adam were careful how they went about the house (taking shoes off where needed) and explained the hive controls well (& liked the temporary floor plastic covering as well - neat idea). Also very nice electronic quotes, payments etc. - good to see they are very up to speed with the electronic era ! Competitive price too, so very good value. I strongly recommend Cambs Heating and hope to see them again !

Excellent service from start to finish. Matt was friendly and provided a well priced quote for a replacement combi boiler with helpful advice. Adam did the install and worked hard from 0750 until 1545. He was professional and explained everything he was doing and has appeared to have done a neat and tidy install replacing some old pipe work and using an existing flue. Would definitely recommend and am considering getting Cambs heating to install some new radiators to go with the new boiler.

We had a big job with replacement oil powered boiler, hot water tank, removal of water tank in loft and converting to mains water - lots of new pipes and old ones sorted out. Each day a text would come with 35 mins notice of arrival which was useful. Cambs Heating Ltd took 4 days, working hard with extremely pleasant, tidy and professional workers. I really do recommend this company with special thanks to Adam. Beautiful work. Oftec chose our installation as one to randomly check and they were very satisfied with the work.

Had a combi boiler installed by Cambs Heating (replacing a back boiler). They did an excellent job and were polite and professional throughout. We had to call them back afterwards to sort out noise in the pipes (due to the increase in water pressure with the new boiler) which they did in a timely manner for no extra charge.
