Tips to be Safety
Gas appliances can be extremely dangerous if serviced incorrectly. Here are our top tips for dealing with gas in your property.
- Don’t try to do it yourself. Although fitting a gas appliance, such as a fire or a cooker, may seem deceptively simple, it’s actually a complicated job. The complications lie in ensuring the fitting has been performed safely.
- It’s important to always use a gas safe engineer, especially in a rental property. All gas safe engineers carry a Gas Safe ID card, which is their certification that they are legally permitted to work on gas appliances. Check their ID before you allow them to work in your property.
- Don’t block or cover air vents. This can cause huge safety issues, such as the build up of deadly gases.
- Removing gas appliances incorrectly can be just as dangerous as installing them incorrectly. Don’t try to do this job yourself either, it could leave pipes or flues exposed.
- You should be aware of the location of your gas pipes inside your walls, so that you can avoid accidentally puncturing them when hanging a picture or putting up shelves. You can buy a pipe detector inexpensively from almost any DIY shop.
- If you are planning on building an extention to your property, or doing any other type of building work, you should check carefully to ensure that the flue of your boiler isn’t blocked by your work. This can have lethal consequences.
