Gas Safety
When gas is used correctly and with respect it is a safe and economical fuel. However - as with any area of expertise - people working with gas need to have the appropriate training and experience. CORGI Registered Installers have to undergo at least the minimum requirement of training before they are accepted on to the CORGI register. Most have significantly more training. The training and assessments that registered gas installers have are not only about the technical know-how of specific appliances but also about safety. All assessments have to be renewed every five years in order to keep installers up to date with ever-changing standards and regulations and to keep their knowledge fresh.
It is not only illegal for people to work with gas unless they are CORGI Registered, it is also highly dangerous. Statistics demonstrate that a significant proportion of gas work carried out by people who are not registered with CORGI is incorrect and therefore potentially unsafe.
If you need gas installation or maintenance work, make sure that you employ a CORGI Registered Installer with the appropriate training and credentials. CORGI Registered Installers will make sure that your appliances meet all gas safety and building regulations and that you have the necessary documentation you may need to sell your house in the future. If you are having a gas appliance installed or exchanged in your home please check the CORGI website for further information on changes to the regulations. Keep your gas appliance's "Declaration of Safety" safe - you may need it to sell your house.
