BOILER SERVICES AND LANDLORD CERTIFICATES

Landlords are responsible for the safety of tenants. The Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998 deal with landlords’ duties to make sure gas appliances, fitting and flues provided for tenants are safe.

Appliances, fittings and flues in a communal area but which may be used by tenants is also included. Landlords are responsible for the maintenance and repairs of flues, appliances and pipework provided for tenants use. Although there is no prescribed time frame for these duties, good practice would be the demonstration of regular, annual maintenance checks and if required subsequent repairs.

Landlords are also responsible for ensuring an annual gas safety check is carried out within 12 months of the installation of a new gas appliance or flue and which is then provided annually thereafter by a Gas Safe Registered engineer. A record of the safety check is kept for 2 years and a copy to be issued to the incumbent or new tenant (Source HSE).
