Your Wisbech Business: Ensuring Compliance With UK Gas Safety Regulations
In the UK, it is a legal requirement for landlords and catering companies to obtain a relevant gas safety certificate. Aside from it being a legal obligation, these certificates stand as proof that your business is one that cares about safeguarding your staff and customers or tenants. Gas safety inspections also ensure the efficiency of your machinery so catering companies’ productivity isn’t hindered and landlords aren’t subject to otherwise preventable costs. By taking good care of your appliances with a registered engineer, you are saving yourself an abundance of time, money and unnecessary stress.
Landlord Gas Safety Inspection (CP12 Certificate)
A CP12 certificate, also known as a Landlord Gas Safety Record, is a document that confirms a property’s gas appliances have been inspected and are safe to use. It is a legal requirement in the UK for landlords to obtain an annual CP12 certificate, ensuring all gas appliances, fittings and flues provided for tenants are safe and well-maintained. This highly important inspection must be carried out by a certified engineer once a year in order to reduce the chance of any health hazards.


Commercial Catering Gas Safety Inspection (CP42 Certificate)
If you own any kind of commercial catering establishment, such as a restaurant, café or industrial kitchen, you must be able to show a valid CP42 certificate. Also referred to as a Commercial Kitchen Gas Safety Certificate, this is an official document proving that your gas equipment complies with up-to-date safety regulations. As a registered Gas Safe engineer in Wisbech, I can perform a thorough inspection to make sure your kitchen equipment is working properly, and issue a CP42 certificate to your business.
Mobile Catering Gas Safety Inspection (CP44 Certificate)
For mobile vehicles or outdoor catering businesses that operate LPG equipment, it is a legal requirement to hold a valid CP44 certificate. With the increase in popularity of food trucks and outside dining post-COVID-19, some may not realise the importance of receiving an annual CP44 certificate. As a qualified gas engineer, I can issue proof that you are taking the necessary steps to ensure the safety of your workers, the legality of your business and the longevity of your kitchen equipment.
