What is the Gas Safe Register and what does it mean?
Safety
Gas Safe engineers are trained to do safe gas work and detect any problems while installing, repairing, or maintaining gas equipment, ensuring your and your family's safety.
Because carbon monoxide (the gas inside your equipment) is extremely flammable and lethal if inhaled, the heating engineer you hire to install your boiler must be Gas Safe certified and know what they're doing. Instead of cutting corners, trust the Triangle.
According to the Gas Safe Register, nearly 1.1 million gas jobs are performed each year by unlicensed gas engineers. Carbon monoxide poisoning, gas leaks, fires, and explosions are all possible as a result. Many of these unlicensed installers were hired solely on the strength of word-of-mouth recommendations. In none of the situations were the fitter's credentials checked.
In the last three years, 22 people have died and nearly 1,000 have been injured as a result of gas events, according to the Health and Safety Executive. To ensure your safety, always double-check your engineer's credentials.
Quality
All of our heating engineers' work is regularly checked and analysed to ensure that you receive a professional service that meets your needs and is completed to the highest standards.
The Gas Safe registry is regularly updated, so you can ensure that any gas engineer you hire is registered with Gas Safe.
