Start of Gas Safety Week 2017

It’s here! Gas Safety Week 2017 has arrived and it’s time to familiarise ourselves with Ignite Plumbing's top tips:
1. Get your gas appliances checked annually;
At Ignite Plumbing, we think getting an annual gas safety check is as important as getting your car serviced annually as not only does it give your appliances a clean, the gas safety check also ensures that your central heating boiler is working safely, efficiently and burning the gas correctly. This will not only save you money on your energy bills but will also ensure you and your families safety for the following year. We advise that this is carried out just before the winter starts, as you are more likely to use your gas boiler more during the winter months so there is more chance of faults occurring.

2. Check your heating engineer is Gas Safe registered;
You can confirm our registration to Gas Safe by following this link, this will take you to our page on the Gas Safe Register website, which will list all of the work categories that we are allowed to work on. You can also call Gas Safe on 0800 408 5500 to check our registration status, our company registration number is 571031 or you can enter these details into the Gas Safe website to confirm. If we are subcontracting any work out then we always ensure that the gas engineer that we contract is Gas Safe registered before we allow them to carry out Gas work. You will be able to confirm their registration by asking to see their card or by contacting us first and we will provide this to you. 

3. Check your engineer’s ID card when they arrive to do the job;
At Ignite Plumbing, any heating engineers that visit your home from my company will have their Gas Safe Registration card with them, this will either be carried on them or in their vehicle. You can ask to see this at any time and they will be happy to show you this. There is a list on the back of the card of all the gas appliances and work categories that they are qualified to work on, you can confirm these details on the Gas Safe Website or by calling Gas Safe themselves (0800 408 5500)
