Gas Safety For Landlords: Don’t Be Penny Wise, Life Foolish
Yes, I said LIFE foolish, not pound foolish – because lives
can be at stake.
When it comes to gas safety, it’s about more than just
saving money—it’s about saving lives. Whether you are a homeowner, landlord or
tenant, ensuring your gas heater is safe is crucial.
Neglected gas appliances can develop dangerous leaks,
leading to fire hazards or fatal carbon monoxide poisoning. These invisible
threats can strike without warning, jeopardising lives and causing devastating
outcomes.
A qualified gasfitter will check for leaks using specialised
equipment, inspect your flue, check for blockages or damage, and keep families
safe from these hidden dangers.
Regular servicing not only ensures safety but also keeps
your heater running efficiently, saving money on gas bills. For landlords, it’s
crucial for duty of care and liability protection. Maintenance costs are minor
compared to the potential consequences of neglect.
Don’t gamble with safety—whether it’s for your family or
your tenants. Just one incident can lead to tragedy, legal trouble, and
financial ruin.
Ensure everyone’s safe, protect yourself from liability, and
prevent the unthinkable. No one should lose their life due to a preventable gas
accident.
Hope that helps, we’ll catch you next time.
