Do I need an annual Landlords Gas Safety check for a fire/cooker under 1 year old (under guarantee)?
Landlords are required by law to have their gas appliances and their flues checked for safety on an annual basis. However, if a new gas appliance has been installed, that appliance doesn’t require to be covered by a Landlord’s Gas Safety Check for the first 12 months of its life – the gas installer will have conducted safety checks/tests when they installed the appliance. The appliance can be checked at any time within that first year, but subsequent visits should be annually.
