How will the new Gas Safe Regsister scheme affect me?
The Gas Safe Register is focused exclusively on gas safety. One benefit for consumers is the fresh impetus on consumer gas safety through new initiatives to raise public awareness of the risks and how to manage them Consumers can use the ‘Find an engineer’ or ‘Check an Engineer’ service through the Gas Safe Register website (www.gassaferegister.co.uk) to ensure that their engineer is registered and competent to do the work. There will be a new risk-based system to inspect work undertaken by gas engineers. This will target unsafe gas work thereby providing greater assurance that engaging a registered engineer will deliver safe gas work.
