What is the Gas Safe Register and what does it mean?
The Gas Safe register is a list of plumbers, heating and gas engineers who have worked hard, are qualified, and adhere to all applicable laws and regulations. HydraGas is a Gas Safe registered company, so you know you're in good hands! Remember that anyone who works with gas, such as plumbers, must be on the Gas Safe Register by law.
Safety
Gas Safe plumbers 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 plumber you hire to install your boiler must be Gas Safe certified and know what they're doing. Instead of cutting corners, trust the Triangle.
Unauthorised plumbers who haven't been fully licenced perform nearly 1.1 million gas jobs each year, according to the Gas Safe Register. 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' and plumbers' 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 plumber you hire is registered with Gas Safe.
