Latest On Safe Gas Installers

Gas Safe Register replaces CORGI


The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) has recently announced changes to the gas installer registration scheme for domestic installers in the UK.
We've all gotten used to looking for CORGI registered companies as our benchmark for good, safe gas installation, but now it's time for change.

So What Now?

As of 1st April 2009 a new Gas Safe Register will come into place. This scheme is operated by Capita and it will be the only gas installer registration scheme approved by the HSE under the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998.


What You Need To Do

  • Check that your installation company is registered with the scheme
  • Always ask for a Gas Safe Registered Engineer
  • Remember that CORGI will be no longer valid for these purposes
  • Check with your supplier that they are intending to transfer to the new scheme, or have already done so
