Built-in, freestanding and LPG cooker hobs
LPG Gas Hob Safety Certificate
Request an LPG inspection for a gas-fired hob and its agreed supply. Send the make, model, data plate, instructions, burner count, built-in or integrated arrangement, gas type and pressure, complete supply, installation photos, operating condition, setting, ventilation, postcode and deadline so the right property, caravan or catering route can be checked.
Identify the complete appliance before choosing the record
An LPG hob record follows the setting and connected installation
A separate built-in hob, a freestanding table unit and the hob section of a cooker or range are not the same inspection request. The appliance identity, LPG specification, burner and control layout, property or catering setting and complete fuel path must be shown before the relevant competence, legal context and paperwork scope can be matched.
The setting determines the correct LPG route

Why gas maintenance, ventilation and mobile setup matter
These official sources explain the catering-gas, ventilation and mobile-LPG context behind the evidence requested before a hob visit.
Separate three commonly confused hob routes
Which LPG hob route fits the appliance?
A distinct appliance with its own data plate, burners and pan supports, connected to an LPG supply in a property, caravan or catering setting.
The hob, grill and oven sections form one complete appliance. Send the complete cooker or range identity and use the whole-appliance route.
Cartridge-fed, plug-in or temporary appliances need their exact model, intended gas and permitted setting checked before any inspection route is offered.
The outcome follows the evidence and accessible findings
Possible LPG hob inspection outcomes
The outcome follows the identified hob, setting, manufacturer evidence, complete supply, operating condition, installation, testing and safety findings rather than the certificate label used in the enquiry.
Possible next steps
- Appropriate record for the completed LPG scope
- Landlord, caravan, cooker or wider catering route identified
- Manufacturer, conversion or service evidence requested
- Separate fault diagnosis or remedial work quoted
- Unsafe equipment isolated or taken out of use as appropriate
- Return attendance after remedial work

Questions before booking
LPG hob safety certificate FAQs
What is an LPG hob safety certificate?
It is the appropriate gas-safety record for the agreed checks completed on a genuinely LPG-fired hob and the stated parts of its supply. The record and scope depend on whether the hob is built in, freestanding or part of another appliance, its property or catering setting, and the wording requested by a landlord, park, venue, insurer, local authority or other dutyholder.
Is an LPG hob the same as a cooker, oven or range?
Not always. A separate hob has burners and pan supports without its own oven. A cooker or range can combine a hob, grill and one or more ovens within a single appliance. If the hob is integrated into a cooker or range, send the complete data plate and whole-appliance photos so the correct appliance and inspection route are quoted.
Is an LPG hob certificate the same as a landlord gas safety record?
No, not automatically. An appliance-specific hob record does not by itself confirm that every relevant gas appliance, flue and part of the rented installation has been included in the landlord's required scope. State that the property is rented and send the complete appliance list, tenancy context and exact paperwork request before booking.
Is an LPG hob certificate the same as a CP44 mobile-catering check?
Not necessarily. A hob record can document the agreed checks on that appliance and supply. A mobile-catering or CP44-type request can cover the wider installation, including every declared appliance, cylinders, regulator, pipework, ventilation and unit setting. Forward the exact organiser or insurer wording so the broader route can be chosen where required.
Can the hob and other LPG appliances be checked together?
Yes, as an enquiry, but list every appliance sharing the cylinders, bulk supply, regulator, changeover equipment or pipework. A property, caravan, trailer or commercial kitchen cannot be scoped honestly if boilers, water heaters, cookers, ovens or other connected branches are omitted. A landlord, caravan, mobile-catering or commercial LPG route may be needed.
What details should I send for an LPG hob quote?
Send the full postcode and setting, hob make, model, serial and data plate, manufacturer instructions, LPG type and pressure, number of burners, built-in, freestanding or integrated arrangement, cylinder or bulk supply, regulator, hoses, pipework and isolation, ignition and current operating condition, ventilation, installation and conversion history, other appliances, access, photos and exact deadline or requester wording.
What may an LPG hob inspection include?
The agreed scope may include appliance identification and suitability, installation and stability, gas tightness, operating pressure, hoses and connections, isolation, ignition, burners, burner caps, pan supports, flame supervision and controls where relevant, combustion or safe-operation checks, clearances, ventilation and the relevant accessible LPG supply. The engineer confirms the checks appropriate to the hob and setting.
Can an imported, converted, second-hand or portable LPG hob be inspected?
It can be considered as an enquiry, but inspection is not a promise to approve unknown or unsupported equipment. Send manufacturer instructions, the complete data plate, declared LPG type and pressure, conversion evidence and whole-appliance photos. State whether it is fixed, plug-in, table-top or cartridge-fed and where it is used. Missing evidence, unsuitable components, outdoor-only equipment used in the wrong setting or an unidentified appliance may require another route or correction.
Will a certificate be issued on the first visit and how much will it cost?
No favourable paperwork is promised before inspection. Price depends on the postcode, property, caravan or catering setting, hob arrangement and burner count, LPG supply, other appliances, access, operating condition, evidence, inspection scope and deadline. Appropriate paperwork can be issued for completed checks when the accessible installation and findings support it; remedial work or another visit may be required.
Which areas do you cover for LPG hob enquiries?
Regular LPG work covers London, Essex and Kent. Hertfordshire, Surrey, Buckinghamshire, Berkshire and Sussex can be considered when the right LPG trade is available. Other UK areas are considered by request after the postcode, hob, setting, deadline and required competence are checked.

Include the postcode and setting, hob make, model, data plate and instructions, burner count, built-in or integrated arrangement, LPG type and pressure, complete supply, every connected appliance, current condition, ventilation, installation and conversion history, photos, access, deadline and exact paperwork wording.
An enquiry does not confirm attendance or a certificate. The hob, setting, installation, evidence, operating condition, postcode, access, relevant competence and current availability are checked first.
