Portable, table-top and commercial LPG cooking stoves
LPG Gas Stove Safety Certificate
Request an LPG inspection for a gas-fired cooking stove and its agreed supply. Send the make, model, data plate, instructions, cooking or heating purpose, burner layout, approved gas and pressure, complete supply, fixed or portable setting, ventilation or flueing, postcode and deadline so the correct appliance route can be checked.
Define what stove means before choosing the route
An LPG stove record follows the exact appliance and permitted setting
A table-top catering ring, a freestanding multi-burner cooking stove, the hob section of a range and a room-heating stove are different appliances. The manufacturer identity, LPG specification, burner layout, intended use, setting and complete fuel path must be shown before the relevant competence and inspection scope can be matched.
Different stove uses need different LPG routes
Who this LPG stove page is for
Food trucks, trailers and commercial kitchens
Operators with LPG cooking stoves where cylinders, regulator, pipework, mounting or restraint, ventilation and every connected appliance must be declared.
Markets, events and outdoor pitches
Businesses using portable or freestanding stoves where the manufacturer-permitted setting, weather protection, combustible materials, organiser paperwork and deadline affect the visit.
Static caravans, lodges and accommodation
Owners and dutyholders with fixed cooking appliances where the accommodation type, intended use, appliance list, complete supply, ventilation and exact paperwork request must be checked.
The intended use, burners and complete fuel path define the visit
What an LPG stove quote and inspection may need to cover
The team needs the appliance specification, cooking or heating purpose, burner and control layout, permitted setting, complete LPG supply, operating condition, ventilation and any flue before matching an engineer and scope.

Official guidance behind the booking questions
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 cooking-stove visit.
Separate three commonly confused stove routes
Which LPG stove route fits the equipment?
A table-top, portable or freestanding appliance with one or more cooking burners, a declared LPG specification and a manufacturer-permitted setting.
A built-in hob or an appliance combining burners, grill and oven should use the corresponding hob or whole-cooker inspection route.
Heating output, flueing and wood, pellet or other fuel arrangements are outside this cooking-stove page and need a separately matched route.
The outcome follows the evidence and accessible findings
Possible LPG stove inspection outcomes
The outcome follows the identified stove, intended use, manufacturer evidence, complete supply, setting, operating condition, ventilation, testing and safety findings rather than the certificate label used in the enquiry.
Possible next steps
- Appropriate record for the completed LPG cooking scope
- Hob, cooker, heating-stove 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 stove safety certificate FAQs
What is an LPG stove safety certificate?
It is the appropriate gas-safety record for the agreed checks completed on a genuinely LPG-fired cooking stove and the stated parts of its supply. The record and scope depend on the appliance design, approved fuel and pressure, installation setting and wording requested by a venue, organiser, landlord, insurer, local authority or other dutyholder.
Is this page for an LPG cooking stove, room heater or wood-burning stove?
This page is primarily for LPG cooking stoves such as table-top, freestanding or catering burner units. An LPG space-heating stove, a wood or other solid-fuel stove and a dual-fuel heater have different appliance, flue and competence requirements. Send the complete data plate, whole-appliance photos and intended use so the enquiry can be routed correctly.
Is an LPG stove the same as a hob, cooker or range?
Not necessarily. A separate hob is normally installed into a worktop, while a cooker or range can combine a hob, grill and oven. The word stove is also used for portable or freestanding burner units. Send the data plate, burner layout and whole appliance so the correct category and paperwork boundary are quoted.
Can a portable outdoor LPG stove be inspected for use indoors or in a trailer?
An enquiry can be considered, but inspection cannot turn outdoor-only equipment into an appliance approved for an enclosed setting. Send the manufacturer instructions, data plate and photos of the proposed location, enclosure, cylinders, clearances and ventilation. The appliance's intended use and actual installation must support the requested setting before a route is offered.
Is an LPG stove certificate the same as a CP44 mobile-catering check?
Not necessarily. A stove 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. List all connected appliances and forward the exact organiser or insurer wording so the broader route can be chosen where required.
What details should I send for an LPG stove quote?
Send the full postcode and setting, stove make, model, serial and data plate, manufacturer instructions, cooking or heating purpose, LPG type and pressure, burner count, fixed, freestanding or portable arrangement, cylinder or bulk supply, regulator, hoses, pipework and isolation, current operating condition, ventilation or flueing, installation and conversion history, other appliances, access, photos and exact deadline or requester wording.
What may an LPG cooking-stove inspection include?
The agreed scope may include appliance identification and suitability, installation and stability, gas tightness, operating pressure, hoses and connections, isolation, ignition, burners, pan supports, flame supervision and gas controls where relevant, combustion or safe-operation checks, clearances, ventilation and the relevant accessible LPG supply. The engineer confirms the checks appropriate to the stove and setting.
Can an imported, converted, second-hand or self-built LPG stove 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, burner and conversion evidence and whole-appliance photos. Missing evidence, unsuitable components, concealed work or a self-built installation may require specialist investigation 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, stove type and permitted setting, LPG supply, other appliances, ventilation or flueing, 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 stove 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, stove type, setting, deadline and required competence are checked.

Include the postcode and actual setting, stove make, model, data plate and instructions, cooking or heating purpose, burner layout, LPG type and pressure, complete supply, other appliances, operating condition, mounting, ventilation or flueing, conversion history, photos, access, deadline and exact paperwork wording.
An enquiry does not confirm attendance or a certificate. The stove, purpose, setting, installation, evidence, operating condition, postcode, access, relevant competence and current availability are checked first.
