LPG Heating Services

LPG heating uses propane, butane or an appropriate LPG mixture stored in cylinders or a bulk tank to supply heating appliances. A complete installation can include storage, valves, regulators, changeover equipment, service pipework, the boiler or heaters, controls, ventilation and flues. The exact fuel and appliance requirements must be confirmed for the individual property.

The radiators and controls may appear similar, but the fuel supply and gas work are different. LPG uses cylinders or a bulk tank and requires LPG-compatible regulators, pipework, appliances, settings and engineer competence. A natural-gas appliance must not be connected to LPG unless the manufacturer permits conversion and the correct work is completed and commissioned.

Yes, subject to postcode, appliance and engineer-category checks. Send the boiler make and model, data plate, LPG supply, symptoms or fault code, service history, property type and required outcome. A planned service, fault diagnosis, parts and repair may be separate scopes.

Installation and replacement enquiries can be considered after the property, heat and hot-water requirement, proposed appliance, LPG storage and supply, flue route, controls, access and relevant competence have been checked. An enquiry does not confirm that a proposed appliance or location is suitable.

No. A boiler service records maintenance carried out on the appliance. If you also need a safety check, agree the appliances and flues to be checked, the required record, its recipient and how it will be delivered before the visit.

For a separately arranged landlord safety check, the completed Gas Safety Record should describe the checks and findings, including defects. It should not be withheld until repairs have been finished. Servicing, safety checks and remedial work must each be identified in the quotation.

Send the full postcode, property use, tank or cylinder arrangement, heating-appliance makes and models, data plates, service history, known symptoms and the work or paperwork you need. Include safely accessible photographs, tenant or site-contact arrangements and the date you need the work or record.

Ask for a written quote that states the total including VAT, travel and any parking or access charges. Check whether it covers an initial investigation, servicing, repairs, parts, other appliances, commissioning or a separate safety record. Further work and return visits need agreement; an enquiry does not reserve an appointment.

No. Gas Safe registration does not mean that every engineer holds every LPG, appliance or property-setting category. Check the attending engineer's current ID card or register entry for LPG and the relevant boiler, fires, water-heating, domestic, commercial, caravan or other work required.

These enquiries can be considered when the unit type, occupancy, LPG supply, boiler or heater, flue, other appliances and required work can be matched to an appropriately qualified engineer. State whether the unit is static, touring, residential or holiday accommodation.

London, Essex and Kent are the priority areas for regular LPG heating enquiries. Hertfordshire, Surrey, Buckinghamshire, Berkshire and Sussex are also covered; other UK areas are considered by request. Attendance depends on postcode, installation, access, travel and availability of an appropriately qualified engineer. Give the address where the work is needed, property use, supply, heating appliances, work requested and access constraints.

If you smell LPG or suspect a leak, leave the affected area and contact your LPG supplier from a safe place. Avoid flames and electrical switches, keep suspected unsafe equipment out of use and do not restore the supply until a competent person says it is safe.

Call 999 for fire or immediate danger. Follow the LPG emergency guide for the emergency route; send routine heating enquiries after the immediate risk has been dealt with.
