Schedule your annual LPG boiler check now – avoid last-minute rushes and stay ahead of regulations.

If you’ve got an LPG boiler at your property – whether it’s a home, holiday let, caravan or commercial site – it’s essential to stay on top of gas safety. One of the most important documents you’ll need is an LPG boiler gas safety certificate. It’s not just about ticking a box – it’s a legal requirement and a vital step in keeping your premises safe and compliant.

What Is an LPG Boiler Gas Safety Certificate?

An LPG boiler gas safety certificate is a formal record confirming that your LPG boiler and associated appliances have been checked and passed by a Gas Safe registered engineer. These checks ensure your system runs safely and efficiently, reducing the risk of leaks, carbon monoxide poisoning or system failure.

In the UK, if you rent out property or manage commercial premises, you’re legally required under the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998 to have an annual gas safety check carried out.

Who Needs an LPG Gas Safety Certificate?

You’ll need a valid certificate if:

  • You’re a landlord with LPG-fuelled properties
  • You manage a holiday let, park home or static caravan site
  • You operate a catering van or food trailer running on LPG
  • You run any business premises using an LPG boiler or gas appliance

Even homeowners are strongly encouraged to book annual checks for peace of mind – and it’s often required by insurers.

What’s Included in the Gas Safety Inspection?

A certified Gas Safe engineer will carry out a full inspection that usually includes:

  • Checking the boiler, pipework and flues for safety and performance
  • Testing ventilation and emissions
  • Ensuring appliances are correctly installed and suitable for use
  • Identifying any signs of wear, damage or dangerous faults

Once the inspection is complete, you’ll receive your LPG boiler gas safety certificate, also known as a CP42, CP12 or Landlord Gas Safety Record (depending on the type of property or business).

How Often Should You Get One?

For landlords and businesses, the certificate must be renewed every 12 months. If you run a seasonal business, it’s wise to get it sorted before your busiest time of year. Homeowners should also book an annual check-up, especially ahead of winter.

Why Choose a Gas Safe Registered Engineer?

It’s illegal for anyone to work on LPG boilers in the UK without the proper Gas Safe certification. Always check your engineer’s ID card and make sure they’re qualified to handle LPG systems specifically – not all gas engineers are.

Choosing a qualified local expert ensures:

  • The work meets UK safety standards
  • You remain compliant with legal requirements
  • Your insurance cover stays valid
  • Peace of mind for you, your tenants, and customers

FAQs

While both types of certificates prove that appliances are safe and checked, an LPG gas safety certificate specifically relates to systems running on liquefied petroleum gas. Not all gas engineers are qualified for LPG, so always check that the engineer is Gas Safe registered and certified for LPG work.

Yes – LPG gas safety certificates are required for caravans, park homes, static homes and other mobile setups that use LPG appliances. Many holiday parks and insurers also require proof of safety annually, even if you only use the property seasonally.

In most cases, a full inspection takes between 30 minutes and an hour, depending on the setup and number of appliances. If any issues are found, further work may be needed before a certificate can be issued.

If your boiler doesn’t pass, the engineer will explain what needs fixing and may mark it as ‘At Risk’ or ‘Immediately Dangerous’. The certificate will only be issued once the problems have been addressed and a safe re-check is completed.

Absolutely. If you’re running an LPG-powered catering van or food trailer, you’ll need a valid commercial LPG gas safety certificate to operate legally and safely. This is often checked by local councils and event organisers.

Not quite. A gas safety certificate is a legal document showing your system passed safety checks. A boiler service, meanwhile, is a broader health check focused on maintenance and performance. It’s ideal to have both done at the same time, but they are separate.

Yes – head to the Gas Safe Register website and search the engineer’s ID or business name. Make sure they’re certified for LPG work specifically, not just natural gas.
