What Is a Gas Safety Check?
A gas safety check is a comprehensive inspection of all gas appliances in your property to confirm they’re safe to use and compliant with the regulations set by the Victorian Government. This service is essential for homeowners and landlords to prevent dangerous gas leaks and carbon monoxide risks.
Is a Gas Safety Check Legally Required in Victoria?
Under the Residential Tenancies Act 1997, all residential properties in Victoria must undergo a gas safety check at least once every two years, conducted by a licensed gas fitter. The Gas Safety Check not only protects tenants from the dangers associated to the troubling gas appliances, it also ensures that the landlords meet their legal responsibilities. If you want to stay compliant as a landlord, call us at 03 7038 6918 or book online by filling out the form on the Contact page.
