In Scotland, landlords must also have a CO alarm in every room with a boiler, fire or other fixed carbon-fuelled appliance, or a flue (cookers and hobs excluded).
- Boilers, cookers, hobs and water heaters supplied by the landlord
- Flues and ventilation checked

- Safety devices tested
- Gas pipework tightness tested

Questions
Quick answers.
How often does a landlord need a gas safety check?
Every 12 months. The check can be done up to two months before the deadline and the original renewal date is kept.
Can you deal with the tenant directly?
Yes. Give Ross the tenant's number and he will arrange access and keep you informed.
What if an appliance fails the check?
You get a clear explanation and a quote for the repair. Nothing is done without your approval, and unsafe appliances are made safe and labelled as required.
