Gas Compliance Certificates

Gas Compliance Certificates for Complete Peace of Minds

There are no shortcuts in the safety of homes and businesses. We know that no matter what, a good working gas system is the key to total peace of mind, whether it’s upgrading a kitchen or managing an existing setup. That’s why we supply a fully certified Gas Certificate of Compliance (COC) for new and existing installations. We ensure the complete safety of every home and business by providing professional inspections that adhere strictly to rigorous legal standards. Our registered practitioners guarantee complete compliance, allowing for the daily use of the appliances we inspect with confidence and security.

Our Installation Services

A Gas COC is not just a piece of paper. It is a basic legal requirement in South Africa. Any property with a gas appliance must have a valid certificate in terms of strict SANS (South African National Standards). We help you to navigate these complex regulations with ease. The law says that when a property is sold, a valid COC must be transferred to the new owner. Insurance companies also require this certification to verify coverage. Without it, household policies could be voided if an incident happens. We protect our financial and legal interests by ensuring that every part of the system we test is legally recognised and formally documented.

Certifying New Gas Installations

Certification is included with a new installation as part of our professional service. From laying the first pipe to hooking up a modern cooker, hob, or geyser, we're monitoring every step. We ensure the use of the right materials, the provision of adequate ventilation, and the maintenance of safe distances from electrical points. After completing the physical work, we conduct rigorous pressure tests to ensure the system's structural integrity. We will not issue a new Gas Certificate of Compliance until we are totally satisfied that the installation is perfect. We pride ourselves on offering a completely safe, ready-to-use system right out of the box.

Evaluating Existing Gas Installations

Should there be a need to check the safety of an older gas system following a move, we provide full checks on existing installations. We fully inspect the existing system to ensure the condition of the valves, the integrity of the pipes, and the safety of all connected appliances. We check for signs of wear, possible leaks, or outdated components that do not meet modern safety codes. If we find any faults during our detailed inspection, we will give you clear professional advice about what needs to happen to put things right. We’ve done any required maintenance and are pleased to issue a revised certification that brings the older system fully up to today’s regulatory standards.
