The end of Band B GAS Boilers

admin — Thu, 16 Sep 2010 10:12:18 +0000

From the 1st October 2010 changes to Part L of the Building Regulations take place effectively outlawing SEDBUK Band B GAS Boilers.

As a concession any Band B boilers that have been quoted, ordered and paid for may be fitted in homes up to the beginning of April 2011.

Hometech have been recommending Band A boilers such as the Worcester Greenstar, Vaillant EcoTec and Viessmann Vitodens as they can save significant amounts of money on your GAS bills each winter.

If you let a property the law says you must have annual Gas Safety checks performed by a Gas Safe Registered Engineer on all pipework, appliances and flues.

You must give your tenants a copy of the Gas Safety Certificate within 28 days of it being carried out or before they move in. Old certificates should be kept for 2 years.

You are also obliged to show your tenants how they can turn off the gas supply in the event of a gas leak.
