Gas Safe Register

Gas Safe Register has replaced CORGI in Great Britain and the Isle of Man. The register exists to protect you, your family, and your property from dangerous gas work. By law, anyone carrying out work on gas installations and appliances in your home must be on the Gas Safe Register.  You can find a Gas Safe registered business in your area by entering your postcode.  Every gas safe engineer carries a Gas Safe card which verifies that they are who they say they are and which also gives details of the work they are legally allowed to undertake. Always ask to see their card.

Landlords and tenants can find advice on rights and responsibilities regarding gas appliances and gas safety when renting a property.

Worcester Bosch Accredited Installer

Choosing the right heating system can be difficult, which is why we leave it to qualified installers to advise you on which products and controllers best suit your home and lifestyle, rather than sell directly to customers from the website.

Once you have contacted an installer, they will make an appointment to visit your property, talk to you about what you want to get out of your heating and hot water system, and provide you with a quote. This quote will include supply of the product, installation, any flushing or chemical treatment of the system, the fitting of a filter and the controls.

The quote is usually a no-obligation free quote, but it's best to check with them at the outset.

Some installers offer service and maintenance plans - but don't worry, if yours doesn't then Worcester has a plan you can take out for on-going maintenance.
