What the Gas Safe Register does:

  • Operate the official UK list of gas businesses and qualified gas engineers that work for those businesses, as required by law, to ensure only those qualified engineers are licensed to legally work on gas.
  • Undertake monitoring inspections of all businesses on the Gas Safe Register to ensure they are applying gas competence.
  • Investigate gas safety complaints against registered businesses/engineers for compliance with the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998 and, where applicable, the technical specifications required to meet the Building Regulations in England and in Wales
  • Apply a sanctions policy where instances of unsafe work or breaches of rules of registration are identified.
  • Investigate reports of illegal gas work carried out by un-registered businesses or gas fitters and report our findings to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE). To view these prosecutions please visit the HSE website.
  • Undertake consumer campaigns to raise the awareness of gas safety issues such as carbon monoxide (CO) and the dangers of using illegal engineers not on the Gas Safe Register. We also co-ordinate the annual industry wide Gas Safety Week.
  • Provide a facility for registered businesses to self-certify (notify) that the installations of heat producing gas appliances and the hot water and heating systems they serve are compliant with the Building Regulations in England and in Wales.

The benefits for you

Regardless of where you live, selecting an OFTEC registered business offers the peace of mind of knowing that any installation or maintenance work will be done by a competent technician who has been trained and inspected, rather than by someone who may be untrained and potentially incompetent. Work that is self-certified benefits from OFTEC’s free workmanship warranty, which means you will avoid problems in the unlikely event that the work does not comply with the building regulations.

Employing an OFTEC registered business for the installation and maintenance of your heating equipment is the best way to ensure that your system will continue to run safely and efficiently.
