Sixty eight percent of UK residents put off household tasks until they cannot ignore them anymore, this includes gas safety. With only a month or two until the cold weather sets in, Northcote Plumbing and Electrical are recommending that clients focus on gas safety as a priority.

Only ten percent of home owners are planning to book a gas safety check or gas maintenance service this autumn with more than thirty percent allowing gas safety to take a back seat until there is a problem. A gas safety check with a registered engineer should be at the top of your Autumn maintenance list, along with an annual service to eliminate the risk of disruption in the home.

With many homeowners now working and living at home, due to the current coronavirus pandemic and remote working opportunities, the demand for heating will be on the rise. Gas boilers, ovens and fires can pose a life threatening risk if they are not regularly checked and serviced. Gas leaks, carbon monoxide poisoning and fires are some of the risks you can face if you don't take care of your gas appliances, calling in a professional gas installation specialist to check and service the items, ensuring that they are safe for the upcoming winter season.

Many people across the United Kingdom don't have the knowledge regarding what is an unsafe gas appliance with forty percent believing that smoke is what will tell them when there is a problem, thirty believe a smoke alarm going off shows a gas problem. Having regular servicing and checks is the only way to ensure that the appliance continues running at optimum without the risk of dangerous gas leaks.
