Gas safety checks for commercial properties
If you manage a commercial property, you’re legally required to ensure that your boiler, flue, and gas appliances are well-maintained and safe to use. Our experienced team of registered Gas Safe engineers performs hundreds of checks annually for Kent businesses.
As part of your annual gas safety check, we’ll inspect:
✔️ Gas appliances such as boilers, heaters, ovens, and cookers
✔️ Gas pipework
✔️ Ventilation
✔️ Flue and chimney(s)
✔️ Safety devices and thermostat
✔️ Gas meters
Our engineers record all the checks and recommendations they make. On completion, you’ll be issued an up-to-date gas safety certificate (CP17) – a crucial bit of paperwork that will keep you on the right side of the law!
If you’re a landlord with a tenanted property, an annual gas safety check is essential. Learn more about gas safety checks for landlords on our landlord services page.

Commercial heating repairs and boiler installation
The answers to your frequently asked questions on commercial heating repairs and boiler installation.
How long does a commercial boiler last?
Commercial boilers typically last around 15 years, but some can last as long as 25 years. The exact time frame is determined by the make and model, and how often the boiler is serviced.
What is the difference between a commercial and a domestic boiler?
The main difference between commercial and domestic boilers is their capacity. Commercial boilers are designed to handle higher heating demands in larger spaces, while domestic boilers are intended for smaller residential properties with lower heating and hot water requirements.
Whose responsibility is the boiler in a commercial building?
In most cases, the landlord or owner of a commercial building is responsible for the central heating. However, this can vary.
Check your lease to determine who is responsible for maintaining and repairing the boiler. Your agreement should specify who is accountable for fixtures and fittings such as the boiler.
How often should a commercial boiler be serviced by law?
By law, a commercial boiler must be serviced at least once a year to ensure its safe and efficient operation. Regular servicing helps prevent potential hazards and ensures your warranty remains valid.
What qualifications do you need to fit a gas boiler?
In the UK, you must register with the Gas Safe Register, the official gas safety organisation. This certification is a legal requirement for anyone working with gas appliances.
Before an engineer can register, they must pass the ACS assessments, which test their competence in gas safety and specific gas-related tasks, including boiler installation.
The team at Arton is Gas-Safe registered and qualified to the highest industry standards.
