No Annual gas safety certificate?

Hi Guys

I have just purchased my 1st property and the tenants moved in on Wednesday, they called this morning to say they had no heating and that 1 of the radiators were leaking, it automatically clicked that I had forgot to get a gas safety issued. I have arranged for an engineer to go their this afternoon but I am now worried incase it gets condemned. I have spoken with HSE and they have told me not to worry as I have acted on it now but what could happen? Thanks

    Just get the system up and running and ask them to do a certificate at the same time. No harm done.

    The maximum fine for no CP12 certificate is £20k. However, it is the EHOs who prosecute for this - so if they say don't worry - don't worry! It is an offence, but they have bigger things to worry about.

    Good idea to get him to service it at the same time
