1. Check the appliance for gas tightness.
2. Check the standing and the working pressure from the test points available.
3. Check the burner pressure and gas rate against manufacturer’s data plate.
4. Check that the satisfactory provision of ventilation has been provided for.
5. Test the flue flow to ensure the safe removal of products of combustion from the appliance.
6. Check the satisfactory operation of all of the flame failure devices.
7. Check the physical stability of the gas appliance and checking for the presence and effectiveness of stability brackets (where required).
8. Investigate any evidence of unsafe operation and report to a designated point of contact.  An appliance cannot be deemed as having been checked, until all of the above has been completed and passed as satisfactory.
9. Checks for any installation defects that don't comply with current regulations
10. For the completion of a Landlords Safety Record inspection (CP 12) certificate a final tightness test of the full system will be required.

Upon completion of all of the necessary safety checks you will be issued with a certificate.
