Are there any building regulations for installing solar panels in the UK?
Yes, installing solar panels in the UK is subject to building regulations, primarily concerning structural integrity and electrical safety. Your installer should handle all necessary permissions and ensure the installation complies with local building codes.
What happens if I don’t get a gas safety certificate?
There might be severe repercussions. You (and your agent, if you have one) might be charged under the Gas Safety Regulations and receive a fine of up to £6,000 or spend up to six months in jail.
What happens if you don’t service a boiler?
If you don’t service your boiler, it may become less efficient. A lack of maintenance can also increase the likelihood of breakdowns and expensive repairs. Boiler Guarantees can become void. It may also become unsafe, as faults can go undetected and lead to gas leaks or carbon monoxide poisoning.

Please provide us with your name and contact information, as well as the address where the gas appliance is installed.

Is there more information about about Boiler Checks and Boiler Servicing in Leicester?
Yes. The local Online News paper, The Leicester Mercury wrote an article about it.
How often do I need to renew the EPC, and what does it involve?
An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rates your property’s energy efficiency and is required whenever a property is built, sold, or rented. An EPC is valid for ten years, but it might need renewal sooner if you undertake significant energy efficiency improvements.
What are the environmental benefits of electric vehicles and EV chargers?
EVs significantly reduce emissions compared to conventional vehicles, especially when charged from renewable energy sources. The UK’s growing renewable energy capacity makes EVs increasingly sustainable.
How long does it take to get a smart meter installed?
The installation time can vary depending on the availability of the installation engineer and the complexity of the installation. Typically, it takes around 1-2 hours to install a smart meter.
What warranties come with solar panel installations?
Warranties for solar panels and their components can vary; panels usually come with a 25-year warranty against manufacturing defects and performance guarantees, while inverters typically have a 5-10 year warranty. Labour might be covered for shorter periods, so check with your installer.
How do I know if I can get a smart meter?
Energy suppliers are obligated to offer smart meters to their customers. You can check with your energy supplier or the relevant government agency to see if you are eligible.
How can I prevent issues with my boiler?
Regular servicing, keeping the area around the boiler clean, and checking the pressure gauge can help to prevent potential issues with your boiler.
Do tenants need a copy of gas safety certificate every year?
Yes! By law landlords must carry out an annual gas safety check and provide tenants with a copy of the record of that check.
What should I do if my boiler stops working?
If your boiler stops working, check the pressure gauge and try to troubleshoot the issue using the techniques outlined in this guide. If you’re unsure what’s causing the problem, it’s best to call a professional.
How can a programmable thermostat help me save money and be more eco-friendly?
A programmable thermostat allows you to set the temperature of your home according to your schedule, so you can reduce heating or cooling when you’re away or asleep. By using a programmable thermostat, you can save up to 10% on your annual energy bills and reduce your carbon footprint.
What is the Gas Safe Register?
The Gas Safe Register is the official list of gas engineers who are qualified to work safely and legally on gas appliances, fittings, and flues. You can find it here: https://www.gassaferegister.co.uk/
What is the difference between a Gas Safety Certificate and a Gas Service?
A Gas Safety Certificate verifies that gas appliances, fittings, and flues in a property are safe to use, while a Gas Service involves checking the appliances for faults, cleaning, and ensuring they are working efficiently.
Do I need to turn boiler off before service?
It is not necessary to turn off your boiler before a service, as the engineer can do this as part of the service process, however it’s recommended to turn your boiler off before the service. This will ensure that it has time to cool down, allowing the engineer to work on it safely and efficiently.
Can any electrician install an EV charger, or do they need special approval?
Not all electricians can install EV chargers. They need to be certified by a recognized body such as the National Inspection Council for Electrical Installation Contracting (NICEIC) or have specific qualifications like the City & Guilds 2919. It’s crucial to choose an installer who has the necessary credentials and experience with EV charging systems.
Does the engineer servicing my property’s gas appliances need to be qualified?
Yes, any engineer working on gas appliances in your property must be Gas Safe registered. This registration is a legal requirement to ensure that all work is performed safely and competently. Always check the engineer’s Gas Safe ID card before allowing them to start work on your property.
