gas safety on holiday
Take care, be Gas Safe at home and away
When you go away, whether staying in a
B&B, villa, chalet, hotel, caravan or boat, you might be
more vulnerable than in your own home. You don’t always know
how often the gas appliances in your accommodation have been safety
checked or serviced or if it’s been done by someone qualified.
Badly fitted and poorly maintained gas cookers, boilers and
fires can cause gas leaks, explosions, fires, and carbon monoxide poisoning - which can
kill.
Gas safety regulations vary across the
world. Gas Safe Register recommends that anyone taking a trip away
follows simple gas safety precautions.
Knowing what signs to look out for could save your life.
