Corgi Registered

All work carried out by ACS trained and CORGI registered engineers

When gas is used correctly and with respect it is a safe and economical fuel. However - as with any area of expertise - people working with gas need to have the appropriate training and experience. CORGI-registered installers have to undergo at least the minimum requirement of training before they are accepted on to the CORGI register. Most have significantly more training. The training and assessments that registered gas installers have are not only about the technical know-how of specific appliances but also about safety. All assessments have to be renewed every five years in order to keep installers up to date with ever-changing standards and regulations and to keep their knowledge fresh.

It is not only illegal for people to work with gas unless they are CORGI- registered, it is also highly dangerous. Statistics demonstrate that a significant proportion of gas work carried out by people who are not registered with CORGI is incorrect and therefore potentially unsafe.

If you need gas installation or maintenance work, make sure that you employ a CORGI-registered installer with the appropriate training and credentials.  

If you are unsure whether your installer has the appropriate registration to handle your work, ask to see their ID card and check the details on the reverse.

In order to protect the general public, CORGI-registered installers are:

• Given an identification card which should be shown upon request
• Required to obtain competency certificates in areas of gas work they carry out
• Required to update their proof of competence regularly
• Subject to regular work inspections carried out by CORGI Inspectors
