Why You Need a Gas Certificate of Compliance
A Gas CoC isn't just paperwork—it's essential protection for your property, family, and financial interests.
Property Sales
If you're selling property with a gas installation, South African law requires a valid Gas CoC no older than 3 months. This protects the buyer and ensures you meet all legal obligations.
Insurance Protection
Insurance companies require a valid Gas CoC to cover gas-related claims. Without one, your policy may be void. Many insurers require annual inspections for coverage.
Family Safety
Ensure your gas installation is genuinely safe with professional testing. Undetected leaks pose serious health risks including carbon monoxide exposure.
Legal Compliance
The Pressure Equipment Regulations (under OHSA 85 of 1993) mandate permanent gas installations must have a valid CoC. Non-compliance can result in liability issues.
Peace of Mind
Know that your gas system has been professionally inspected and meets all safety standards. A current CoC provides ongoing assurance everything is working correctly.
Regular Maintenance
Periodic inspections help identify potential issues before they become dangerous. We recommend inspections every 5 years to maintain safety and efficiency.
