And keep in mind that the law also states that the landlord is responsible for the safety of their tenants.
Important: The 1998 Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulation states that landlords should make sure that the gas appliances, fittings, and flues are perfectly safe for the tenants.

Here's what the gas safe registered engineers can do for you
- Test the tightness of each gas-based appliance
- Check the burner's pressure and compare it to the manufacturer's info plate
- Test the working and standing pressures of all available points
- Take a look at the ventilation routes (including the chimney and flues)
- Check the flue flow to determine if the harmful gases are being removed
- Determine if the flame failure and the safety mechanisms work
