Gas Safe, OFTEC, LPG and G3. Every registration on this page can be checked independently.
Adept Heating is Gas Safe registered under number 648079, OFTEC registered under number 504346 for oil fired heating, registered to work on LPG, and holds the G3 qualification for unvented hot water cylinders. Public liability insurance is held, with the certificate available on request. Every registration on this page can be checked independently.
Gas Safe is the official gas registration body for the United Kingdom. Under the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998 it is a legal requirement that anyone carrying out work on a gas appliance is on it. It replaced CORGI in 2009.
You can check us, or anybody else, at gassaferegister.co.uk. Search by registration number 648079, by name or by postcode.
Every Gas Safe engineer also carries an ID card showing the registration number, an expiry date and the appliance categories they are qualified to work on. Ask to see it. Any genuine engineer expects you to.
The appliance categories held are shown on the Gas Safe ID card, available to view on request.
OFTEC is the registration body for oil fired heating. Oil work is not covered by Gas Safe, which is why many gas engineers will not take on an oil boiler.
OFTEC registration means the work meets BS 5410 and can be self certified under Building Regulations rather than needing a separate Building Control application. You can check us at oftec.org. Search by registration number 504346.
Full registered categories are available to view on request.
LPG appliances need specific qualifications on top of natural gas, because the gas, the pressures and the safety requirements are all different.
We work on bulk tank and cylinder LPG systems in houses and rural properties off the mains gas grid.
Working on an unvented cylinder legally requires a separate G3 qualification, because an unvented cylinder is a pressurised vessel and a failed safety device is dangerous. A lot of heating engineers do not hold it. We do.
We install and service air source heat pumps. MCS is the certification scheme required to sign off a renewable heating installation, and Adept Heating is not MCS registered in its own right. Our installations are certified through an MCS registered company we work under.
If you want the certifying company and its MCS number for an installation we have carried out, ask us and we will give you it.
We install boilers from Worcester Bosch, Vaillant, Baxi and Ideal, and service and repair all makes.
Public liability insurance is held. Certificate available on request.
Every gas boiler installation is notified to Building Control and you receive a Building Regulations Compliance Certificate in the post. Every installation also gets the Benchmark checklist completed and signed, which sits in the front of the boiler manual.
That checklist is what the manufacturer will ask for if you ever make a warranty claim, and losing it is the most common reason a valid claim gets rejected. Keep it with the manual and take a photo of it.
For gas, search the number on gassaferegister.co.uk and ask to see the ID card, which lists the appliance categories they are qualified for. For oil, check oftec.org. Do both before work starts, not after.
No. Gas Safe covers gas. Oil fired heating is covered by OFTEC and needs separate registration. We hold both, which is why we can cover properties on either fuel.
It is the standard commissioning record for a new boiler, completed and signed by the installer. It proves the boiler was installed and commissioned correctly and it is normally required for the manufacturer warranty to be honoured.
