More About Gas Safety Checks By Taskforce
How often do gas safety checks need to be done?
In Victoria, rental properties must undergo a gas safety check at least once every two years. Checks must be carried out by a licensed or registered gas fitter, with records kept as evidence of compliance. Regular inspections help identify safety issues early and reduce risk between tenancies.
What’s included in a rental property gas safety check?
A gas safety check includes inspection of all gas appliances, fittings, and supply lines provided with the property. This covers appliance stability, ventilation, flue systems, pipework condition, gas tightness testing, and checks for carbon monoxide risks, including negative pressure testing where required.
Can gas appliances be serviced or repaired during the check?
The inspection process identifies any faults or safety issues. If servicing or rectification work is required, this can be arranged separately as part of ongoing maintenance to ensure the property remains safe and compliant.
What are the signs of a gas leak?
Common signs of a gas leak include a rotten egg smell, hissing sounds near gas appliances or pipes, dead vegetation near gas lines, or unusually high gas bills. If a gas leak is suspected, evacuate immediately and contact your gas provider.
Can gas, electrical and smoke alarm safety checks be completed in one visit?
Yes. Taskforce combines gas, electrical and smoke alarm safety checks into a single appointment where possible. This reduces disruption for tenants, saves time for property managers and landlords, and streamlines compliance management.
