The city of London: Periodic Inspection Report and Gas Safety Certificate

The city of London: Periodic Inspection Report and Gas Safety Certificate

The London Assembly as well as the laws of England necessitate the citizens of London to have certain standards on usage of resources; both natural and artificial. There are standards which you should follow and there are standards that you would want to have for yourselves. People often think living by standards is to get away from fines or penalties. But in the case of Periodic Inspection Reports and Gas Safety Certificates, these are benefiting the holder than the issuer.

The Periodic Inspection Report London or PIR London is not something just for London. The Periodic Inspection report (PIR) is a report that can be produced by authorized qualified institutions to a landlord to ensure that the properties at the landlord’s responsibility have proper supply of electricity. When it is PIR London, it means that the property is in the London metropolitan area. There are companies which can issue the PIR after doing an evaluation on the premises. As the name states, these reports are periodic; they can be done as often as the landlord prefers. Once the report is positive, the land owner has the benefit of lending the property for rental with the borrowers having a trust on the electric system of the property. However, you are not required by the government to hold periodic inspection reports.

The gas safety certificate are slightly different that the government demands a gas safety certificate if you have gas appliances in a property that you are lending for rent. It is not stated as the gas safety certificate in the constitutions, but is referred to as the gas safety records; meaning, periodic checks should be done on the reliability of the gas appliances and the record should be kept. However the wording “gas safety certificate” currently refers the gas safety records the government requires.

Both of these PIR London and gas safety certificate have the benefits more towards the property owner than the government. They ensure the quality of the asset being rented; the asset borrower will see it as more valued than an asset with no such certification or record. There are a few agencies that are qualified and are approved by the government that they can produce the gas safety certificate or gas safety record and the PIR London (PIR Report London). If an owner understands the positive effect these reports cause on their property and therefore increase the potential rental income, they would surely keep these documents updated.
