Why Gas Safety Still Matters in 2025
Millions of UK homes still rely on gas. Safe installations and regular servicing save lives.
Why It Still Matters?
Gas is Still in Millions of Homes
Even in a low-carbon future, over a million gas boilers are still installed in the UK each year. Thousands more continue to operate in homes that rely on LPG, oil, and older heating systems.
That’s why gas safety remains critical — for homeowners, landlords, engineers, and local authorities alike.
