Purpose and Procedure for Drafting the Document

What Is a Gas Appliance Commissioning Checklist?

This checklist documents all steps required to safely commission a gas appliance after installation or major modification. It covers pre-commissioning checks, commissioning tests, and final sign-off.

Why Use This Template?

The online template ensures no critical step is missed, from gas tightness testing to safety device verification. It provides a clear record for the engineer and customer.

Key Sections

The checklist includes a commissioning header, pre-commissioning checks (tightness test, ventilation, flue), commissioning tests (ignition, flame, CO reading), and completion with signatures.

New Gas Appliance Installation

After installing a new boiler, cooker, or heater, the commissioning checklist verifies that the appliance operates safely and efficiently.

Major Modification or Replacement

When an existing appliance is replaced or the gas system is significantly modified, commissioning ensures the new setup meets safety standards.

Landlord Safety Compliance

Landlords may require commissioning records for new installations in rental properties to demonstrate compliance with gas safety regulations.

Warranty and Insurance Requirements

Manufacturer warranties and insurance policies often require documented commissioning to validate coverage.

  1. 1

    Perform Pre-Commissioning Checks

    Conduct visual inspection of pipework, gas tightness test, ventilation check, and flue check before starting the appliance.

  2. 2

    Execute Commissioning Tests

    Test appliance ignition, flame appearance, safety devices, CO reading, and overall operation.

  3. 3

    Complete and Sign

    Record the overall result (passed/failed), add notes, and obtain signatures from the engineer and customer.

Photo Report Generator

Attach photos of the appliance, nameplate, and gas meter reading to the commissioning checklist for a complete record.
