Gas plumbing problems can be costly and dangerous — especially in older rental properties. Here’s what rental property owners should watch out for:
Common Gas Plumbing Issues
✔ Leaks around joints and fittings – caused by wear or poor installation; can lead to carbon monoxide hazards.
✔ Faulty gas appliances – inefficient heating or hot water units that need servicing.
✔ Inadequate ventilation – can cause dangerous spillage and reduce combustion efficiency.
✔ Poor maintenance history – neglect can lead to expensive emergency repairs.
How to Avoid These Issues
🔹 Schedule biennial gas safety checks with a licensed gasfitter.
🔹 Address tenant complaints early to prevent escalation.
🔹 Keep detailed records of previous service history.
🔹 Upgrade old plumbing systems before they fail.
