What Is a CP42 Gas Safety Certificate?
A CP42 certificate is the recognised commercial gas safety certificate for catering establishments. It confirms that your commercial gas appliances, pipework and safety systems have been inspected and tested by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Following a successful inspection, you'll receive certification to support your compliance records, insurance requirements and Environmental Health inspections.
When you book your commercial gas safety certificate with Dixon Technical Services Ltd, we will:
Inspect Every Commercial Gas Appliance
Every appliance is individually examined to ensure it is operating safely, efficiently and in accordance with current gas safety regulations.
Carry Out Combustion Analysis
Combustion testing confirms appliances are burning gas correctly and producing safe combustion readings. Poor combustion can reduce efficiency while increasing safety risks if left unresolved.
Test Ventilation & Interlock Systems
Commercial kitchens rely on effective ventilation to operate safely. We inspect extraction systems, airflow and gas interlocks to ensure appliances cannot operate without adequate ventilation, helping reduce the risk of dangerous carbon monoxide build-up.
Check Pipework & Gas Tightness
Gas pipework, flexible connections and isolation valves are inspected for condition, integrity and compliance, helping identify developing issues before they become major problems.
Issue Your CP42 Certificate
Following a successful inspection, you'll receive clear documentation suitable for insurance providers, landlords, Environmental Health Officers and your own compliance records.
You can verify Gas Safe registration requirements through the Gas Safe Register.
