Dangers of not having a HETAS certificate
It’s essential your home is protected by using a HETAS registered installer, to be completely sure your heating equipment will be installed correctly, and to install approved flue lining systems or solid fuel appliances. There are some dangers that can come with using faulty heating equipment, the most significant being exposure to carbon monoxide.
Another risk of not having a HETAS certificate is that you may be refused for home insurance if your current solid fuel appliance doesn’t comply with all legal building regulations, further complicating the process of buying, moving or letting, as well as jeopardising your health.
If you have any uncertainties regarding the safety and compliance of wood burning or multi fuel stove, the best thing to do is obtain a HETAS certificate through an approved installer such as City Stove Installs.
