Statutory Certification
Property owners and company directors have a number of important legal responsibilities
with regard to ensuring that properties' equipment and services are regularly tested and correctly maintained.
Where a property is used by the public, these requirements are even more onerous.
As well as potentially breaking the law, those who do not perform regular statutory
tests are exposing themselves to other risks such as invalidating building insurance cover.
Regular inspection and certification must be undertaken on systems and equipment such
as:
Air Conditioning Systems
Auto & Manual Doors and Shutters
Dock Levellers
Emergency Lighting
Fire Detection
Fixed Circuit Testing
Heating & Ventilation Installation
Legionella Audits
Lifts
Portable Appliance Testing (PAT)
Smoke Vents
Sprinklers
etc.
To ensure compliance, tests must take place
within certain timescales and signed certificates be readily available at the property for inspection as
and when required.
There are various recognised testing formats
that can be used such as the 'NICEIC Periodic Inspection and Test Report', which is for electrical installations.
