  Gas safety week in Salford
City West will be supporting gas safety week which will be taking place 12th -18th September 2011. Gas safety week aims to raise awareness of gas safety and the importance of taking care of your gas appliances. The consequences of badly fitted and poorly serviced gas appliances can be damaging and can cause gas leaks, fires, explosions and carbon monoxide poisoning. Carbon monoxide is a highly poisonous gas and can be potentially deadly. You can’t see it, smell it or taste it and it can kill quickly with no warning Learn more about the symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning. As your landlord we have a duty to keep all gas appliances supplied to you in good condition. City West gas safety checks are carried out every 12 months and we have an excellent current performance of 100%. The work must be done by a Gas Safe registered engineer. By taking care of your gas appliances properly you are taking care of your home and the people around you. In order to keep you and your family gas safe follow these tips: * make sure only a Gas Safe registered engineer works on your gas appliances * make sure gas appliances have a regular service and an annual gas safety check * always check the engineer's Gas Safe Register ID card For gas safety advice or to find and check an engineer visit the Gas Safe Register website at www.GasSafeRegister.co.uk.
