Says who?


http://www.hse.gov.uk/gas/domestic/faqownerocc.htm 3rd question down.



Do I have to use a Gas Safe registered engineer to complete gas work?



Anyone employed to work on gas appliances in domestic premises must be a
Gas Safe registered engineer link to external website and competent in
that area of gas work. The gas engineer's competencies are clearly marked
on the back of the engineer's Gas Safe Register ID card. If in any doubt
you can ring Gas Safe Register 0800 408 5500 or check their website link
to external website to see if the engineer is registered.



It's the magic word "EMPLOYED". You are not employing yourself if you work
on your own equipment.
