Our Commercial Catering Gas Services in Manchester

CP42 Commercial Kitchen Gas Safety Certificate Manchester

The CP42 is the legally required annual gas safety certificate for commercial kitchens. It covers all gas appliances within the kitchen — ranges, ovens, fryers, grills, salamanders, pasta cookers, bratt pans, combi ovens, and any other gas-fired catering equipment — along with the gas interlock system, ventilation, and gas pipework.CP42 certification is a legal requirement for any business operating a commercial kitchen in the UK. It is routinely checked by Environmental Health Officers during food business inspections, required by insurers, and forms part of the compliance documentation required by hotel chains, care home operators, and institutional catering managers.Our Gas Safe engineers carry out CP42 inspections across Manchester with minimum disruption to your kitchen operation — scheduling inspections outside service hours wherever possible. Certificates are issued on the day of inspection, clearly documented and ready for audit.

Gas Interlock System Testing & Certification Manchester

A gas interlock system — also known as a gas proving system or kitchen gas interlock — is a safety device that automatically cuts the gas supply to kitchen appliances if the ventilation system is not running or fails. Gas interlock systems are a legal requirement under current Building Regulations and gas safety standards for commercial kitchens.We test, commission, and certify gas interlock systems across Manchester — verifying correct operation of the proving sequence, checking all interlocked appliances respond correctly to a ventilation failure, and issuing the required certification. We also repair and replace faulty interlock systems and can advise on upgrades where older systems no longer meet current standards.

Catering Appliance Servicing & Maintenance

Regular servicing of commercial catering appliances extends equipment life, maintains efficiency, and reduces the risk of breakdowns during busy service periods. Our engineers service all types of gas-fired catering equipment including:

• Commercial ranges and ovens
• Fryers and griddles
• Salamanders and char grills
• Combi ovens and combination steamers
• Pasta cookers and brat pans
• Commercial wok burners
• Gas-fired hot cupboards and bain maries
• Commercial barbecue and tandoor equipment

We work on all major catering equipment brands including Rational, Falcon, Blue Seal, Hobart, Electrolux Professional, Lincat, MKN, Henny Penny, Manitowoc, and all other commercial catering manufacturers.

Our engineers provide fast response commercial kitchen gas repairs across Manchester — diagnosing faults on ranges, ovens, fryers, grills, and all other gas catering equipment and carrying out efficient repairs to get your kitchen back operational as quickly as possible.

LPG Commercial Kitchen Services Manchester

Not all Manchester commercial kitchens are connected to the mains gas network — some venues, particularly in older city centre buildings and rural Greater Manchester locations, operate on LPG. Our engineers are fully qualified to service, repair, and certify LPG gas installations in commercial kitchens, including bulk LPG supply systems, cylinder manifold installations, LPG pipework, and all LPG-fired catering appliances.We carry out CP42 certification for LPG kitchens and can advise on LPG system upgrades, safety improvements, and conversions.

We work alongside kitchen fit-out contractors and equipment suppliers to ensure installations are completed safely and on schedule.
