Hi

Our 1 bed flat rental is fitted with Baxi Brazillia gas heaters. These are annually inspected by a gas safe engineer. We changed to another gas safe engineer and he said these heaters were no longer allowable in rental flats. The other gas safe engineer never mentioned this.

How do I find out if they are allowed?

You ask your 2nd gas safe engineer to show you the source information that states they are no longer allowable in rental flats.

I'm not saying he is wrong, but is is not adequate to just assert that something is not allowed.

Baxi Brazillia gas heaters are still sold. Presumably they are safe for use in a domestic property. If that is the case, it does not seem correct that they would be prohibited in a rental property.

Ask to see the source.
