Compliance certificates

A compliance certificate should include, on the installation details, a detailed list of all the plumbing work completed by you. If the work has been started but not been completed by you, a compliance certificate is still required to be provided and should include the installation details for the portion of the work completed by you.

All practitioners responsible for supplying compliance certificates are required to do so within 14 days of completing the work, regardless of whether or not the work has been paid for.

Examples of types of information which could be included:

• Gas pipework installed and tested from meter to hot plate. Pipework terminated at future connection points for solar hot water booster and ducted heater.
• Did not complete installation as contract terminated by builder on 1/1/2018.
