CP44 Mobile Catering Gas Safety Certificates
Mobile catering businesses that rely on LPG systems must maintain high safety standards to protect staff, customers, and property. A CP44 gas safety inspection assesses the condition of gas appliances, regulators, pipework, and ventilation systems within the catering unit. Holding an up-to-date CP44 certificate demonstrates compliance with industry safety requirements and supports the safe operation of your business.

Mobile Catering LPG Safety Process
Understanding the Gas Supply Route
A professionally installed LPG system in a mobile catering unit includes several key safety components. Explore each stage of the gas flow process to learn how inspections help maintain safe and reliable operation.
LPG Gas Cylinder
Gas cylinders should be stored upright in a dedicated, well-ventilated compartment away from cooking equipment. During inspection, cylinder condition, security, and storage compliance are carefully assessed.
Flexible Hose Assembly
Flexible gas hoses connect the cylinder to the gas system. We check for signs of wear, damage, age, and secure connections to ensure safe LPG delivery.
Gas Pressure Regulator
The regulator controls gas pressure for consistent appliance performance. Our inspection verifies correct operation and confirms that all safety protection features are functioning properly.
Emergency Shut-Off Valve
An easily accessible isolation valve allows the gas supply to be switched off quickly in an emergency. We ensure the valve is clearly identified and operates effectively.
Copper Gas Pipework
Fixed gas pipework distributes LPG throughout the catering unit. We test the system for leaks, damage, and pressure integrity to maintain safe operation.
Catering Gas Appliances
Gas-powered fryers, grills, ovens, and other appliances are inspected for safe performance. Safety devices, burner operation, and combustion efficiency are checked to help reduce potential risks.
