Hi Nick When a new boiler is installed you should be given the manufacturer installation manual. In this manual there is a section called the benchmark. This must be completed when the engineer carries out the commissioning of the appliance. The engineer should sign this and ask the client to sign it also. The engineer should complete any guarantees and register the boiler with gas safe if required. The engineer should flush the complete system with cleanser and drain fully. The system should have inhibitor added on refilling and this is noted in the benchmark book. The engineer must relight all gas appliances and carry out visual checks to ensure safe. Any unsafe situations should be documented and paperwork completed if at risk or immediately dangerous. If selling a property or renting a property then a gas Safety certificate is normally issued.
