If you have a gas installation in your home or business in South Africa, it’s legally required to have a Certificate of Conformity (COC). But what is it? Why is it important? And who can issue it?
At Galeforce1, we’re certified LP gas installers serving Newcastle and Northern Natal. Here’s everything you need to know about the COC.
What is a Gas Certificate of Conformity?
A COC is an official document that proves your gas installation:
- Has been installed by a qualified, registered technician
- Meets all South African safety regulations (SANS 10087)
- Is safe for daily use in a home or business environment
When Do You Need a COC?
- After a new gas installation (hob, geyser, fireplace, etc.)
- When selling a property — it’s a legal requirement
- After a repair, maintenance, or modification of a gas system
- For insurance and safety inspections
What Happens If You Don’t Have One?
Not having a COC can lead to:
- Insurance claims being rejected
- Fines or legal issues
- Unsafe gas setups that put lives at risk
