SAQCC Gas: what it is and how to check your installer

SAQCC Gas is the body that registers gas practitioners in South Africa. Under the Pressure Equipment Regulations, only a registered practitioner can legally install, alter or certify a gas installation, so SAQCC Gas registration is what lets an installer issue your gas certificate of compliance.

What registration means

A registered gas practitioner has been assessed for a category of gas work — for example domestic LPG installations. Registration is personal: it belongs to the practitioner, not the company, and it covers only the categories they are registered for.

How to check an installer

  1. Ask for the registration details before work starts: the practitioner's name and registration number.
  2. Check it with SAQCC Gas on their official website (saqccgas.co.za).
  3. Check the category covers your job — a domestic LPG installation needs an LPG category.
  4. Check the certificate names the practitioner who did the work.

SAQCC Gas and your certificate of compliance

The gas certificate of compliance is issued by the registered practitioner after inspecting and testing the installation. The certificate is only as good as the registration behind it — which is why the check above matters when you're selling a house.

What SAQCC Gas does not do

SAQCC Gas registers practitioners; it doesn't install gas or quote for jobs. For an installation or a certificate in Johannesburg or the West Rand, call 083 498 1693.
