Can you work on radiators if you're not Gas Safe registered? Yes, you can perform certain maintenance tasks on a radiator without needing to be Gas Safe registered. Radiators are part of the central heating system and are not directly connected to the gas supply.

When most people think of plumbers, they often think of people who fix sinks, toilets, and other water- and sewage-related systems, appliances, and fixtures. Not only do plumbers do all of that and more, plumbers are also often the most qualified professionals when it comes to installing gas piping.

The main difference between a plumber and a heating engineer is that a plumber does not carry any gas safe qualifications. On the flip side, a heating engineer that mainly does boiler repairs is unlikely to work on any other aspects of your heating system.

The Council for Registered Gas Installers (CORGI) operates a voluntary registration scheme for gas installers in the United Kingdom.
