This one-day programme is designed to help businesses, property professionals, facilities personnel and other responsible persons understand the practical requirements of SANS 10087-1:2026 and how those requirements affect LPG installations in commercial, residential and workplace environments.

The course focuses on the responsibilities of organisations and personnel who own, manage, supervise or work around LPG installations. It explains key safety, compliance and operational principles in a practical and accessible way.

The aim is to help participants recognise good practice, understand common compliance issues and make better-informed decisions when dealing with LPG systems, contractors and installation work.

This programme is suitable for:

• business owners and managers

• property managers and landlords

• facilities and maintenance personnel

• health and safety officers

• hospitality and retail personnel

• body corporates and property administrators

• procurement and operations personnel

• employees responsible for sites where LPG is installed or used

• professionals who need a practical understanding of LPG compliance without becoming gas installers

The course provides a practical overview of areas such as:

• the purpose and application of SANS 10087-1:2026

• responsibilities surrounding LPG installations

• cylinder placement and storage considerations

• separation distances and common site risks

• LPG pipework, valves and system components

• ventilation requirements

• appliance installation considerations

• flueing and combustion-gas safety

• pressure testing and the importance of system integrity

• Certificates of Compliance and relevant documentation

• identifying common unsafe or non-compliant conditions

• understanding when specialist LPG assistance is required

• managing LPG-related risks within a business or property environment

The focus is on helping participants understand what they should look for, what questions they should ask and how to support safer LPG use within their organisation.

This is a one-day training programme and can be delivered to individuals or groups in person or online.

Training is instructor-led and may include:

• presentations and technical explanations

• practical examples

• photographs and installation scenarios

• discussion of common compliance issues

• interpretation of relevant requirements

• workplace and property-based case studies

• question-and-answer sessions

For business clients, the programme can also be tailored to reflect the organisation’s particular sites, LPG applications or operational environment.

There is no compulsory assessment at the end of the standard course.

Participants who complete the programme receive a Gas Uni Certificate of Attendance.

Where a business or organisational client requires its employees or delegates to be formally assessed, an assessment can be incorporated into the programme by prior arrangement.

This allows organisations to confirm participants’ understanding of the course material where internal competency, compliance or training records require it.

The programme is particularly well suited to company and organisational group training.

Gas Uni can adapt the course to place greater emphasis on matters relevant to the client, such as:

• property and facilities management

• hospitality or commercial kitchens

• workplace LPG safety

• site inspections

• responsibilities of managers and employees

• contractor management

• recurring compliance concerns

• specific types of LPG installations used by the organisation

Where required, company-specific assessment or knowledge checks can also be included.
