According to the Chartered Institute of Plumbing and Heating Engineering (CIPHE), the industry plays a critical role in public health, safety, and the implementation of emerging technologies. Gas Safe Register maintains over 140,000 engineers and 76,000 businesses, ensuring high standards across the sector.
