Risk Assessment Description:

This hot works blowtorch LPG safety checklist template from Health & Safety Zone helps plumbers, heating engineers and Gas Safe registered professionals ensure safe execution of blow‑torch operations using liquefied petroleum gas.

It covers all essential checks including competence, permit to work, area preparation, LPG cylinder and torch condition, fire‑watch, personal protective equipment and emergency provisions. It references the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and the DSEAR 2002 alongside HSE hot‑work guidance (HS(G)5) and INDG314.

Use this checklist for:

  • Pre‑work checks – confirm permits, equipment and environment are safe before ignition.
  • In‑process monitoring – ensure fire‑watch and gas safety are maintained during work.
  • Post‑work sign‑off – verify area is clear, equipment is secured and records completed.

Each item is answered Yes, No or N/A – any No answer must be resolved before proceeding.

To use the checklist, tick Yes, No or N/A for each question. Any No response must be investigated and corrected before work continues. Record the findings and keep the completed checklist on site for inspection.

Fully editable and shareable — customise the questions to your site, download as a PDF and share with your team.

Compliant with: Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005; DSEAR 2002.
