Supplied appliance guide

Do landlords need PAT testing for supplied appliances?

Landlords often ask about PAT testing because many rental properties include supplied appliances. LettingReady treats supplied appliances as a practical check item so they are not forgotten.

What to record

  • Whether the landlord is supplying appliances such as a fridge, cooker, washing machine or kettle.
  • Whether any appliance safety checks, user manuals or service records exist.
  • Whether damaged or old appliances need professional inspection or replacement.

How to use this in the checklist

  • If appliances are supplied, keep a clear note of what is included.
  • If appliances are not supplied, record that too. This helps avoid a blank or unclear checklist item later.
