The United Kingdom has a comprehensive system of market surveillance. For consumer product safety, this is undertaken primarily by local authority Trading Standards.

The UK is not currently participating in a PROSAFE study on patio heaters. Reports undertaken by PROSAFE on behalf of the Commission are publicly available on the PROSAFE website.
