Our Inspection Process

Insaprisk has over 30 years of experience evaluating boiler hardware. Our inspection process has been refined over the years to ensure efficiency, accuracy, and customer satisfaction. We understand the importance of performing detailed inspections and take this responsibility seriously. Below are the typical steps we take during an annual boiler inspection:

    The inspector will review the boiler log book, maintenance records, and previous inspection reports.

  • 2

    CHECK THE BOILERS EXTERIOR
    The inspector will examine the exterior of the boiler for signs of damage or corrosion. They will check for any leaks, cracks, or dents in the boiler shell or associated piping.

  • 3

    CHECK THE BOILER’S SAFETY DEVICES
    The inspector will verify that all safety devices, such as pressure relief valves, low-water cutoffs, and flame sensors, are functioning properly.

  • 4

    INSPECT THE BURNER
    The inspector will examine the burner assembly for signs of wear and tear, such as damaged insulation or warped parts. They will also check for proper combustion and flame patterns.

  • 5

    TEST THE CONTROLS
    The inspector will test the boiler’s control system to ensure it is operating correctly. This includes verifying the operation of limit switches, temperature controls, and pressure gauges.

  • 6

    VERIFY THAT THE BOILER MEETS CODE
    The inspector will verify that the boiler meets local and national codes and regulations.

  • 7

    INSPECT THE ASSOCIATED PIPING AND COMPONENTS
    The inspector will examine the piping, valves, pumps, and other components associated with the boiler to ensure that they are in good condition and properly sized for the application.

  • 8

    REVIEW THE RECOMMENDATION
    The inspector will provide a report with any findings, recommendations, or required repairs. The inspector will also specify the time frame within which repairs must be made to ensure that the boiler remains in compliance with regulations and operates safely.

Additional Inspection Services

    CHECK THE BOILER’S INTERIOR
    The inspector will open the boiler and check for signs of corrosion, scale buildup, or erosion on the tubes, flue, and other internal components. (only applicable for internal inspections)

Boiler Compliance

The Boiler Inspection Cycle is from January 1 to December 31. Low-Pressure Boiler and High-Pressure Boiler Internal and External Inspections must be performed within this cycle (i.e. calendar year). All inspection reports are due within fourteen (14) calendar days from the date of performing the inspection. For example, an inspection performed on December 31 must be received by DOB no later than January 14 of the following year.

The New York State Department of Labor’s Division Of Safety And Health enforces these regulations through a monitoring program that conducts periodic inspections to ensure compliance with applicable rules and standards. In addition to ensuring compliance with safety standards, periodic inspections also help identify potential problems before they become serious issues. Businesses that fail to comply with inspection requirements may face administrative penalties or even criminal charges depending on the severity of the violation.

NYS Boiler Compliance

Low-Pressure Boiler Compliance

If you own a property, it is your responsibility to hire a licensed professional to conduct low-pressure boiler inspections. Only qualified installers licensed by the Department of Buildings or authorized boiler insurance companies can perform these inspections.

Annual inspections must be conducted, and inspection reports must be filed for H-stamped and E-stamped boilers (not HLW-stamped hot water heaters) located in the following property types:

  • Residential Buildings With Six or More Families
  • Commercial and mixed-use buildings, regardless of boiler BTU capacity. NOTE: A mixed-use building has both commercial and 1-5 residential units.
  • Residential buildings classified as Single Room Occupancy (SRO) dwellings

Low-pressure boilers that have a heating input of 100,000 BTUs or less need to be inspected if they are outside a single apartment and in a property that has six or more residential units or is a commercial or mixed-use property, regardless of how many units the boiler serves.

Boiler Inspection Frequently Asked Questions

The cost of a boiler inspection varies depending on the type and size of the boiler, as well as local regulations. Generally, a low-pressure boiler inspection in New York City may cost around $400-$800 per unit for an external inspection with control testing. For more complicated inspections or internal inspections, additional fees may be charged. It is important to consult with a licensed and experienced boiler inspector to get an accurate estimate for your specific situation.

Yes, Insparisk offers a best-price guarantee as well as a violation fee reimbursement guarantee. The policies for each of these guarantees are stated above.

Low-pressure boilers located in residential buildings with six or more families, commercial and mixed-use buildings, and residential buildings classified as single-room occupancy dwellings must be inspected annually. Boilers in residential buildings with five families or fewer and a single boiler located within a single dwelling unit that supplies heat only to that unit are exempt from annual inspections.

A boiler inspector examines the internal and external components of a boiler system, including piping, valves, sensors, insulation, and safety features. They check for signs of corrosion or damage to ensure proper operation. The inspector will also make sure that the operating pressures and temperatures are correctly set. Once the inspection is complete, a full report detailing any issues found is generated for review. This report can be used to address any necessary repairs or maintenance work that needs to be done in order to keep the boiler running safely and efficiently.

A boiler inspection typically takes between one to two hours to complete, depending on the complexity and size of the boiler system.

Insparisk offers filing services that can help you get your inspection report properly filed with the Department of Buildings (DOB).

Fines for failure to comply with NYC boiler inspection regulations can vary, but start at $300 per violation. It is important to remember that failure to keep boilers in good working condition could potentially result in more serious legal ramifications including criminal charges or other civil penalties such as eviction proceedings for building owners or tenants.
