![]() Our unique process includes specific checklists developed by teams of engineers that have researched codes and manufacturers, as well as field validation. This kind of inspection sometimes means that you could be “technically” in compliance with archaic and antiquated equipment that is 50 or more years old and has little in the way of modern new safeties During our inspections, however, we screen for code compliance, maintenance and installation issues, operational issues, technological advances that can enhance safety and obsolete/recalled components. There’s typically no screening for how far away from the most recent codes the old “grand fathered” technology is. Also, in many cases, jurisdictional inspectors can only evaluate equipment for its code compliance when it was installed. Their responsibilities do not include system issues such as the gas piping at the site, the fuel train component settings, control logic, and/or the burner flame pattern. They are only supposed to review pressure vessel issues, including air tanks, water tanks, and boilers. In many cases, jurisdictional inspectors have their hands tied. ![]()
