Boiler Safety Section

Welcome

The Boiler Safety Program is responsible for the administration and enforcement of Florida Statute 554, "The Boiler Safety Act." Florida Administrative Code Chapter 69A-51, provides boiler safety rules to safeguard life, limb, and property by specific minimum standards for construction, installation, operation, maintenance, and repairs of boilers located at public assembly locations.

Boilers are inspected by the deputy boiler inspectors employed by the state and special inspectors employed by the companies authorized to write insurance in the State of Florida. The Boiler Safety Program issues Certificates of Compliance to those boilers passing inspection. A Certificate of Compliance is valid for one year for high pressure boilers and two years for a low pressure boiler.
