The Boiler Program ensures public safety by performing safety inspections and issuing operating permits for more than 116,000 boilers and unfired pressure vessels throughout the state. State law requires a permit before you install, reinstall or move any boiler or unfired pressure vessel.

• We investigate accidents involving boilers or pressure vessels.
• We help owners, manufacturers, and repair firms understand the codes, rules and regulations.
• We audit and review manufacturers of boilers and pressure vessels for conformance with national construction standards.
• We administer national board and state examinations.

If you have any questions or need to report an accident, please contact the Boiler program:
