Annual Boiler Steam Test

Annual Boiler Steam Test

We recently had our annual boiler safety test inspection. It is carried out by an independent boiler safety inspector. The test is to make sure our boiler meets all the safety requirements.

Boiler Steam Test

Part of the test is to check that the steam safety valve on the boiler is lifting at the prescribe pressure. After successfully testing. It’s now full steam ahead for this year’s steaming days at Crofton Beam Engines.
