3. Acceptance of boiler installation, maintenance and renovation. After the completion of the construction, the construction unit shall report the water pressure test and installation supervision of the boiler to the Special Equipment Inspection Institute of the State Bureau of Quality and Technical Supervision. After passing the qualification, the State Quality and Technical Supervision Bureau, the State Special Equipment Inspection Institute, and the County Quality and Technical Supervision Bureau will participate in the whole experience.

4. Registration of the boiler.

6. Inspection of the boiler. The boiler shall be inspected once a year, and boilers that have not been inspected safely shall not be used. The safety accessories of the boiler are regularly inspected once a year. The pressure gauges are checked once every six months.
