Protect Your Property with Licensed Safety Evaluations

Steam boilers operate under intense pressure and heat. Without regular safety checks, even a small malfunction can lead to dangerous conditions and costly system damage. In Minnesota, commercial boiler safety isn’t just good practice — it is a legal requirement.

What Is a Boiler Safety Check

A boiler safety check is a thorough evaluation of your steam system’s critical controls and protective components. This service includes:



  • Inspection of safety and relief valves

  • Verification of low-water cutoff operation

  • Pressure control calibration and settings review

  • Emergency shutoff system test

  • Temperature control and monitoring review

  • Flame safeguard equipment checks

  • Fuel shutoff and delivery system inspection

  • General system safety condition report

Michael documents all findings and provides guidance for any necessary repairs or adjustments.

Why Boiler Safety Checks Are Essential

Commercial boiler systems face consistent stress, particularly during colder months. Without regular safety checks, systems can develop:


  • Faulty safety shutoffs

  • Pressure buildup risks

  • Leaks or water level failures

  • Sensor and gauge inaccuracies

  • Incomplete combustion or flame irregularities

These issues not only endanger the system but also the people and property within your building. Michael’s service is focused on preventing failures before they occur — not just identifying them afterward.
