Boiler inspections can be broken into three broad categories: fireside inspections, waterside inspections, and exterior inspections. Most companies mandate routine inspections to ensure boilers are maintained in safe operating condition.

The Inspecting the Fireside of a Boiler, Part 2 training course explains specific things to look for when doing a fireside inspection. It includes techniques and procedures for inspecting:

• Superheaters and reheaters
• Soot blowers
• Bottom ash hoppers
• Economizers
• Baffles
• Boiler bottom seals

This online course is part of the Boiler Repair training series.
