What is a general requirement of the location of the installation of a boiler? ANS: Adequate clearance
from combustile construction
What temperature must the materials remain under during combustion? ANS: 170 degrees
What is a requirement for the access of the boiler? ANS: Access for operation and maintenance must
not be hazardous
What is required upon installation to operate a boiler? ANS: Inspection and test resulting in equipment
use permit from commissioner
How often should a boiler be inspected? ANS: Once a year
What documentation is required from a certificate holder? ANS: Owners annual statement
What is required to hydrostatically test upon installation and who should perform these tests? ANS:
Liquid fuel piping and fuel oil storage tanks by the installing contractor
At what pressure should piping be tested? ANS: 1/2 max working pressure but less than pressure
required for storage tank
At what pressure should oil storage tanks be tested? ANS: At 1 1/2x max working pressure but never <
25 psi
How long should hydrostatic pressure be maintained? ANS: Until all joints and connections are
inspected for leaks and at 30 minutes have passed
, Who is responsible for testing gas distribution piping? ANS: Installing contractor before closing and
operation
What is described on instruction cards and where are they located? ANS: Care and operation of oil
burner located near the equipment.
What type of burners require a C of F holder to operate them? ANS: Any boiler that is not automatic or
requires preheating.
What is the license holder responsible for after repair? ANS: Inspecting the repairs, and functioning of all
control devices and positioning of valves.
What type of heat and combustion equipment are required with the air pollution control code? ANS: All
burners fire with solid, liquid, or gas. Including rubbish burners/incinerators.
What temperature are the products of combustion upon exit in low temperature equipment? ANS: Less
than 600 degrees
What temperature are the products of combustion upon exit in medium temperature equipment? ANS:
6001000
What temperature are the products of combustion upon exit in high temperature equipment? ANS:
1000+
How much cfm of air be capable of per gallon of oil per hour? ANS: 36 cfm
If ventilation is supplied mechanically, what is required of the pressure? ANS: It must be greater than the
atmospheric pressure outdoors
