Many residential and commercial buildings use boilers to provide heat for occupants. In the Bronx and other boroughs, these devices are subject to an annual inspection. HBNY Plumbing & Heating is certified to provide low-pressure boiler inspection services to Bronx properties.
The boiler in your Bronx building works hard to keep the occupants comfortable. However, the high temperatures and stresses of operation take their toll over time. A malfunctioning boiler may simply fail to heat the building, but it can also be a safety hazard.
To prevent damage and injuries, New York City mandates annual inspections of boilers in certain types of buildings. The licensed professional who handles this task will identify any defects or causes for concern.
As the property owner, you are responsible for arranging an inspection by a certified professional. The HBNY Plumbing & Heating experts have the credentials to conduct low-pressure boiler inspections at Bronx properties and throughout the city.
If you have concerns about scheduling a low-pressure boiler inspection at your Bronx property, our team is ready to help. Here are some questions we often receive.
Buildings that require a low-pressure boiler inspection must do so once a year. The official Boiler Inspection Cycle runs from January 1 to December 31.
Residential buildings with six or more families, commercial and mixed-use buildings, and residential buildings classified as Single Room Occupancy dwellings require an annual inspection.
The late filing fee for inspections is $50 per month per boiler. However, filing after the late filing period will result in a $1,000 failure-to-file penalty per boiler.
You must address any defects within 90 days of the inspection. Once you have fixed the problem, the inspector will return, confirm the repair, and submit an affirmation of correction. Dangerous conditions will result in the immediate shutdown of the boiler.
