Boiler test

[J. Tranter]

When pressure testing a boiler how long do you leave it under pressure?

Thank you

In the UK the boiler should be held at twice working pressure for a minimum of 10 mins, or however long it takes to inspect for signs of leakage.

Make sure the boiler is full of water not air and raise the pressure no more than 10% at a time once above working pressure.
