The Boilers and Pressure Vessels discipline of Safety Services is responsible for establishing and interpreting the codes, standards and respective regulations under the Safety Codes Act. Municipal Affairs works in partnership with the Safety Codes Council and the Alberta Boilers Safety Association (ABSA) to develop and provide relevant information to the boiler and pressure vessels industry.

A permit for a boiler or a pressure vessel is called a Certificate of Inspection Permit. A Certificate of Inspection Permit is required prior to the installation of a boiler or pressure vessel being placed in service. To arrange for a Certificate of Inspection Permit, contact the Alberta Boilers Safety Association.
