Who typically conducts a "Special inspection" of a boiler?

A "Special inspection" of a boiler is typically conducted by the executive director, boiler chief, or boiler deputy. This is because these individuals usually hold higher authority and specialized training, enabling them to assess the boiler's condition and compliance with safety regulations. Their expertise is critical in evaluating complex systems and making authoritative decisions regarding the operational status of the boiler.

The roles of local inspectors and trained technicians are often more focused on routine inspections and maintenance, which may not encompass the specific authority or expertise required for special inspections. Licensed boiler technicians primarily perform the hands-on work related to the installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of boiler systems, rather than conducting formal inspections that require a higher level of oversight and regulatory compliance understanding.
