Where is the certificate of inspection placed?

1. In the boiler room

2. Near the main entrance

3. As close to the boiler as possible

4. On the control panel

The correct answer is: As close to the boiler as possible

The certificate of inspection is required to be placed as close to the boiler as possible. This positioning allows for immediate access and visibility to anyone in the vicinity who may need to verify the certification of the boiler. Keeping the certificate near the boiler helps ensure compliance with safety regulations and makes it easier for inspectors or maintenance personnel to confirm that the boiler has passed its inspections and is operating within the legal and safety standards set by the regulatory authorities. This fosters an environment of safety and accountability within the facility. Placing the certificate in locations such as the boiler room or on the control panel would not necessarily provide the same level of visibility and accessibility. Similarly, positioning it near the main entrance may not effectively serve the purpose of ensuring that those who work directly with the boiler can readily access this critical information.
