A legal requirement for pressurised steam boilers

Under the Pressure Systems Safety Regulations (PSSR 2000), annual testing of steam pressure vessels is mandatory. Our trained and fully certified coffee machine engineers examine your espresso boiler pressure, safety valves, and the boiler itself — keeping your business compliant while safeguarding your equipment.

Routine inspections do more than satisfy safety law. They prevent unexpected, costly breakdowns. Think of a boiler inspection like an MOT for your car — identifying issues early through regular testing keeps your machine running efficiently and your service flowing.

  • Borescope (pinhole-camera) examination of the boiler interior (if applicable)
  • Test of pressure safety valves and pipework using a calibrated hand pump
  • Replacement of any necessary parts
  • Re-pressurisation and certification that everything functions like-new

How much does a PSSR inspection cost?

ASSISTED PSSR

£250

where your insurer inspects

Some insurers prefer to conduct the inspection themselves. We assist with the breakdown and testing of the machine so their inspector can complete the examination.

Boiler inspections for every commercial coffee machine

Any commercial espresso or bean-to-cup machine with a pressurised steam boiler needs an annual PSSR test — regardless of make. Our engineers carry deep experience across traditional and automatic machines, covering the whole of the UK from our hubs in Cardiff and London.

For a small number of manufacturers — Eversys, Franke and WMF — parts can only be sourced through the manufacturer. We assess these requests individually to confirm experience and parts availability, then quote accordingly.

Certified PSSR inspectors who self-certify

All of our engineers are certified through a third party to conduct annual PSSR tests. These pressure tests are a legal requirement for the insurance and safe operation of a pressurised boiler machine — and the onus falls on the machine's owner to ensure they happen.

Rather than requiring a separate third-party visit, our qualified team self-certifies the result of the PSSR test — keeping you compliant with a single, efficient appointment.

The service is great. We've just put in eleven new bean-to-cup machines in Bristol and nine in London. The support you get from the engineers who service the equipment is brilliant.
