N.M. Admin. Code § 14.9.4.27 - PREPARATION OF BOILERS
A.
After timely notification, it shall be the responsibility of the owner or user
to prepare the boiler for inspection. To prepare a boiler for internal
inspection, all manhole plates, handhold plates, washout plugs and water column
connection plugs shall be removed and the waterside thoroughly washed. Furnace,
combustion chambers and tubes must be thoroughly cleaned and grates of
internally-fired boilers, brickwork or other insulation material shall be
removed to determine the condition of the shell furnace, mud drum, heads or any
covered pressure part. The chamber of the low water fuel cutoffs shall be
opened and the float or probes removed.
B. Any leakage of steam or hot water into the
boiler shall be prevented by disconnecting the pipe or valve at the most
convenient point or any appropriate means approved by the special
inspector.
