What PSSR 2000 requires
The PSSR 2000 framework sets out the UK safety regulations for pressure systems, ensuring equipment operating under pressure is managed safely and correctly, covering boilers, steam equipment, air receivers, refrigeration plants over 25 kW, and other high-risk assets.
Every inspection we carry out follows the scope defined in your Written Scheme of Examination. If you don’t have a WSE in place, we prepare one before the examination begins. You then receive a written report detailing any defects found and the timescales in which they must be addressed.
We're based at The Warrens Business Park in Enderby, minutes from the M1 and M69, so response times across Leicester and Leicestershire are fast.

PSSR in Leicester: FAQs
Does my Leicester business need a PSSR examination?
If your equipment operates under pressure and could create a safety risk if it failed, it may require inspection under PSSR 2000. Common examples include steam boilers, air receivers, compressed air systems, refrigeration units, and pressure vessels.
What is a Written Scheme of Examination (WSE)?
A WSE is a legally required document describing which items must be examined, the method to be used, and how often each check must occur. If you don’t have one in place, we prepare it before the examination begins.
How often should pressure systems be inspected?
Intervals depend on the type of pressure system, its operating conditions, and the Written Scheme of Examination. In many cases pressure systems are examined annually, although some equipment requires more or less frequent inspection depending on usage and risk.
Who carries out the examination?
A Competent Person: an authorised specialist with the expertise to examine equipment, certify compliance, and identify early signs of deterioration. Every examination we carry out follows the scope defined in your WSE.
