Steam Boiler Log Books are one of the boiler room requirement by safety authorities in Canada like TSSA, ABSA, RBQ, etc…. They are required to have to track all steam boiler daily maintenance work carried by boiler operators and maintenance staff like the time of boiler start-up, the time of conducting bottom blowdown, registering conductivity readings, registering steam pressure readings and time of boiler shut down. They are also used to log all steam boiler alarms and faults to help other maintenance staff working on other shifts to trouble shoot and fix alarms.

In addition to that, manufacturers’ authorized technicians are required to log the work they perform on boilers on customers’ log books after completing their work on customers’ sites, for example this work could be the annual boiler inspection or an emergency breakdown repair.

These steam boiler log books are inspected by authorized safety inspectors each time they conduct onsite inspection, and that is why these steam boiler log books are supposed to be kept in a clean and accessible place for the safety inspector to check. In case authorized inspectors find out there is no log book in the boiler room, they will issue warning to steam boilers’ owners.

In order for a steam boiler log book to be accepted by an authorized inspector, the logbook shall be bound and constructed so that the pages are numbered and cannot be removed and shall be large enough to accommodate all the required entries. O. Reg. 219/01, s. 37 (2). The names of the chief operating engineer, chief operator, relief chiefs, shift engineers and shift operators and their sample signatures shall be entered on the logbook’s signature page. O. Reg. 219/01, s. 37 (5).
