ASME Section IV

ASME Section IV, part of the Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, sets safety standards for the design, materials, construction, and inspection of heating boilers and their components that operate at relatively low pressures and temperatures. It ensures these boilers are built to safely contain and transfer heat, preventing accidents. The section provides guidelines for materials used, design calculations, fabrication methods, and testing procedures, ultimately promoting safe, reliable, and efficient operation of residential and commercial heating equipment.
