GyanTosh provides end-to-end installation and commissioning for steam boilers, thermic fluid heaters, and balance of plant systems. Our teams manage site preparation, mechanical installation, utility integration, and start-up assistance to ensure your heating system performs from day one. Boiler commissioning services cover hydraulic testing, refractory dry-out and boil-out, burner and combustion setting, safety valve floating, interlock proving and trial operation under load — finishing when your operators are running the plant to specification, not when the equipment is energized. Scope covers industrial boiler installation from foundation upward: mechanical boiler erection, pressure-part assembly, piping and utility tie-ins, refractory and insulation. Steam boiler installation is the common case, but the same team handles thermic fluid heaters, hot water generators and the balance of plant around them.

What installation actually involves
Installing a boiler is mostly about everything around it. The shell arrives finished; what decides whether the plant runs well is the foundation it sits on, the alignment of the feed and steam connections, the flue and chimney, the fuel path into the furnace and the water treatment feeding it. Most commissioning delays trace back to one of those interfaces rather than to the boiler itself.
Our teams erect the pressure parts and mountings, connect the feed water, steam, blowdown and drain lines, install the burner or grate and its fuel feeding system, and connect the induced and forced draft fans, ducting and chimney. Where the plant has existing utilities, tying into them without a long shutdown is planned before anyone arrives on site.
Commissioning, step by step
Commissioning takes an installed boiler to a proven one, in a fixed order. A hydraulic test confirms the pressure parts hold. On solid-fuel and refractory-lined units, the refractory is dried out slowly, because firing wet refractory hard cracks it. A boil-out cleans the water side of mill scale and oil left from fabrication before the boiler ever raises working steam.
Then the boiler is fired, the safety valves are set and proved, and the level controls, trips and interlocks are tested one at a time — each safety device is made to act, rather than assumed to work. Combustion is tuned across the firing range, and the boiler is run on the plant's real load before it is handed over.
Handover
A boiler is handed over with its drawings, test records and the settings it was commissioned at, and with operators who have run it under supervision rather than only watched. Where the boiler falls under the Boilers Act, 2025, the registration and inspection paperwork is prepared alongside commissioning so the plant is not left holding a working boiler it may not yet lawfully use.
