I see from the Walker Midgely site that boilers of less than 3 bar-litres capacity don't need a test certificate **LINK**. I estimate the capacity of the large Tich boiler as about 450cc, and the pressure is no more than 90psi (max, so that's roughy 0.450 x 4 = 1.8 bar litres.

Froma purely legal insurance perspective, not individual club requirements, is it therefore correct that a Tich boiler would not need a test certificate?

Interesting. Still comes to less than 3 bar litres, if the volume is worked out right.. Is 90 bar a bit highor Tich?

Are there 2 or 3 boiler designs for Tich? I thought there was a 3" large boiler and a smaller 2 5/8" boiler with a belpaire boiler. But it appears the belpaire may be the nbest of them all. is there a 'standard' small boiler?

I'm going to post some Tich observations in another thread.
