The Technical Standards and Safety Authority (TSSA) reviews the design of boilers and pressurized equipment/vessels (BPVs) to ensure it meets all applicable regulations, safety codes and standards.

Our engineering services include:

  • Design registration
  • Welding and brazing procedure registrations
  • Variance reviews
  • Consultation services

To learn more about these engineering services, please expand the respective lists below.

Canadian Registration Number (CRN) for Pressure Equipment

Beginning January 1, 2020 design reviews conducted by provinces and territories in Canada will be mutually recognized by those jurisdictions participating in the Reconciliation Agreement for the Canadian Registration Number (CRN) for Pressure Equipment. With a single design review being conducted, the system is becoming more streamlined and efficient.

Pressure equipment must be registered in each province or territory where it will be used. 

Participating jurisdictions include British Columbia, Manitoba, Northwest Territories, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Prince Edward Island, Québec, Saskatchewan, and Yukon. For more information, please contact BPV Nationals at bpv_registration_billing@tssa.org.
