Boiler Repair & Re-tubing FAQs

Common questions about boiler repair and full re-tubing services in Malaysia

When does a boiler need full re-tubing?+
Re-tubing is typically required when tube wall thickness drops below safe limits (failed UT inspections), when multiple tubes leak repeatedly, after major corrosion damage, or when scaling has caused permanent tube degradation. JKKP annual inspections often flag the need for re-tubing.
Is re-tubing cheaper than buying a new boiler?+
Yes — significantly. A full re-tube typically costs 20–40% of a new boiler purchase and extends the boiler's service life by 10–15+ years. It's the most cost-effective way to recover a failing boiler without disrupting your existing piping, foundations, and plant layout.
How long does a full boiler re-tubing take?+
Typically 7 to 21 working days depending on boiler type, tube count, accessibility, and additional pressure part repairs needed. We coordinate with your scheduled shutdown to minimize downtime and aim to deliver within your planned outage window.
Do you use ASME-certified welders?+
Yes. All pressure-part welding is performed by ASME-certified welders following coded welding procedure specifications (WPS). Every weld is logged, identified, and verified through NDT before the boiler is returned to service.
What testing do you perform after re-tubing?+
Every repair undergoes ultrasonic testing (UT), radiographic testing (RT) on critical welds, magnetic particle inspection (MPI), dye penetrant testing (PT), and a final hydrostatic pressure test. Full documentation is provided for JKKP inspection submission.
Can you repair after a low-water incident?+
Yes. Low-water incidents typically cause tube bulging, sagging, and overheating damage. We assess structural integrity, replace damaged tubes, perform pressure part repairs, and verify everything through NDT before returning the boiler to safe operation.
