The bill amends the Skilled Trades Regulation Act by introducing new classifications for boiler installer licenses and establishing specific requirements for each classification. The new classifications include Class 2B, Class 3B, Class 4B, Class 5B, and Class P boiler installers. Each class has defined capabilities, such as the types of boilers they can install and the associated tasks they are permitted to perform. For instance, a Class 5B license allows the installation of boilers utilizing a nuclear heat source, while a Class P license focuses on nonboiler external piping.

Additionally, the bill stipulates that the director shall not issue a boiler installer license unless the applicant meets the necessary requirements for their desired classification. It also modifies the permit requirements for installing or altering a boiler, specifying that individuals must be licensed under the new section 926a to be eligible for a permit. The language changes include replacing "this article" with "section 926a" in the permit eligibility criteria and clarifying that individuals must be licensed or work under the supervision of a licensed individual to perform work requiring a permit.
