générateur; chaudière: Certains auteurs semblent employer indifféremment ces termes, peu importe l’importance de l’appareil. Cependant, de façon générale, «générateur» serait réservé aux «appareils de chauffage de très grande importance»; dans d’autres cas, le terme «générateur», prendrait le sens général, «d’appareil qui produit de la chaleur.» 4, record 2, French, - chaudi%C3%A8re%20%C3%A0%20haute%20pression

Les installations à basse pression, c'est-à-dire où la pression effective de vapeur ne dépasse pas 0, 5 bar et la température de l'eau 110 °C, sont soumises à des règles moins sévères. Dans tous les autres cas, la réglementation impose des règles de construction et d’installation. Elle exige en outre, avant la mise en service une épreuve à la suite de laquelle la chaudière est timbrée, le timbre étant l'indication de la pression d’épreuve de la chaudière. 5, record 2, French, - chaudi%C3%A8re%20%C3%A0%20haute%20pression
