Straightforward answers about commercial coffee machine servicing, maintenance and PSSR compliance.

Find answers to some of the questions we're most frequently asked, or use our free PSSR Checker if you're unsure whether PSSR may apply to your machine.

What is PSSR and does it apply to my coffee machine?

PSSR stands for the Pressure Systems Safety Regulations 2000. Commercial coffee machines that contain pressurised steam boilers may fall within these regulations, depending on the equipment and installation.

If you're unsure whether PSSR may apply to your machine, use our free PSSR Checker for some initial guidance.

How often does a commercial coffee machine need a PSSR examination?

The examination frequency is set out in the Written Scheme of Examination (WSE) for the pressure system. For many commercial coffee machines this is commonly every 12 months, but the required interval should be confirmed by the competent person and the machine's Written Scheme of Examination.

If you're unsure when your machine is due, EspressoForce can help check your existing documentation and advise on the next steps.

What happens if my coffee machine doesn't have a current PSSR examination?

If PSSR applies to your coffee machine, the pressure system should be examined in accordance with its Written Scheme of Examination. If the required examination is overdue or the correct documentation isn't in place, the machine may not be meeting the applicable requirements.

EspressoForce can review what you currently have, identify what's needed and help you get the correct examination and documentation in place.

How often should a commercial coffee machine be serviced?

How often a commercial coffee machine should be serviced depends on its usage, water quality and operating environment. For many businesses, planned preventative maintenance helps identify wear, scale and developing faults before they result in a breakdown.

EspressoForce can recommend a maintenance schedule based on your machine, usage and business requirements.

What should I do if my commercial coffee machine breaks down?

If your coffee machine develops a fault, switch it off if there are any safety concerns, leaks, unusual noises or electrical issues, and avoid attempting repairs unless you are suitably qualified.

EspressoForce provides responsive breakdown support for commercial coffee machines. Our engineers can diagnose faults, carry out repairs and advise if replacement parts are required.

If you're unsure whether we can support your particular machine, contact us with the make and model and we'll be happy to advise.
