COMMISSIONING THE BOILER
It is essential that the commissioning procedures listed below are carried out by a Fulton service
engineer who will have the necessary experience and testing equipment to ensure that the
installation is not only correct, but is operating safely and at optimum efficiency.
Flue Commissioning
Prior to initial firing of the boiler, the flue must be checked for leaks.
This is done by BOTH of the following methods:
a) Visual Inspection
Check joints between all flue sections for quality of seals. Where the flue passes through the
structure of the building use your judgement as to the integrity of this section of the flue.
b) Smoke Test
With the flue capped, the drain stabiliser pipe (if fitted) blanked and a smoke generator
inserted into the flue, there should be no smoke visible from the flue.
If either of these tests fail or at any time during boiler operation, there is doubt about the integrity
of the flue, shut down the boiler and contact Fulton Ltd immediately.
Note: Flues that are designed to operate with positive pressure should be tested to the latest regulations.
2.13.1
BOILER INSPECTION AND INITIAL FIRING
1. Ensure that the boiler has been washed out after installation. It is advisable to conduct a water
analysis before operating the boiler.
Examine the probes in the water column and the boiler shell and record their lengths.
Replace any damaged probes.
2.
If the burner is fitted with an ultraviolet or solid state detector, remove the detector and check
for damage. Remove the burner and check that the electrodes have not been damaged and
that their setting corresponds to the appropriate drawing.
3. Check that the burner is the correct type for use with the gas being supplied.
