4.4 STORAGE REQUIREMENTS
If long-term storage is necessary, precautions must be
taken to ensure that the heating system is operational
for start-up. Steps must be taken to ensure that water
ingress is mitigated at all locations. All plugs and caps
must remain tight and a suitable cover must be provided
for the system. The cover must shield the system from
direct rain and protect from any directed spray that may
occur.
For any storage longer than three months, desiccant
bags must be placed next to the system if it is still in
the original packaging and inside the control box. If
the storage duration will be one year or longer, the
volatile corrosion inhibitor inside the control box must be
replaced at six month intervals.
New pump motors placed in long-term storage for a
year or longer may require relubrication before initial
use. If your pump motor has provisions for relubrication,
refer to the pump motor manufacturer’s relubrication
recommendations. Refer to the pump motor nameplate
for lubrication type.
During storage, the faces of the pump seal may adhere
to each other if there is no fluid in the pump. Applying
power from the pump motor with stuck seal faces can
damage or destroy the pump seal. For heating systems
that are new or have been in storage, remove the pump
shaft guards and rotate the shaft by and to ensure the
seal faces move freely before energizing the motor.
