18 Maintaining the Boiler
Checking the Ignition Ground Wiring
1. Check that the ground wire is in good condition and securely
attached to the boiler casing.
2. Check ground continuity of wiring using continuity meter.
3. Replace ground wires if ground continuity is not satisfactory.
Checking all Boiler Wiring
Inspect all boiler wiring, making sure wires are in good condition
and securely attached.
Checking the Control Settings

and check all settings. Adjust settings if necessary.
2. Check settings of external limit controls (if any) and adjust if
necessary.
Performing Start-up and Checks
1. Start boiler and make sure that the boiler is operating properly.
2. Verify cold fill pressure is correct and that operating pressure
does not go too high.
Check the Burner Flame

2. If the flame is unsatisfactory at either high fire or low fire, check
for obstructions in the venting and ensure that the air intake
filter is clean.

2. Emphasize the need to perform the maintenance schedule.
3. Remind the owner of the need to call a licensed contractor
should the boiler or system exhibit any unusual behavior.

and to schedule an annual start-up at the beginning of the
next heating season.
