ÜKYP/YP Automatic Fuel Loading, Central System Heating Boiler Usage and Maintenance Manual
MAINTENANCE AND BOILER CLEANING
In order for your system to operate efficiently, regular maintenance by expert teams is required
according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Regular checks:
The water level should always be checked. The hydrometer (water level indicator) should be
marked after the first filling of the system. If the water level has fallen below the static pressure
or the system setting, water must be added to the system (when the boiler is cold). In order
to protect the system and the boiler from corrosion, the water to be fed to the system should
be softened according to the local settings.
It should be checked whether the front doors are closed well, and if necessary, the cover wicks
should be changed.
It should be checked whether there is gas leakage from the flue connection. If there is a leak,
it should be repaired.
Boiler heating surfaces should be checked. The formation of soot varies according to the type
of fuel used and the amount of combustion air. If it is understood that the leaving water
temperature cannot rise to the values that it usually is under normal conditions, it means that
the boiler surfaces are soaked, the heat transfer surfaces of the boiler should be cleaned.
It should be checked whether the fan is working properly. An improperly balanced, well-
balanced fan makes periodic noises. If there is fuel dust or ashes collected between the fins of
the fan, it is necessary to clean it by blowing it without disturbing the fin structure of the fan
or by holding a dryer.
Cleaning the boiler:
It should be done when the boiler is cold. Before cleaning the boiler, the pump and the electrical
devices connected to the system must be turned off.
To clean the boiler:
The intervals between the water jackets should be cleaned one by one. This cleaning should
be done frequently as the ashes and soot remaining on the water jackets will prevent heat
conduction.
The pitching that occurs on the walls of the boiler will form a layer and will prevent the energy
released in the boiler from passing into the water, thus causing a decrease in efficiency. In
order to prevent this situation, all heating surfaces of the boiler should be cleaned with the
help of a squeegee at regular intervals or as needed.
The ashes that may remain on the water grill should be pushed down and the ashes
accumulated inside the cleaning door located in front of the burner should be cleaned
periodically or when necessary.
By opening the cleaning cover of the burner, the ashes accumulated in it can be cleaned
periodically.
The control panel should be protected from dust, moisture and water. The terminals behind
the panel must remain dust-free.
Boiler outer hood plates can be cleaned as needed.
Care:
Contracted service of the system before each working season; We strongly recommend that you call
our authorized service to check the boiler, installation, electrical connections, chimney. Never carry
out maintenance work without the help of an expert.
