XIII. Service and Maintenance
WARNING
Read and understand the entire manual before
attempting installation, start-up operation,
or service. Installation and service must be
performed only by an experienced, skilled, and
knowledgeable installer or service agency.
The boiler requires regular maintenance and
service to operate safely. Follow the instructions
contained in this manual. Improper installation,
adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance
can cause property damage, personal injury or
loss of life.
A clean and unobstructed venting system is
necessary to allow noxious fumes that could
cause injury or loss of life to vent safely, and
will contribute toward maintaining the boiler's
efficiency.
Installation is not complete unless a safety
relief valve is installed in the tapping located on
the water manifold or supply piping. Refer to
the Hydronic Piping section of the manual.
If damage due to frozen pipes is a possibility, the
heating system should be not left unattended
in cold weather; or appropriate safeguards
and alarms should be installed on the heating
system to prevent damage if the boiler is
inoperative.
Do not unscrew any pipe fittings nor attempt
to disconnect any components of this boiler
without positively assuring the water is cool
and has no pressure. Always wear protective
clothing and equipment when installing,
starting up or servicing this boiler to prevent
scald injuries. Do not rely on the pressure
and temperature gauge to determine the
temperature and pressure of the boiler.
A. Inspect Boiler Area
1. Keep the area around the boiler free from
combustible materials-- gasoline and other
flammable vapors and liquids (see Table 4).
2. Keep the area around the combustion air
inlet terminal free from contaminants.
3. Keep the boiler room ventilation orifices
open and unobstructed.
B. Boiler Interior
1. Remove front jacket panel and check
minimum and blocked vent switches for
cracks and check pressure sensing line
connections.
2. Vacuum any sediment and dust from boiler
interior and components.
C. Monthly Inspection
1. Inspect the vent piping and outside air intake
piping to verify they are open, unobstructed
and free of leakage or deterioration. Check
screens in vent and air intake termiantions
to verifty they are clean and free of debris.
2. Inspect the condensate drain system
to verify it is leak proof, open and
unobstructed. Call the service technician
if the condensate drain system requires
maintenance.
3. Inspect water and gas lines to verify they
are free of leaks.
D. Annual Inspections and Service
In addition to the inspection listed above the
following should be performed by a service
technician once every year.
1. Water flow switch
i. Test the flow switch by disabling the boiler
primary loop circulator. The boiler must not
start when there is no water flow.
ii. Remove flow switch and visually inspect
paddle length. The markings, BFIT 20 and
BFIT 10-15, shown in Figure 26 should be
visible for a specific size boiler.
