STEAM GENERATOR
Market Forge Industries has two types of steam generators; one has an automatic drain; the
other a manual one. Automatic boilers are also capable of being drained manually. To determine
which one you have, refer to the daily operating instruction plate located behind the cabinet door,
which will identify the steam generator as being automatic or manual.
CLEANING GENERATOR
Market Forge Industries recommends that all generators be cleaned periodically due to the im
-
purities which are introduced through the water supply. All water supplies contain some mineral
deposits and impurities, and the degree varies due to geographical location. Market Forge has
recommended a schedule of cleaning that should suffice to keep boilers in proper working order
where water supply is relatively pure. However, as no water supply in one area can be accurately
compared with that of another, this schedule should not be regarded as a fool proof formula to
prevent rust, scale, lime and foreign deposits from forming. A stepup of the recommended man
-
ual cleaning schedule becomes necessary where introduced impurities exist.
MAJOR CLEANING
The cleaning schedule should be performed two or more times per year as determined by local
water conditions. Market Forge recommends that use of its Cathodic Descaler to protect the inner
generator walls and components against rust, scale and lime deposits. The schedule to change
the Cathodic Descaler may be timed to the major cleanings or accelerated where impurities
prove to be excessive. The normal effectiveness of the descaler is one year.
Qualified Market Forge Service Agencies are available to establish a suitable schedule for major
cleanings and / or Cathodic Descaler replacements. Should you prefer, however, to make these
cleanings yourself, the instructions that follow are meant to assist you. These instructions are
generalized to apply to all models.
