GENERAL MAINTENANCE & INFORMATION
(IMPORTANT: READ THIS PAGE)
FIRE BRICKS:
The fire bricks are made of high grade refractory mortar which will give good life if
maintained by rendering periodically with fire cement.
SURFACE FINISH:
Due to the hard working nature and high temperature of the boiler the painted surface
will wear with use. This is normal and will need to be retouched from time to time.
To clean wipe with a damp cloth. When stains become unsightly repaint affected area. The boilers surface
will need to be cool and clean. Remove any loose material.
The new paint will cure and harden when the boiler reaches good working temperatures.
WARNING:
Consult a qualified installer in regards to the installation of any hydronic central heating
system. Failure to do so could result in injury to person or property.
OPERATING HINTS
* Always open damper control on boiler before refuelling.
* Rake grate and clean ashpan out regularly. (Ash rake and combined spin wheel and ashpan tool
provided).
* Avoid wet or green wood – these will cause maintenance problems in any stove or boiler.
* Briquettes or coal may be used and will give good overnight operating temperatures.
* Check and clean flues and smokeways at least every 12 months.
* A hot fire burning slowly produces little or no smoke. A cold fire smouldering produces maximum
smoke.
* Condensation may form in the fire box or ashpan area when the boiler is first lit or is cold. This will
evaporate as the boiler warms. The condensation may be quite pronounced.
** Check rust inhibitor every 6 months or after any major boiling or water loss. The boiler is
made of mild steel and will give years of trouble free operation providing anti-rust and if
required hardness conditioner levels are maintained. If water supply is acidic add sodium
bicarbonate (cooking soda) - ask your dealer.
