in case of installation malfunction and lacking water in a boiler do not fill it
in, if boiler is hot, as it may cause its damage
all defects of boiler should be immediately removed.
NOTE: The boiler should be regularly cleansed from soot and tarry residues
– any residue on the convection channels walls disrupts proper heat
transfer from the exchanger, lowering this way efficiency of device and
increases fuel consumption.
PROBLEM
CAUSE/ SYMPTOM
REMENDY
Low heat capacity
of device
gases channels
obstructed
clean the channels through
washout holes
lack of fresh air
delivered to boiler
room
check blow-in ventilation,
improve its permeability
burning inadequate
fuel
apply proper quality fuel (see
chapter "Fuel" p. 7)
boiler power not up to
heating area
improper design and
erection of heating
installation
Improper functioning of
controller, fan
adjust controller’s settings up
to
weather conditions or quality
of fuel, if controller does not
work properly consult manual
Smoking
chimney draught not
sufficient
check chimney’s permeability
and its parameters (see tab.
height and section to boiler’s
power p. 8 ), check if chimney
end is not lower than roof
ridge
gases channels dirty
clean up boiler through
washout holes
sealing rope indoor
and washout openings
worn
replace a rope (to be replaced
regularly)
improper assembly of
boiler and
chimney connection
check accurateness
very low atmospheric
pressure
