Gas-Fired Water Boilers – 

Boiler Manual

  The boiler should be inspected and started annually, at the beginning of the heating season, only by a qualified service 

technician. In addition, the maintenance and care of the boiler designated in 

Table 8, page 27

, and explained on the fol

-

lowing pages must be performed to assure maximum boiler efficiency and reliability. Failure to service and maintain the 

boiler and system could cause equipment failure resulting in severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage.

Table 8  Service and maintenance schedules (service technician and user)

  Follow the “Service and maintenance” procedures given throughout this manual and in component literature shipped 

with the boiler. See “Read this first” on 

page 2

. Failure to perform the service and maintenance could result in damage
