Check air openings
Verify that combustion and ventilation air 1.
openings to the boiler room and/or building
are open and unobstructed.
Verify that boiler vent discharge and air intake 2.
are clean and free of obstructions.
Remove any debris on the air intake or flue 3.
exhaust openings.
If removing the debris does not allow the 4.
boiler to operate correctly afterwards, contact
your qualified service technician to inspect the
boiler and vent/air systems.
Check the pressure/
temperature gauge
Make sure the pressure reading on the boiler 1.
pressure/temperature gauge does not exceed
25 psig.
Contact a qualified service technician if prob-2.
lem persists.
Verify boiler front door is
secure
Visually inspect boiler front door to be sure it 1.
is sealed all around its perimeter. Verify that
the two lower thumb screws are tight.
Reinstall the jacket front door after
servicing. The boiler front door
must be securely fastened to the
boiler to prevent boiler from draw-
ing air from inside the boiler room.
This is particularly important if the
boiler is located in the same room as
other appliances. Failure to keep the
door securely fastened could result
in severe personal injury or death.
Contact your installer or technician
immediately if the front door does
not correctly in place or if the door
gaskets are damaged.
The boiler must be serviced & maintained
The boiler must be inspected and started annually, at the
beginning of the heating season, by a qualified service tech-
nician. In addition, the maintenance and care of the boiler
designated on page 5 and explained on pages 6 through 9
must be performed to assure maximum boiler efficiency and
reliability. Failure to service and maintain the boiler and sys-
tem could result in equipment failure, causing possible severe
personal injury, death or substantial property damage.
The following information provides detailed instructions for
completing the maintenance items listed in the maintenance
schedule, page 5.
In addition to this maintenance, the boiler must be serviced
and started up at the beginning of each heating season by a
qualified service technician.
Check boiler area
To prevent potential of severe personal injury, death or sub-
stantial property damage, eliminate all materials discussed
below from the boiler vicinity and the vicinity of boiler
combustion air inlet. If contaminants are found:
•Removeproductsimmediatelyfromthearea.Iftheyhave
been there for an extended period, call a qualified service
technician to inspect the boiler for possible damage from
acid corrosion.
•Ifproductscannotberemoved,immediatelycallaqualied
service technician to re-pipe vent and air piping and locate
vent termination/air intake away from contaminated areas.
Combustible/flammable materials — Do not store com-
bustible materials, gasoline or any other flammable vapors
or liquids near the boiler. Remove immediately if found.
Air contaminants — Products containing chlorine or fluo-
rine, if allowed to contaminate the boiler intake air, will cause
acidic condensate in the boiler. This will cause significant
damage to the boiler if allowed to continue. Read the list of
potential materials listed on page 4 of this manual. If any of
these products are in the room from which the boiler takes
its combustion air, they must be removed immediately or
the boiler combustion air (and vent termination) must be
relocated to another area.
