GOLD CGs Gas-Fired Water Boiler
Start-up — operate boiler7b
Inspect system water piping
After filling the boiler and system
with water, inspect all piping
throughout the system for leaks. If
found, repair immediately. Repeat
this inspection after the boiler has
been started and the system has
heated up.
Leaks must be repaired at once.
Failure to do so can damage the
boiler, resulting in substantial
property damage.
Do not use petroleum-based
cleaning or sealing compounds
in
boiler system. Severe damage to
boiler will occur, resulting in
substantial property damage.
Start-up — preparation continued7a
Final check before starting boiler
• Read manual section 9 including the Lighting
instructions
procedure (Figure 21, page 34).
• Verify the boiler and system are
full of water.
• Verify the Start-up preparation procedures of
section 7a have been completed.
Start the boiler
• Follow the Lighting instructions from section 9c
to start the boiler.
• See section 7c if boiler fails to start.
Check system and boiler
Do not use petroleum-based
cleaning or sealing compounds
in
boiler system. Severe damage to
boiler will occur, resulting in
substantial property damage.
Eliminate all system leaks.
Continual fresh makeup water will
reduce boiler life. Minerals can
build up in sections, reducing heat
transfer, overheating cast iron, and
causing section failure.
1. Check system piping for leaks. If found, shut
down boiler and repair immediately.
2.
Vent air from system using manual vents. Air in
the system will interfere with circulation and cause
heat distribution problems and noise.
3.
Inspect vent system thoroughly for signs of
deterioration from corrosion, physical damage or
sagging. In addition — Check for gas-tight seal at
every connection and seam.
Venting system must be sealed
gas-tight
to prevent flue gas spillage
and carbon monoxide emissions
which will result in severe personal
injury or death.
Inspect base insulation
Check to make sure insulation is
secure
against all four sides of the
base. If insulation is damaged or
displaced, do not operate boiler.
Replace or reposition insulation.
Failure to replace damaged
insulation or reposition insulation
can result in a fire hazard, causing
severe personal injury, death or
substantial property damage.
The boiler contains ceramic fiber
and fiberglass materials. Use care
when handling these materials per
instructions on
page 60 of this
manual. Failure to comply could
result in severe personal injury.
