We highly recommend taking steps to ensure your boiler equipment is protected. Below are some valuable tips when inspecting your boiler.

Burners
Remove, check and clean dampers, nozzles, electrodes, scanners, hoses, compressors, filters, diffusers, etc. for blockage and/or damage.

Refractory
Check for cracking. Unrepaired cracks, even minor ones, can reduce boiler efficiency and allow warping and damage to occur on vital metal surfaces.

Controls
Proper water levels, operating pressures and control devices are critical to your boiler system’s performance. Carefully check gauge glass for cracks or erosion and inspect the float and switches. Check the operation of all limit switches and sequences of operation timing.

Fireside
Clean out any detectable soot. Soot can reduce the efficiency of your boiler tubes, tube sheets and furnace area. Replace fireside gaskets when closing the boiler.
