XII. Service and Maintenance

1)Continuously:

a.Keep the area around the boiler free from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids.

b.Keep the area around the combustion air inlet terminal free from contaminates .

c.Keep the boiler room ventilation openings open and unobstructed.

2)Monthly Inspections:

a.Inspect the vent piping and outside air intake piping to verify they are open, unobstructed and free from leakage or deterioration. Call the service technician to make repairs if needed.

b.Inspect the condensate drain system to verify it is leak tight, open and unobstructed. Call the service technician if the condensate drain system requires maintenance.

c.Inspect the water and gas lines to verify they are free from leaks. Call the service technician to make repairs if required.

CAUTION

WATER LEAKS CAN CAUSE SEVERE CORROSION DAMAGE TO THE BOILER OR OTHER SYSTEM COMPONENTS. IMMEDIATELY REPAIR ANY LEAKS FOUND.

4)Annual Inspections and Service: In addition to the inspections listed above the following should be per- formed by a service technician once every year.

a.Test the low water cutoff by pressing the “Test” button located at its end. The yellow light should come on and “E12” should flash on the display. Push the reset button on the display to restore normal operation. If the yellow light does not come on, determine why the low water cutoff is not working properly.

b.Follow the procedure for turning the boiler off found in the BWC Series Lighting and Operating Instructions.

c.Inspect the wiring to verify the conductors are in good condition and attached securely.

CAUTION

LABEL ALL WIRES PRIOR TO DISCONNECTION WHEN SERVICING CONTROLS. WIRING ERRORS CAN CAUSE IMPROPER AND DANGEROUS OPERATION. VERIFY PROPER OPERATION AFTER SERVICING.

d.Remove the ignition electrode and inspect it for oxides. Clean the oxides off the electrode with sandpaper. Inspect the ceramic insulator for cracks and replace the ignitor assembly as necessary.

e.Remove any accumulated debris from the air inlet screen.

f.Remove the attenuator hose and clean as necessary. (Note: The nylon cable tie used to hold the attenuator hose in place is releasable.)

g.Remove the combustion fan/gas valve assembly and inspect the fan and fan blade for lint and dust. Vacuum as required.

h.Remove the burner hood to access the burner and the chamber.

BWC Series specifications

The Crown Boiler BWC Series is a modern choice for heating needs, renowned for its efficiency and robust design. This series offers a range of residential and light commercial heating applicabilities, ensuring both comfort and reliability for users.

One of the standout features of the BWC Series is its efficiency. Crown Boilers utilize advanced technologies to maximize energy output while minimizing fuel consumption. With an AFUE (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency) rating often exceeding 90%, users can expect significant cost savings on their energy bills over time.

The BWC Series employs a high-quality, stainless steel heat exchanger, which not only enhances performance but also extends the lifespan of the boiler. This heat exchanger is designed to transfer heat efficiently, ensuring that the maximum amount of energy from the fuel is converted into usable heat. Additionally, the design helps to prevent corrosion and maintain system integrity over years of usage.

For technological advancements, the BWC Series incorporates a modulating gas valve which allows for precise control over the boiler's operation. This feature enables the system to adjust its output based on the heating demands of the home, resulting in improved energy efficiency and consistent comfort levels. Moreover, this modulating technology reduces the frequency of cycling, thereby prolonging the lifespan of the unit and minimizing wear and tear.

Another characteristic of the Crown Boiler BWC Series is its user-friendly interface. The boiler is equipped with a simple control panel that allows for easy monitoring and adjustment of settings. This accessibility is essential for users who want to manage their heating system without the need for extensive technical knowledge.

In terms of installation and maintenance, the BWC Series is designed with convenience in mind. Its compact footprint allows it to fit comfortably in a variety of spaces, making it an ideal choice for homes with limited installation areas. Additionally, Crown Boiler's commitment to high manufacturing standards ensures that the units require minimal maintenance, providing peace of mind to homeowners.

Overall, the Crown Boiler BWC Series is an excellent solution for those seeking efficient, reliable heating. Its combination of advanced technology, quality construction, and user-friendly design makes it an attractive option for any residential or light commercial application. Whether replacing an old system or installing a new one, the BWC Series delivers comfort and performance that can be depended upon.
