PB Heat DE manual Start-Upprocedures

3.Low Water Cut-Off (if used) – Consult the manufacturer’s instructions for the low water cut-off operational check procedure.

4.Check the system to make sure there are no leaks or overfilling problems which might cause excessive make-up water to be added. Make-up water causes liming in the boiler and brings in oxygen. Oxygen can cause severe damage to the boiler through oxygen corrosion pitting.

5.Check the expansion tank and automatic fill valve (if used) to confirm that they are operating correctly. If either of these components causes high pressure in the system, the boiler relief valve will weep or open, allowing fresh water to enter the system.

6.Do not allow the system controls to subject the boiler to excessively low water temperatures, which would cause condensation of flue gases and corrosion of the boiler. Operate the boiler at a temperature above 130°F (55°C). Adjust the boiler limit as required to maintain boiler temperature above this level.

START-UP PROCEDURES

7.Check the general condition of the system including piping support, joints, etc. Check cleanliness of the radiators, baseboard units and/or convectors. Clean them to the extent possible. If radiators do not heat evenly, vent any remaining air from them.

8.Review operation and User’s Information Manual with end-user.

9.Complete the Warranty Card and submit it to PB Heat, LLC.

10.Hang the Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual and User’s Information Manual in an accessible position near the boiler.
