STOP!! — Read before proceeding
Failure to adhere to the guidelines on this page can result in se- vere personal injury, death or substantial property damage.
Boiler service and maintenance —
•To avoid electric shock, disconnect electrical supply before per- forming maintenance.
•To avoid severe burns, allow boiler to cool before performing main- tenance.
•You must maintain the boiler as outlined in the manual and have the boiler started up and serviced at least annually by a qualified service technician to ensure boiler/system reliability.
Boiler operation —
•Do not block flow of combustion or ventilation air to boiler. This boiler is equipped with a control which will automatically shut down the boiler should air or vent be blocked. If vent or air blockage is easily accessible and removable, remove it. The boiler should attempt to restart within an hour. If blockage is not obvious or cannot be re- moved, have the boiler and system checked by a qualified service tech- nician.
•Should overheating occur or gas supply fail to shut off, do not turn off or disconnect electrical supply to pump. Instead, shut off the gas supply at a location external to the appliance.
•Do not use this boiler if any part has been under water. Immedi- ately call a qualified service technician to inspect the boiler and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control, which has been under water.
•Have the building monitored when it is vacant for an extended period. Safety controls can shut down the boiler at any time. The loss of heat can result in significant damage due to freezing.
Boiler water —
•DO NOT use
•DO NOT use "homemade cures" or "boiler patent medicines". Serious damage to boiler, personnel and/or property may result.
•Continual fresh makeup water will reduce boiler life. Mineral build- up in sections reduces heat transfer, overheats cast iron, and causes section failure. Addition of oxygen and other gases can cause internal corrosion. Leaks in boiler or piping must be repaired at once to pre- vent makeup water.
•Do not add cold water to hot boiler. Thermal shock can cause sec- tions to crack.
