SPECIFICATIONS: Boiler and Heating System Cleaner
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Shake well before using. Drain off a container of water after opening boiler drain. Look at
contents of container to determine which of the following treatments is required:
Annual Treatment or Moderately Dirty Systems:
No flushing is needed. Close off all valving between boiler and zoning circuits. Drain off a
sufficient quantity of water to allow space for the product. Lower the boiler pressure. Pour proper
amount (See Quantity Table) through any convenient opening when pressure in boiler subsides.
Reclose addition point and reopen circuit valving. Let product remain in boiler for entire season.
Check boiler drain-off valve for removal of sludge or scale.
Oily, Surging or Rusty Systems:
1) Turn off heating unit. Close off zoning as described above. Pour first dose (See Quantity
Table) into top opening (valve or plug). Fill with water to operating level. Replace valve
or plug on top of boiler with an elbow with a piece of rubber hose attached. Place end
of hose in metal receptacle.
2) Fire boiler and raise water level until steam and/or water flush oil and floating
contaminants away through hose. When water runs clear, shut off water and heat
source and remove hose. BE CAREFUL OF ESCAPING HOT WATER AND STEAM.
3) Drain boiler water, if necessary, to operating level. Add second dose of Boiler & Heating
System Cleaner. Replace elbow and hose with original valve or plug. Reopen circuit
valving. Fire boiler to normal pressure and allow to operate one week.
4) After a week, cut off heat and let boiler cool; open bottom drain-off valve and drain to
remove heavy sediment.
5) Clean all drain-cocks, gauges, gauge glasses, valves and replace.
6) Refill boiler. Add another dose of Boiler & Heating System Cleaner and allow to remain in
boiler.
Dirty Hot Water Heating Boilers and Systems:
1) Turn off heat, drain boiler and entire system. Open all air vents. Pour Boiler & Heating
System Cleaner (See Quantity Table) into boiler through suitable opening. Remove relief
valve if necessary.
2) Replace relief valve, close vents, fill system with water. Vent each radiator until all air is
removed from system.
3) Fire system and operate for at least one hour.
4) Cut off heat, let boiler cool. Drain sediment. Vent radiator. Refill with water if needed.
5) Operate system. (If system is very dirty, repeat operation.)
