3.0 Maintenance Procedures
SECTION III - MAINTENANCE
PROCEDURES
The PRESTIGE must be inspected and serviced
annually, preferably at the start of the heating sea-
son, by a qualified service technician. In addition,
the maintenance and care of the boiler as outlined
on page 5 and further explained on pages 5 through
8 must be performed to assure maximum efficiency
and reliability of the unit. Failure to service and
maintain the PRESTIGE and the system components
could result in equipment failure, causing possible
severe personal injury, death or substantial property
damage.
The following information provides detailed instruc-
tion for completing the maintenance items outlined
in the maintenance schedule on page 5. In addition
to this maintenance, the PRESTIGE should be serv-
iced at the beginning of the heating season by a
qualified service technician.
3.1 Daily Maintenance
3.1.1 Check the Surrounding Area
To prevent potential of severe personal injury, death
or substantial property damage, eliminate all the
materials listed on page 4 from the area surrounding
the unit and from the vicinity of the combustion air
inlet. If contaminates are found:
Remove products immediately from the area. If they
have been there for an extended period, call a quali-
fied service technician to inspect the unit for possi-
ble damage from acid corrosion.
If products cannot be removed, immediately call a
qualified service technician to re-pipe the combus-
tion air inlet piping and locate the combustion air
intake away from the contaminated areas.
WARNING
NOTICE
WARNING
1. Combustible / flammable materials - Do not
store combustible materials, gasoline or other
flammable vapors or liquids near the unit.
R
emove immediately if found.
2. Air contaminates - Products containing chlorine
or fluorine, if allowed to contaminate the com-
bustion air, will cause acidic condensate within
the unit. This will cause significant damage to
the unit. Read the list of potential materials list-
ed on page 4 of this manual. If any of these
products are in the room from which the unit
takes its combustion air, they must be removed
immediately or the combustion air intake must
be relocated to another area.
3.1.2 Check Combustion Air Inlets
1. Verify that ventilation air openings to the
mechanical room are open and unobstructed.
2. Verify that the unit’s vent termination and com-
bustion air intake are clean and free of obstruc-
tions. Remove any debris on the air intake or
flue exhaust openings. If removing the debris
does not allow the unit to operate correctly, con-
tact your qualified service technician to inspect
the unit and the vent / combustion air system.
3.1.3 Check Temperature Display and
Pressure Gauge
1. Ensure the pressure reading on the pressure
gauge does not exceed 25 psig. Higher pres-
sure readings may indicate a problem with the
expansion tank.
2. Ensure the temperature on the display panel
does not exceed 194ºF. Higher temperature
readings may indicate a problem with the oper-
ating thermostat controls.
3. Contact a qualified service technician if prob-
lem persists.
