Operation and Installation Manual

Preventive Maintenance - of oil red boiler reduces
operating costs. Boiler and vent pipe should be inspected
for accumulation of soot or scale deposits periodically
but at least once every year before start of each heating
season. When soot is present on section walls and
ueways, improper combustion will result, causing
additional sooting and scaling until ueways are completely
closed. To remove soot and scale from ueways, remove
top jacket panel, top clean-out plate, open burner swing
door. See Figure #26.
Periodic Inspection - and tightening of tankless heater/
cover plate bolts will reduce risk of leaks. See Replacement
Parts “Heat Exchanger” section.
