Call your service organization if pressures are higher or lower than normal, and if the relief valve spills water. Repair or adjustment is needed. (3B) On steam boilers: (a) The water level in the gauge glass must be kept constant. You must have your installer or service organization explain to you how water is added to maintain water level. (b) Most boiler models are equipped with float type low water cutoff. You must be familiar with this LOW WATER CUTOFF, how it works and HOW TO BLOW IT DOWN. Instructions are supplied with it. Ask your service organization to explain and show you blowdown. The cutoff should be blown down three times the first week and should be blown down weekly thereafter. Maintenance of the low water cutoff is vital in protecting your steam boiler against breakage due to loss of water. If your boiler is equipped with an electronic probe type low water cutoff, it requires periodic testing. Ask your service agency to test this low water cutoff twice a year. (4) Study the labels attached to your boiler, especially the LIGHTING AND SHUTDOWN instructions. Have your installer or service organization show you how to start and shut down the boiler following those instructions. The lighting instructions on your boiler are also reproduced, with pictures, in this manual. (5) Stand near the boiler, look and listen. As the burners start and shut off, there should be no unusual noise. No fire should be visible coming out of the front when the burners start or run. (6) Ample air is required for your boiler to burn fuel cleanly and safely. Check to make sure the openings provided in your house are not closed and are not obstructed. This is most important in colder weather, when most air is needed. Inspection, cleaning, repair— Chimney, flue pipe and boiler Your boiler and heating system will last an indefinitely long time at full efficiency, if it is inspected regularly and is kept in good repair and adjustment. You, the user, should make regular inspections, and report any problems to your service agency. At regular intervals, you should have that agency inspect the system, and clean the boiler and make repairs and adjustments as necessary. What you and the service agency should do are listed below. Contact your gas supplier for a list of qualified service and repair agencies. User inspection At least once each month during the heating season and once just before cold weather starts: (1) Look closely at the smokepipe and draft hood (see Figure 18, 19 & 20). Make sure pipe joints are snug and are fastened with screws. Cement at the chimney joint should fill the joint and should not leak air. There should be no visible signs of rust (corrosion) or salts from water evaporation. (2) Look at all water (or steam) piping. There should be no leaks or signs of leaks at any pipe joints or around the boiler. Drain valves, other valves, and the relief valve (or steam safety valve) should not drip or leak. (3A) On water boilers: The temperature and pressure gauge indicates the pressure in the boiler at each water temperature. For most installations, it should indicate about 12 to 15 psi pressure when temperature is about 70 to 100 degrees F, and from 15 psi to 25 psi when temperature is up to 240 degrees F. FOR YOUR SYSTEM, there is one correct pressure for each temperature. ASK YOUR INSTALLER OR SERVICEPERSON TO EXPLAIN AND SHOW YOU. Learn what normal pressures to look for. If pressure decreases from normal, your system is losing water. If presFigure 18. (Galaxy GG, GX, GXH, Sentinel SE, Sentry SX boilers) Figure 20. Figure 19. Your gas boiler must be installed and serviced by a qualified service agency or gas supplier. The lack of proper service can result in a dangerous condition. 5 Figure 21. (7) If equipped with vent damper, which can ONLY be installed on boilers equipped with 24 volt gas valve: (a) Your vent damper must be OPEN when the boiler is operating (BURNERS ARE ON). Ask your installer or serviceperson to show you the vent damper position indicator, indicating the open and closed damper positions. Inspect for proper operation monthly. If damper position indicator indicates that the damper is closed when the boiler is operating, SHUTDOWN the boiler immediately and call your service agency. (b) This device must be installed and inspected annually by a qualified installer in accordance with the Slant/Fin vent damper installation instructions. If improperly installed, a hazardous condition such as explosion or carbon monoxide poisoning could result. If installed improperly, all vent damper and boiler warranties shall be voided. If you find during your inspection any unusual noise, water leak, corroded smokepipe, abnormal water pressure or flame rollout, call for service immediately. CLEANING—BOILER, SMOKEPIPE, CHIMNEY (See Figure 21). If necessary as indicated in (4) of Service Inspection section, the selected service organization should clean the boiler as follows: (1) Shut off electric power and gas supply. SERVICE INSPECTION The selected service organization should make these inspections, preferably once each year, before the cold weather begins: (1) Make the checks for leaks, corrosion, noise, flame, heat and outside air supply described under User’s Inspection. (2) Disconnect smokepipe and remove draft hood. (3) Remove jacket top panel. Remove flue cover from boiler. (4) Remove access door and remove burners, or place cover over burners for dirt protection. (2) Check safety operation of the HIGH LIMIT CONTROL (and, for steam boilers, the LOW WATER CUTOFF) and GAS VALVE. If the boiler is equipped with an automatic vent damper, check this device for safe and automatic operation. (5) Brush down boiler flues to bare metal. Clean all debris from bottom of boiler after brushing. Clean burner slots, if necessary. (6) Replace flue cover and seal with furnace cement. Replace burners if removed. Replace access door. (3) Check gas input rate, by clocking the gas meter. Inspect burner flame. Clean and adjust burners and adjust gas rate as required. (7) Inspect draft hood and smokepipe. If corroded, replace. If soot or deposits from condensation are found, clean out, and inspect inside of chimney for soot or other deposits. Clean if necessary. (4) Disconnect flue pipe from draft hood. Remove draft hood and inspect boiler heating surface below. If any soot, scale or rust is visible, clean the boiler as described in the next section. (8) Reconnect hood and flue pipe and fasten and seal all joints. Turn on gas and electric power. (9) Check boiler performance after cleaning, and adjust as necessary. (5) Replace any corroded smokepipe. Repair or replace other devices as found necessary. Check and adjust for normal operation. Explain to the user what was done and what to look for to prevent future problems. NOTE: Condensate (water), rust, scale and soot are not found in the boiler or smokepipe of normally operating system. If any of these is found, eliminate the cause. The most likely cause of condensate and corrosion or soot is (a) restricted air supply, or (b) a faulty chimney. Your gas boiler must be installed and serviced by a qualified service agency or gas supplier. The lack of proper service can result in a dangerous condition. 6 VENT DAMPERS SAFETY AND LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS A Slant/Fin vent damper is available only as part of a Slant/Fin gas boiler package equipped with a 24 volt gas valve. This vent damper is design certified by A.G.A. for use only on specific Slant/Fin Corporation gas boiler models.
