Boilers Malfunctioning Reasons and When They Need Maintenance Assistance

The operating conditions of the boiler include its operating mode. It is no secret that constant switching on and off of the boiler leads to increased wear and tear of gas valves, pumps, burners and significantly reduces its efficiency and service life also leads to an increase in gas consumption. This is especially true when the boiler turns on at full capacity, quickly heats up the system, and turns off. It is most optimal when the boiler controls, for example, at 30% of its capacity, but for a long time, without surges, in a balanced manner.

How to make the boiler work rhythmically, with long periods of work and rest?
  1. Recently, cases of domestic gas explosions in residential buildings have become more frequent. The reason for this is mainly unauthorized replacement and installation of gas equipment, its improper operation. Often, gas equipment has been operated without technical supervision and proper maintenance for many years. As a result - wear and tear of gas equipment, operation of faulty gas equipment. All this is the cause of emergencies, which often lead to the destruction of buildings, the death of people.
  2. In the Bronx, the water is hard and requires special attention, twice a year to carry out maintenance. And once a year or once every three years. Overhaul of the heat exchanger. (Depends on the operating conditions of the Gas Equipment)

3. During operation, the boiler consumes air from the street or from the room in which it is installed. During combustion, deposits of soot and burnt dust appear on the heat transfer surfaces. During operation, due to contamination of the nozzles with carbon and soot, the efficiency of the boiler and heating system decreases. This leads to an unreasonable increase in fuel consumption and, as a consequence, the cost of maintaining heating networks. At low gas pressure, it is possible that an effect may appear, in which the fire "sits" on the burner. In this case, the boiler output decreases and burner nozzles may burn out. But inserting blue max gaskets will increase the effectiveness of the boiler and increase the output.

4. Let's take a closer look at this issue. Choosing any household appliances for the home, we strive to ensure that it is of the highest quality. Therefore, as a rule, the choice comes down to one of the manufacturers of imported household appliances. And gas equipment is no exception to this rule. It's just that it is being developed for operation in other conditions. For example, in winter and therefore the heating season is much longer here than in other states. Therefore, maintenance of the gas boiler has to be done more often to increase its efficiency and work life.

Often, the pressure and composition of the gas mixture in the pipes are also far from the calculated one. This leads to increased wear and tear of the equipment, which means that the repair of the gas boiler will have to be done more often.

5. According to the rules of operation of gas equipment, it is necessary to service the gas boiler before the beginning of every summer season. This should be done by a representative of the service organization who has a certificate for servicing boilers. As part of such an examination,

a complete diagnosis of all parts of the system is carried out and, if necessary, the gas boiler is repaired. This includes checking the electronic and mechanical parts. Special requirements are imposed on the mechanics when servicing boilers. Since the gas is explosive, a clogged nozzle can leak and cause a fire.

6. Poor quality of commissioning, as well as commissioning of equipment by unqualified personnel, or by the Customer independently, leads, ultimately, to its short-lived and incorrect operation.

What the boiler needs to pay attention to:
  1. In the heating system, the pressure is constantly dropping, you have to regularly feed the boiler.
  2. When the boiler is in operation, the pressure rises to the maximum; when using hot water, it drops to zero.
  3. Indicator lights are constantly on or error messages are displayed on the screen.
  4. The boiler emits extraneous sounds during operation.
  5. For example, if a gas boiler is used only during the summer cottage or vice versa only in winter?

Under these operating conditions, we recommend inserting teflon gasket also boiler is serviced before putting it into operation to prevent the boiler from leakage and wear and tear of gas.

6. When hot water is turned on, there are interruptions, sometimes warm water, sometimes cool, as a result of the fact that your heat exchanger is covered with scale and it is important to rinse it for efficient use of hot water.
