Boiler Maintenance Tips

What a hassle it would be if your boiler breaks down especially before the winter season comes. To keep the unit efficient at supplying hot water and warming in the home, and to ensure added lifespan and help save you costs on ceaseless repairs, a proper tune-up of the boiler must be considered.

Take a look at these tips for your boiler maintenance.

• Clear dirt blockage of air vents, and flues regularly.
• Clear dust on the fan and other boiler parts regularly to prevent sludge buildup.
• Lubricate the fans and pumps and other parts that are in frequent motion.
• Check for leaks.
• De-scale excessive lime-scale within the unit for it to keep performing at its best heating capacity.
• Keep the pressure of the boiler between 12 psi and  29 psi so it could run properly.
