3.4 Routine servicing, maintenance & repair
General
PLEASE NOTE: During routine servicing, and after any maintenance or change of part of the combustion circuit, we
recommend that the following is checked:
•
The integrity of the flue system and the flue seals;
•
The integrity of the boiler combustion circuit and the relevant seals;
•
The operational (working) gas inlet pressure at maximum rate, as described in section 4.4;
•
The gas rate, as described in section 4.4;
•
The combustion performance, as described in section 3.4 Combustion check.
Competence to carry out the check of combustion performance
PLEASE NOTE: BS 6798: 2009 Specification for installation and maintenance of gas-fired boilers of rated input
not exceeding 70 kW net advises that:
•
The person carrying out a combustion measurement should have been assessed as competent in the use of a flue
gas analyser and the interpretation of the results;
•
The flue gas analyser used should be one meeting the requirements of BS7927 or BS-EN50379-3 and be calibrated
in accordance with the analyser manufacturers' requirements, and
•
Competence can be demonstrated by satisfactory completion of the CPA1 ACS assessment, which covers the use
of electronic portable combustion gas analysers in accordance with BS 7967, Parts 1 to 4.
Periodical check
To keep the unit working properly over time, it is necessary to have qualified personnel make an annual check that includes the fol-
lowing tests:
•
The control and safety devices (gas valve, flow meter, thermostats, etc.) must function correctly.
•
The fume extraction circuit must be fully efficient.
•
The airtight chamber must be sealed
air-flue terminal
•
The
•
The condensate evacuation system must be efficient with no leakage or obstructions.
•
The burner and exchanger must be clean and free of scale. When cleaning, do not use chemical products or wire brushes.
•
The electrode must be free of scale and properly positioned.
•
The gas and water systems must be airtight.
•
The water pressure in the cold water system must be about 1 bar; otherwise, bring it to that value.
•
The circulation pump must not be blocked.
•
The expansion tank must be filled.
•
The gas flow and pressure must correspond to that given in the respective tables.
The boiler casing, panel and aesthetic parts can be cleaned with a soft damp cloth, possibly soaked in soapy
A
water. Do not use any abrasive detergents and solvents.
