To obtain service, please call your installer or Glow-worm's
own service organisation.
PLEASE NOTE: During routine servicing, and after any
maintenance, we recommend that the following must be
checked:
-
- The integrity of the boiler combustion circuit and the relevant
seals,
- The operational (working) gas inlet pressure at maximum
rate,
- The gas rate,
- The combustion performance.
See the "Safety instructions" chapter for a list of operations
to be performed prior to the maintenance of the application.
Once the maintenance operations have been completed,
consult the ¨Start Up¨ chapter to restart the appliance.

18.1.4 Corrosion and anti-sludge protection
In order to avoid corrosion, the addition of a corrosion inhibiter
to the heating circuit water is recommended. The inhibiter will
stop electrolytic reaction and bacterial growth between the
different metals used in the installation.
It will also avoid the formation of gas which could be produced
following the chemical reactions.
systems, as low temperatures favour bacterial growth. This can
lead to the formation of sludge, which in turn may block some or
all of the circuits.
In order to add the correct dosage of these products, you must
know the volume of water contained in the installation. It is
recommended that you note down the volume for future needs.
The inhibitors must be compatible with the materials employed
in the installation.
