Reported Problems

Any problems reported by the owner should be
checked, verified and corrected before pro-
ceeding with any maintenance procedures.

Check Surrounding Area

Verify that the area surrounding the PRES-
TIGE Excellence is free of combustible / flam-
mable materials or flammable vapors or liq-
uids. Remove immediately if found.
Verify that combustion air inlet area is free of
any contaminates. Refer to the materials listed
on page 5 of this manual. If any of these prod-
ucts are in the area from which the unit takes
its combustion air, they must be removed
immediately or the combustion air intake must
be relocated to another area.

Inspect Burner Area

Remove the boiler front jacket panel and ven-
turi inlet elbow.
Vacuum any dirt or debris from the
burner/blower components.
Check the burner plate mounting nuts for tightness.
Check burner plate gasket for discoloration or
damage.
Re-install venturi inlet elbow and front jacket
panel when completed.
WARNING
Do not use solvents to clean any of the
burner components.
could be damaged, resulting in unreli-
able or unsafe operation.

Check System Piping

Inspect all piping (water and gas) on the boiler
system for leaks and verify that the piping is
leak free and properly supported.
Inspect the fittings and components on the unit
and verify they are leak free.
WARNING
Eliminate all boiler water system leaks.
Continual fresh make-up water will
reduce the heat exchanger life causing
boiler failure. Leaking water may also
cause severe property damage to the sur-
rounding area. Inspect the gas supply
piping using the procedure outlined on
Page 57.
