A gas boiler is a heating device that requires proper attention and proper operation. Despite the fact that it is of great benefit, it can also cause serious harm to a person's life. Therefore, it is important to know the basic rules for using such a device.
Instructions
Step 1
The gas boiler has several advantages: availability; environmental friendliness, since natural gas is used; ease of use and compactness. But there is one serious drawback - this is high voltage. In view of this, it is important that the gas boiler meets all fire safety requirements. For example, one of these requirements is the presence of a separate ventilated room with a chimney and the presence of special equipment on the boiler, so that in the event of a gas leak, you can quickly block its access.
Step 2
Before you start using the gas boiler, you should carefully study the operating instructions, make sure that the heating system contains the required amount of liquid, and also check the boiler's serviceability. The safety valve and the combustion field must be in working order. If necessary, the heating system should be recharged with water by opening the tap.
Step 3
It is important to make sure that there are no extraneous odors and other unnecessary debris in the room, check the condition of the flue gas pipe and the absence of draft in it. If there is a thrust, you can check with a burning match by holding it to the slit of the traction breaker. After that, the boiler valve can be opened.
Step 4
Immediately before ignition, the protective film, if any, is removed from the burner and the burner window is opened. Fire is brought to the center of the field. Within 6 seconds, a small pop should appear, which will mean that ignition has occurred. If suddenly this does not happen, you should immediately close the valve on the boiler and properly ventilate the room. It is possible to reignite after 20 minutes, no less.
Step 5
When operating a gas boiler, it is important to ensure that the characteristic smell of gas does not arise in the room and that the temperature is not higher than 90 ° C, but also does not fall below 60 ° C. In addition, after and during the operation of the boiler, the draft should be checked periodically. The boiler burner must be cleaned regularly. The boiler should be turned off in the reverse order.
