- Boiler system fl ushing (Not Boiler heat exchanger)
When replacing an existing boiler the heating system should be fl ushed with
the old boiler in place before the new boiler is added to the system. If the old
boiler has already been removed a bypass must be piped in when the new boiler
is installed in order to facilitate the fl ushing of the system.
The boiler must be valved off from the system, while the system is fl ushed.
No system cleaner should ever enter the boiler heat exchanger because of its
caustic nature it could damage the heat exchanger.
1. Close the shutoff valves on both the supply and return connections on the plumbing
kit (V1 and V2).
2. Open the bypass valve (V4).
3. Connect pump outlet hose (H1) to the supply side purge station (BD1)
4. Connect drain hose (H3) to the return side purge station (BD2).
5. Pour the system cleaner into a pail and follow the system cleaner instructions
about circulation time and volume to be added to the system.
6. Operate the charging pump (CP) and charge the system with the required volume
of system cleaner
7. Close the supply side purge station (BD1)
8. Turn on the system pump(s) (SP) and circulate the cleaner through the system
for required time by the cleaner manufacturer.
9. Once the time required by the system cleaner manufacturer has been met place
the drain hose (H3) in a drain.
10. Turn off the system pump(s) (SP)
11. Close the main valve on the system return (V3) and open the return side purge
station (BD2).
