BOILER MAINTENANCE CHECKLIST: Daily Maintenance

Use this checklist for the daily maintenance of your boiler. Regularly servicing your boiler ensures it is combusting fuel safely and efficiently, minimizing the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning .

Check boiler water level in the sight glass and the steam pressure on the gauge to the steam boilers. Check temperature reading and water pressure on hot water boilers. Record this in your logbook.

Check the low water cutoff operation by opening the blow down valve on the low water cutoff to remove rust and dirt. Determine that the burner cuts out with low water in the sight glass. Immediate corrective action must be taken if burner does not cut off with low water in the sight glass. Record this in your logbook.

Turn off burner control switch and close pilot manual gas cock. Turn on burner control switch and determine that burner flame safeguard locks out on flame failure before the main gas valve is energized. Immediate corrective action must be taken if flame safeguard does not lock out to indicate flame failure. Record this in your logbook.

Observe the operation of the boiler limit and operating controls to determine that the burner is being cut off at the proper setting. Adjust per the manufacturer’s instruction sheet as required. Record this in your logbook.
