Is it correct to maintain a wall mounted boiler in your home during non heating season?

Nowadays, the popularity of wall mounted boilers is increasing. As the weather becomes increasingly hot, some families are gradually starting to stop using wall mounted boilers to provide hot water for daily life. It can be said that wall mounted boilers will be idle in the short term. So, this is the perfect time to perform maintenance or upkeep on the wall mounted boiler. Today, the editor will tell you the following maintenance points to pay attention to when the wall mounted boiler is idle, for your reference!

Turn off the power and valves

Isolate gas, water, and electricity to achieve zero consumption, thereby saving costs on the basis of safety. If the power is turned off, it is best to unplug the power plug, because there are often thunderstorms in summer, and thunder can cause damage to the wall mounted boiler.

Check for water leakage

After shutdown, the temperature of the wall mounted boiler facility decreases, and due to thermal expansion and contraction, it may cause water leakage at various interfaces and valves of the pipeline. Therefore, it is recommended to carefully check if there is any water leakage at the interface after discontinuation. If there is a slight water leakage, you can temporarily use a towel to absorb water and then contact maintenance as soon as possible.

Clean up scale and impurities

The cleaning of scale and impurities is a very important maintenance process. In some areas, the water quality is relatively hard, and the mineral composition makes water pipelines prone to scale and impurities, which directly affect the heat exchange efficiency and service life of wall mounted boilers. Choose specialized cleaning agents and have professional wall mounted boiler after-sales personnel operate them.

Clean the exterior well

After the wall mounted boiler is stopped, the surface of the boiler will accumulate dust and oil stains, which requires cleaning and sweeping of the boiler shell. When cleaning, please use a soft towel or brush and do not use any type of organic solution. After the cleaning work is completed, put a dust cover on the wall mounted boiler.

Perform full water maintenance

Heating systems are generally enclosed, and the water inside does not interact with the water outside, which can reduce the air in the water. It can be said that full water maintenance can minimize the oxygen content in water, prevent oxygen corrosion, and extend the service life of wall mounted boilers.

Regularly check the chimney

To prevent rainwater from entering the boiler through the chimney and causing damage to the wall mounted boiler, it is necessary to regularly inspect the outdoor chimney of the wall mounted boiler.

Finally, the editor would like to say that proper and reasonable maintenance and upkeep of wall mounted boilers not only ensure their safety and ease of use, but more importantly, can greatly save your family expenses. Why not do it?
