Proper maintenance extends boiler life and improves efficiency. Here are top 5 tips:
1. Regular Inspection
Check pressure, temperature, and water levels daily. Look for leaks or unusual noises.
2. Water Treatment
Use proper water treatment to prevent scale and corrosion. Test water quality weekly.
3. Clean Heat Transfer Surfaces
Soot and scale reduce efficiency. Clean tubes and furnace monthly.
