Trouble Shooting

Problem 1 - Inadequate heat being delivered to your building,

Solution

- Is boiler the recommended BTU size for your building?

- Check building insulation – is it adequate?

- Is water temperature at boiler hot enough? It should not exceed 180 degree.

- Is water circulating properly through your system? If not your system could be air locked. If your system is

air locked install an auto air bleed valve at the highest point of that zone.

- Do you have a circulator pump? If not install one if needed.

- Do you have a good draft of 0.06 water column? If not, check and clean chimney and single wall chimney

connectors

- Do you have the appropriate amount of floor heat or radiators?

- When burning coal your coal bed needs to be at least 8" deep throughout firebox.

Problem 2 - Boiler burns too hot

Solution

- Is boiler the recommended BTU size for your building?

- Turn Samson Regulator to low.

- Check gasket on all Ash Doors (replace if needed). All doors must be sealed.

Do you have a manuel draft damper? If so, close it.

- A windy day will create more draft. If you do not have a barometric damper or manuel damper when

burning coal, you must install one now. Read instructions on barometric damper before installing. At

least a 0.06 water column on all D.S. Coal Boilers.

- Manuel dampers work good but you need to be cautious because a manuel damper can restrict draft

so much that it can create carbon monoxide.

Problem 3 - Poor Draft

Solution

- Check and clean chimney and single wall chimney connectors

- Check chimney draft – there should be at least a 0.06 inch of water column. This service is provided

by a certified chimney sweep or a professional installer.

- Open manuel damper if you have one

- If you have barometric damper? Is it installed properly? Read the instructions.

- Check ash pit. If it is too full - empty it.

- There might be a cracked flue liner. If so you need to reline chimney before further use of the boiler.

- Make sure no other fuel burning devices are connected to the chimney impairing the draft.

- Make sure all of chimney mortar connections are airtight.

- Check chimney for possible down draft caused by taller surrounding trees or objects.

- Make sure clean-out door in the chimney is closed tight if you have one.

- When start up, the chimney is cold so you will have less draft.

Problem 4 - Odor from first fire

Solution

- Uncured paints and oils will create an odor that can last a few hours. Odors can continue to develop

if you make hot fires until the paint cures.
