REDUCES EMISSIONS OF COMBUSTION GASES AND HARMFUL COMPOUNDS INTO THE ATMOSPHERE

ACTION

Powder for catalytic chimney cleaning that makes the tar collected in chimney flues non-flammable. These deposits are responsible for most chimney fires. Used similarly to chemical chimney cleaning products before mechanical cleaning to increase maintenance effectiveness throughout the heating season. Suitable for coal, wood, or mazut stoves, for open or closed fireplaces with inserts, for all boilers except fuel and gas boilers. Suitable for all types of flues.

WHY CLEAN THE BOILER

To ensure economical fuel consumption and achieve the declared power and thermal efficiency of the boiler, it is necessary to keep the combustion chamber and convection channels properly clean. While using our central heating system correctly, we cannot prevent dirt inside the boiler, which is the heat source. Burning solid fuels causes soot and ash to deposit on the walls of exhaust ducts. This, in turn, causes a decrease in the boiler's thermal power and an increase in fuel consumption. This is caused by reduced chimney draft and accelerated fuel combustion. Therefore, to prevent deterioration of the thermal properties of our boiler, we should not forget to clean it frequently.

In the boiler's firebox, special attention should be paid to periodic cleaning of micro-cracks in the automatic grate plate. Cleaning of convection channels, where volatile ashes settle, should be done systematically every 3 to 7 days, especially when using the boiler in "traditional firebox" mode. An important issue is the frequency of cleaning the central heating boiler. If the fuel burned is coal or suitable quality wood, cleaning once every few weeks should suffice. However, if burning coke, cleaning should be done more frequently - once every 7 to 10 days. Once every few years, the boiler should be cleaned of so-called scale. For this, special solutions dissolving deposits are used (e.g., aqueous hydrochloric acid solution).

Tools equipped with the boiler are used for cleaning. Cleaning the boiler's convection channels is enabled by front cleaning doors and firing/loading doors. Additionally, periodic cleaning of the air chamber located at the rear of the boiler, where dust falling from the automatic grate plate accumulates, should be performed. This cleaning is done through the side cleaning door.

For cleaning solid fuel boilers, wire brushes or pokers are used. Large boilers can be cleaned with compressed air. Cleaning is done through the boiler's cleaning openings, remembering to keep the flue gas damper in the flue pipe open. Boilers may have numerous such openings located variously (top, side, or rear). Remaining ash is cleaned through the lower cleaning door of the boiler using a scraper. After finishing work, remember to hermetically close all cleaning openings.

Cleaning the chimney flue is also essential for proper boiler operation.

After the heating season or in other cases of planned boiler shutdown, the loaded portion of fuel should be burned out. After extinguishing the boiler and cooling it down, all residues of burned fuel should be removed from the firebox, and the entire boiler cleaned and maintained. Maintenance (by oiling) of the internal partitions of the fire chamber and all moving parts should be performed. During the boiler downtime, special protection should be given to the fuel feeding mechanism to the fire chamber by lubricating the horizontal guides.
