Daily Steam Boiler Maintenance in the Boiler Room - Boiling Point

[@randystephens1050]

As a first Grade Engineer and retired Navy Boiler Technician I have been operating 200-2600 PSI boilers for almost 40 years on Ships, Power Plants and district heating plants. This is a good video for people with not much experience.

[@marcusnelson1094]

When we do our refresher classes every year we always watch this video and it definitely breaks everything down on what you should do daily. I appreciate the valuable information.

[@wareboilers]

Awesome to hear! Glad we can be a resource for you!

[@gregmichelman5645]

thanks for sharing, very informative. For a guy in the boiler business, we need more videos like this.

[@wareboilers]

Glad we could help! Thanks for watching and the kind words.

[@easkeybikes1966]

I hope there are more guys like Michael in the pipeline, his working knowledge and experience is priceless. We need to bring Industrial Arts back to the public school system and encourage entry into the skilled trades.

[@wareboilers]

We totally agree. We are hoping that videos like this and others we help out the coming up generation that are getting into the mechanical fields. Thanks for your comment and watching!

[@philcanis-on3096]

Thank you guys to have a video like this. It is very educational and give us lots of information about boiler maintenance. Thumbs up!!!

[@wareboilers]

Thanks for the comment! The best way to keep your boiler safe and running efficiently is to make sure to keep up with maintenance. Getting this information out is the best way to help spread the word.

[@deadfox03]

Thanks to your channel and some other research, I was able to pass an exam to start training for a power house engineer! Thank you so much for your amazing videos and keep it coming because I have a LOT to learn still! I start my new career after the holidays and this makes for a very merry Christmas for my girls!

[@wareboilers]

Congratulations! Hopefully things are going great with your new career and thanks for watching.

Hey, I'm about to start my first boiler operator trainee job and a video on "The daily routine of a boiler operator" for different types of boilers would be really beneficial to somebody like me!

[@enjoilyfe]

Thank you. I can make up safety checklist for daily inspections based on this.

[@wareboilers]

Thanks for watching! Take a look at this preventive maintenance checklist we have created www.wareinc.com/download-the-boiler-preventative-maintenance-checklist It might give you a good start.

[@Canalyoutubechido]

I'm having an issue with a pool max error code on a hi delta raypak boiler and was wondering if I could get some help.

[@esantorcad5591]

Thank you so much!! Very Useful Video. :)

[@ThanhNguyen-sq2fd]

I am automating the bottom/intermittent blowdown valves (2). How fast/slow should the stroke time be? Both my valves are slow-opening valves (>5 360 deg turn per stroke), but no where does it relate to the stroke time.

[@edinamonsoon4794]

This video was to-the-point and very helpful! Cheers

[@wareboilers]

Thanks for watching and glad we could help!

[@bestcommenteronyoutube9338]

Great vids. May I post these videos / links within the blog section of my website? I work in CT and many building owners need to see these videos! Scratch that, every NYC building owner needs to see these vids.

[@wareboilers]

Of course! Take a look at some of our other video that we have done and you might find others that could help. Thanks for the comment!

[@jcvr1983]

Thanks for watching! Please make sure to hit that like button and share! We want to really get this information out there.

[@cck0728]

Excellent video. Fire tube boilers are more prone to explosion than water tube boilers/HRSGs. So be careful.

[@wareboilers]

Thanks for watching! Any boiler can be prone to explosions if maintenance is not properly done. Just the same any boiler can be just as safe if it is looked after and cared for.

[@vipleather]

Blow down lowers TDS (total dissolved solids ) that attach to boiler tubes and creates havoc to boilers. Softeners using salt is a chemical reaction that causes the collective products of hard water like calcium and iron to be collected and released using salt water solution regeneration cycle. These solids are rinsed and drained to the sewer. And the timed process starts over again.

[@redpeterdragon.impressions3868]

Oh, like those tank less water heaters, you turn the cold water on a little bit in the shower first then you turn on the hot water all the way, so the cold water in the pipes start to move and the hot water heats up at the same time, makeing a nice hot to warm shower faster to happen.

[@johnandoyare3353]

THANK YOU FOR VID, WANNA ASK ABOUT SAFETY VALVE SHOULD I BLOW DAILY

[@wareboilers]

Thanks for watching. The best way to ask questions about your specific steam system would be to contact us directly. www.wareinc.com/contact-us Throw us a message and we can see what we can do!

Hi I`m a elementary school custodian and newly appointed Head Custodian. With that said I`m familiar with all types of Boilers and their operation. Question ; I may be required to shut of the Main water supply in an emergency, is there a procedure for this? should I shut off Boiler then pumps before water is shut off? Thank you

[@wareboilers]

Absolutely. Shut the main header valves off to maintain heat and water level, then shut the boiler off. Next shut down the pumps before shutting off the water supply. Simply reverse this procedure when you turn the main water supply back on. Let the boiler get back up to operating pressure before slowly opening the main header valves and then resume normal operation. Hopefully that helps. Take a look at our Boiler University www.wareinc.com/boiler-training/boiler-university this might be something you could be interested in.

[@jw1987]

Yes thank you for your quick response

[@masaibilaly5181]

Hi am boiler operator... 170tph..wat about this one

[@marielg1648]

I live in an apartment bullding 12 floors I live on the 12 the boiler room is one floor above me I am getting a smell of antifreeze? at least I think it is and for a while I have been getting the sound that a refrigerator does when it is about to break down that has stopped now I am hearing a vibration noise very loud we have been telling our apartment manager about this.fir weeks nothing ever gets done should this be a cause for concern

[@wareboilers]

Hmm not really sure how we can help with this one. The only thing we could suggest is to keep talking to your apartment manager about this and hopefully it gets fixed. Good luck and thanks for watching!

[@vipleather]

Marie Blackmore they are using glycol for the hot water loop to heat your building. There’s probably a leak and you should notify the property management.

[@marielg1648]

vipleather I have they do not seem to care think my next step I court

[@realestateservicessaleshea99]

As a fellow operator that chair doesn't look comfortable!😜🍺🍺🍺🥃🥃😅🤣😆😂 Stay safe. 30+ years in. Wear your safety glasses!

Very nice! Good to hear that you are blowing down properly. That helps out incredibly with the health of your boiler. Thanks for watching

[@mmmm5201]

[@hak1th]

Sorry, maybe you know what I need to get a job? I'm in USA. In Virginia. I have 10 years of experience as a boiler operator on steam boilers in my country. but I'm an emigrant. I have a legal status, but low English. Thanks.

[@wareboilers]

Not really sure how to help unfortunately. Having that 10 years of experience can be very useful though. Good luck and thanks for watching!

[@hak1th]

@@wareboilers Thank you also for your help in learning English terms.
