Dunkirk boiler maintenance tips
Check the flue passages, combustion chamber, burner flame size, control operations and boiler seals and gaskets yearly. Before starting your Dunkirk boiler each season, check the system for water, oil and vent leaks. Repair any leaks before starting the boiler. Inspect the boiler vent system monthly for corrosion, leaks or soot buildup. Replace any leaking or corroded components. Clean soot out of the vent as needed.
