SECTION 1. Caring For Your Brute Deluxe
Your Brute Deluxe will require very little maintenance. However, as with any fine appliance, there are certain steps that should be taken to ensure continuing optimum performance.
1.1 General Care
Keep the area around the Brute Deluxe clean and free from combustible
materials, gasoline, and other flammable liquids and vapors.
The Brute Deluxe must be completely isolated and protected from any source of
corrosive chemical fumes such as trichloroethylene, perchloroethylene,
chlorine, etc.
Keep grille openings on the boiler free for proper ventilation of interior
components.
Do not obstruct or block a free flow of air to the boiler to ensure proper
ventilation.
If desired, clean the jacket surfaces with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Do
not use flammable cleaning materials.
If sidewall vented, keep the vent terminal clear of obstructions — do not pile
snow against the vent terminal. Clean the air filter(s) often, and then
develop an appropriate maintenance schedule.
1.2 Annual Inspection of Flue and Vents
Visually inspect the vent pipe once a year. Should any deterioration exist,
have the affected parts replaced by a qualified service person.
1.3 Shutting Down the Brute Deluxe
- Switch off the main electrical disconnect switch.
- Close all manual gas valves.
- If freezing is anticipated, drain the Brute Deluxe and be sure to also protect the building piping from freezing.
This step is to be performed by a qualified service person.
1.4 To Restart the Brute Deluxe
If drained, follow the Installation and Operation Manual for proper filling and purging.
- Switch off the main electrical disconnect switch.
- Close all manual gas valves.
- WAIT FIVE (5) MINUTES.
- Set the aquastat or thermostat to its lowest setting.
- Open all manual gas valves.
- Reset all safety switches (low water cut off, manual reset high limit, etc.).
- Set the temperature controller to the desired temperature setting and switch on electrical power.
- The burner will go through a pre-purge period and ignitor warm-up period, followed by ignition.
1.5 In the event of a Power Failure
The Brute Deluxe can not be operated during an electrical power outage. If
there is an extended power outage with the danger of freezing, then the Brute
Deluxe (and all other water systems) should be drained completely. When
draining the boiler, turn off the main electrical disconnect switch. When
placing back in service, refer to start-up instructions in the Installation
and Operation Manual for filling and purging. Draining and filling shall only
be done by a qualified service person.
1.6 Full Service Every Three (3) Years
In addition to the annual visual inspections, a qualified service agency
should conduct a detailed inspection of all flue product carrying areas of the
boiler and its venting system.
WARNING
Do not use this boiler if any part has been under water. Immediately call a
qualified service technician to inspect the boiler and replace any part of the
control system and any gas control which has been under water.
WARNING
Should overheating occur or the gas supply fail to shut off, do not turn off
or disconnect the electrical supply to the pump. Instead, shut off the gas
supply at a location external to the boiler.
