Common operating concerns

The same symptom can come from equipment, controls, distribution, load, utilities, or connected systems. Qualified diagnosis uses documentation and measurements.

• Ignition, combustion, pressure, temperature, lockout, or venting problems
• Leaks, scale, corrosion, water quality, air, pump, or valve faults
• Turndown, load, redundancy, controls, distribution, and code considerations

Maintenance priorities

Qualified programs should follow equipment and jurisdictional requirements for combustion, safeties, venting, water, pressure, controls, pumps, valves, cleaning, and records.

Repair, retrofit, and replacement decisions

Safety, vessel and heat-exchanger condition, combustion, venting, water, controls, load, redundancy, distribution, fuel, downtime, and lifecycle cost drive scope.
