You may have grown accustomed to seeing discolored or rusty boiler water, to the point where it may seem normal. Did you know that the water in your steam boiler system should be crystal clear? Whether your water is slightly discolored or is a rusty sludge, this can be a sign that the metal surfaces of your steam system have scaling and corrosion. Once that happens, many problems can occur.
Mechanically, it can mean impending system failure, costly repairs, and a shorter lifespan of your boiler. Scaling and corrosion also negatively affect the performance of your steam boiler, increasing your energy and water usage and driving up your utility bills.
For boilers that are shut down during warm weather season, Spring is the ideal time for boiler maintenance and inspections. Don’t forget to assess your water treatment to ensure your steam boiler works efficiently when you start it up in the Fall.
As you get your boilers ready for cold weather season, don’t forget to check your boiler water treatment systems. Taking proper steps now can prevent untimely issues from occurring while your boiler is in full operation.
