You Should do These, Routinely, for Your Boiler’s Health
We’ve talked before about the importance of a routine. When it comes to protecting your investment and ability to maintain production, heat, steam for sterilization or anything else that requires your boiler to be at its best, routine is vital. The following is a list of suggested activities you can take, to take care of…
Project Highlight – Regional Medical Center
The Challenge: a boiler room designed to contain three 125HP boilers and a simple feed tank needed to be brought up to current standards. The hospital’s ownership evaluated the state of the facilities steam generating equipment and found them to be unsafe, inefficient, out-of-date, and close to the end of their useful lifespan. Beyond being safer…
Customer Success Story – Commercial Bakery
The Challenge: a local commercial bakery’s boiler had seen better days, due to ineffective boiler service. There boiler was less efficient than optimum due to severe water side scaling, which reduces heat transfer into the water (heat instead is wasted out of the stack), and unreliable due to fouling of the burner’s internal. The baker was…

Low NOx Without Flue Gas Recirculation
Low NOx, sub 30PPM, often means utilizing a burner with some means of Flue Gas Recirculation. This technology effectively reduces NOx by using “cooled flue gases from the boiler stack as a source of dilution gas. They are very low in oxygen content and are composed of inert compounds like nitrogen, water vapor and carbon…
What is NOx?
NOx, or Oxides of Nitrogen is formed in all combustion processed. It is a general term that includes two forms; Nitric Oxide (NO) and Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2). NO2 is formed when NO is subjected atmospheric Oxygen. What are the Environmental and Health Concerns? When NOx reacts with hydrocarbons and oxygen in the presence of sunlight,…
What is Combustion?
What is it? Combustion, or burning, is a rapid combination of oxygen with a fuel, resulting in a release of heat and light. The oxygen comes from the combustion air, which is approximately 21% oxygen (O2) and 79% Nitrogen (N2). Hydrocarbon fuels contain carbon, hydrogen and in some cases, sulfur and nitrogen. Natural and LP…

Annual Boiler Inspections, What’s all the Fuss?
Have you ever asked the following questions: Do I need a boiler inspection? Why? What should the boiler inspection include? Who carries out the boiler inspection? What do I need to do, before and after the boiler inspection? Who preps the boiler for inspection? What is a boiler inspection certificate? What do I do about…
