Boiler Warmer
Posted on Sunday, March 7th, 2010 at 1:03 pm
How do you set a gas boiler to “lazy blue” flames? ?
We recently had a home inspector tell us that we should have our boiler set to “lazy blue” flames. He asked if our house warms up really quickly, then becomes cold almost as quickly. We told him that it did, and he said it is because our gas boiler is using the wrong type of flame setting, and turning on and off too much. Any have any info on this,is this something we can do ourselves?
Thanks for all the answers!
Hawk1151, one thermostat is a digital Hunter (downstairs) and the other is a digital Hunneywell (upstairs), thanks.
These adjustments are not for the do-it yourself-er.
If there is a problem the orifices would need to be checked to be sure they are proper and the gas pressure and air adjustments.
A qualified person is needed to ensure everything is proper, after that its just a matter of maintenance and occasionally cleaning
