Check/test . . .
Gas piping
1. Sniffnearoorandaroundboilerareaforanyin-
dication of a gas leak.
2.
Test gas piping using bubble test,perSection5
of this manual, if there is any indication of a leak.
Cold fill and operating pressures
1. While the system is cold, note the pressure reading
ontheboilerpressure/temperaturegauge.Verifythat
cold fill pressure is correct.
2.
Watch the pressure as the boiler and system heat
up to ensure pressure rise is normal. Too high a rise
would indicate a waterlogged or undersized expan-
sion tank.
Air vents and air elimination
1. Inspectautomaticairvents(ifused).Alsoinspect
air separators to ensure they are operational.
2. The cap must be unscrewed one turn to allow air to
escape.
3. See
Figure 22. If the air vent is leaking, remove cap
A and briefly push valve B and then release to clean
the valve seat.
4. Replace cap
A by twisting all the way onto valve B
and then unscrewing one turn.

eration by turning control set point below boiler
temperature.Boilershouldcycleoff.Returndialto
original setting.
2. Inspect and test additional limit controls or low
water cutoffs installed on system.
Expansion tank
1. Expansiontanksprovidespaceforwatertomovein
an out as the heating system water expands due to
temperature increase or contracts as the water cools.
Tanks may be open, closed or diaphragm or bladder
type.SeeSection3 of this manual for suggested best
location of expansion tanks and air eliminators.
Open-type located above highest radiator or
baseboard unit, usually in the attic or closet. Has a
gauge glass and overflow pipe to a drain.
Closed-type welded gas tight and located above
boiler. Tank is partially filled with water, leaving an
air cushion for expansion.

, suchasthe B & G Tank-Trol or Taco
Taco-Trol. This fitting reduces gravity circula-
tion of air-saturated tank water back to the
system and prevents the air from bubbling up
through the water as it returns from the sys-
tem.
•
Do not use automatic air vents in systems
with closed-type tanks.
The air will escape
from the system instead of returning to the tank.
Eventually,thetankwillwaterlogandnolonger
control pressurization. The boiler relief valve
will weep frequently.
Diaphragm- or bladder-type welded gas tight
with a rubber membrane to separate the tank pres-
surizingair andthewater.Maybelocatedat any
point in the system, but most often found near the
boiler.
• Systemswiththistypeofexpansiontankrequire
at least one
automatic air vent, preferably lo-
cated on top of an air eliminator, as shown in
examplesinmanualSection3.
2. If relief valve has tended to weep frequently, the ex-
pansion tank may be waterlogged or undersized.
Closed-type tank tank is most likely water-
logged. Install a tank fitting if not already installed.
Then check fill level per fitting manufacturer’s
instructions. If fill level is correct, check tank size
against manufacturer’s instructions. Replace with
a larger tank if necessary.
Diaphragm- or bladder-type first, check tank
size to be sure it is large enough for the system. If
size is too small, add additional tank(s) as neces-
sary to provide sufficient expansion. If tank size is
large enough, remove tank from system and check
charge pressure (usually 12 psig for residential ap-
plications). If tank wont hold pressure, membrane
has been damaged. Replace tank.
