Common breakthroughs in heating packages
Heating packages are one of the most important equipments for heating houses and hot water. These devices, due to continuous use, may encounter failures that impair their performance. In this article, common package failures, their reasons and possible solutions are discussed.
1. Pressure drop in the package
• Symptoms: Decrease or fluctuation of water pressure in the system.
• Possible reasons:
• Leakage in pipes or radiators.
• Failure Safety valve.
• Air intake of the heating circuit.
2. Not lighting the package
• Symptoms: The burner does not turn on or the device does not work at all.
• Possible reasons:
• Gas or electricity cut off.
• Igniter or thermocouple failure.
• There is a problem in the electronic board.
1. Creating abnormal sounds
• Symptoms: Production of clicking, whistling or howling sound when the package is operating.
• Possible reasons:
• The presence of deposits in the heat exchanger.
• Pump failure or Its blades.
• Air intake system.
1. Insufficient heating of water or radiators
• Symptoms: Decrease in hot water temperature or lack of optimal heating of radiators.
• Possible reasons:
• Clogging of heat exchanger.
• Failure of the temperature sensor or thermostat.
• Low pressure of the inlet gas.
1. Sudden shutdown of the package
• Symptoms: Automatic stoppage of the device.
• Possible reasons:
• Obstruction of the chimney path.
• Failure of safety sensors.
• Overheating of the device.
Conclusion
Package failures are usually caused by simple reasons such as sediment, pressure fluctuations or electrical problems. Many of these problems can be avoided by performing regular services and following the principles of use.
