How to fix burner cut-off/ignition failure/flame failure in FULTON Boiler?
- D
  Donald McbrideNov 8, 2025
  If your FULTON Boiler experiences burner cut-off, ignition failure, or flame failure, several causes and solutions exist: * **Power Supply:** Check the fuse or circuit; reset or replace it if necessary. * **Gas Supply:** Ensure the main gas cock isn't closed. Check the coil in the gas valve with an OHM meter and replace if faulty. Verify the gas regulator setting and readjust if needed. Check inlet gas pressure, increasing or decreasing it as necessary. Look for gas pressure issues and intermittent supply problems. Natural gas pressure should be 4 to 11 inches wc at the head of the train. * **Ignition Electrodes:** Inspect the electrodes for carbon buildup and clean them if necessary. Check for proper adjustment and readjust if needed. Look for cracks in the porcelain; replace if fo...

How to troubleshoot poor combustion in FULTON Boiler?
- M
  Mrs. Madeline Schultz DDSNov 13, 2025
  To troubleshoot poor combustion in your FULTON Boiler, consider the following: * **Refractories:** Inspect the refractories for cracks or breaks and replace them if necessary. * **Not Enough Air/Build-Up on Fan Wheel (Rich; Burner Hums):** Check CO2/O2 levels. If the mixture is rich, disassemble the filter housing and gas train. Inspect the inlet to the fan for buildup on the fan blades, and clean the fan if necessary. Recheck the CO2/O2 levels and adjust the gas valve as needed for all combustion points. * **Fuel Valve Adjusted Too High (Rich; Burner Hums):** Check CO2/O2 levels and gas pressure at the outlet of the valve. If the pressure is too high, adjust the valve, ensuring all combustion points are checked. * **Too Much Air (Lean; Unstable Flame):** Check the fan discharge p...

What to do if FULTON Boiler will not maintain temperature?
- A
  Allison MichaelNov 18, 2025
  If your FULTON Boiler isn't maintaining temperature, consider these potential causes: * **Gas Supply:** Check the gas pressure coming into the gas train. If it's low, contact the gas company to maintain pressure (should be 7 to 11 inches wc for natural gas). Check the coil in the gas valve with an AMP meter and replace it if bad. Check the gas regulator setting and readjust as necessary. * **Dirty Flue:** Check the flue for carbon buildup or blockage. Clean the flue passages with a brush. * **Aquastat:** If power is on, check across the aquastats to verify power through the switch. If it's bad, replace it. * **Scale Built up in boiler:** No answer. * **Refractories:** Check the refractories to see if they are cracked or broken in pieces. Replace them as necessary. * **Boiler S...

Why is my FULTON ICW6 - 60 HP Boiler burner backfiring?

  If your FULTON Boiler burner is backfiring, consider these potential causes: * **Refractories:** Inspect the refractories to see if they are sooted or broken and clean or replace them as needed. * **Ignition Electrodes:** Check the electrodes for carbon buildup and clean as necessary. Ensure proper adjustment and readjust if needed. Check for cracks in the porcelain; replace if cracked. * **Primary Air Adjustment:** Check the air adjustment. Air may be blowing the fire away from the flame sensor. * **Oil Valve:** Check for a leaky oil valve and replace it if necessary. * **Draft:** Check the draft with a gauge. It should be -0.02 to -0.04 inches of water column with the burner off, or -0.04 to -0.06 when operating. You may need to install a barometric damper. * **Loss of Prime...

  If your FULTON Boiler experiences burner cut-off, ignition failure, or flame failure, consider the following potential causes: * **Power Supply:** Check the fuse or circuit breaker and replace it if necessary. * **Transformer:** Check the voltage between the transformer leads at the terminal block to ensure the terminal is being powered. * **Cad Cell:** Check for ignition interference. To verify the cad cell is working, place a lit candle in front of the photo cell at the proper time. * **Protectorelay:** Check the voltage between the pilot terminal and ignition terminal before the control locks out for safety. If there is zero voltage, clean the relay contacts and recheck the terminals for power. If there is still no power, replace the control. * **Oil Supply:** Check the oil l...
