  If your Riverside Hydronics Boiler experiences flame failure, start by checking the fuse and circuit breaker, and ensure the voltage at the 120/24V step-down transformer is correct. Inspect the flame safeguard control for any grounding issues or defects, and replace if necessary. Also, verify that all safety limits are functioning correctly and address any fault conditions. Check the grounding from the flame control to the burner housing.

  If your Riverside Hydronics Boiler fails to start or pre-purge, check the fuse and circuit breaker, and ensure the voltage at the 120/24V step-down transformer is correct. Verify that the on-off switch is lit and the operating temperature control is set higher than the boiler temperature. Inspect the flame safeguard control for bad ground or defects, replacing it if needed. Confirm the boiler is enabled or place a jumper between terminals R1-R2, and check that the fan connection terminals on the flame control are closed. Also, check the connections to all components.

  If your Riverside Hydronics Boiler is experiencing flame failure, there are several potential causes: * **Hot Surface Igniter:** Check the amp draw during heat-up. Replace if amps are greater than 3.1A. Also, look for signs of overheating due to damaged refractory around the igniter. * **Air-Proving Switch:** Check if the switch is bouncing; if so, adjust or replace it. * **Gas Pressure:** Verify proper inlet static and dynamic gas pressure. * **Combustion:** Inadequate flame signal may result from improper combustion. Adjust to proper CO2 levels at low fire.
