Gasifying boilers VIGAS
chamber, must be removed from time to time. Thus you will increase the space of fuel bunker
to original size and you will release the flow of primary air into gasification chamber. Check
the continuity of openings for the intake of primary air on regular basis. If the openings are
clogged, release them.
Combustion chamber cleaning
Sweep ash and dust that fell to combustion chamber with a scraper. It is sufficient to sweep
ash dust that settles in combustion chamber once per 3-5 days.
Exchanger cleaning
It is necessary to clean exchanger pipes once per month with a “cleaning plate”.
Put cap away, (15) picture 3, and thus you will have an access to exchanger
pipes.
Recommendation: If you do not clean the exchanger on time and it is too dirty,
do not use any dissolvent for tar. Boiler must be clean while it is hot. Heat boiler through open
chimney flap and upper door approx. at 80
0
C ( without fan). Then close flap and door.
Carefully (use gloves) open exchanger cap. Clean dirty exchanger with relevant accessories.
After cleaning, close exchanger cap and let boiler burn / gasification/ approx 5 hours as
maximum output in order the rest of tar might burn.
Warning: Boiler room must be properly ventilated during burning.
Air piping cleaning
The clearness of boiler piping system is a necessary condition for right burning. If you mainly
use sawdust, it is necessary to clean the piping system once per heating season. After putting
fan cover (8) picture 3 and sheet cover of piping away, you will get access to two pipes. Use
vacuum cleaner to remove sawdust and check continuity.
