Boiler Cleaning Service

Boiler Cleaning Service is a boiler cleaning service that aims to maintain the efficiency and safety of the heating system or steam generator. A dirty boiler can lead to decreased energy efficiency, higher fuel consumption, and even serious damage if scale or deposits are allowed to accumulate.

Here is a more detailed explanation:

Purpose of Boiler Cleaning

1. Improve heat efficiency - scale or deposits in the boiler pipes inhibit heat transfer, resulting in more wasted fuel.

2. Prevent corrosion and deterioration - chemical deposits can cause corrosion of metals.

3. Maintain operational safety - boilers that are not cleaned are at risk of overheat and explosion.

4. Extends boiler life - regular maintenance extends the service life of the equipment.

Types of Boiler Cleaning

1. Chemical Cleaning
   Using chemicals such as organic/inorganic acids to dissolve scale and rust in the boiler pipes. Usually done when the boiler is offline.

2. Mechanical Cleaning
   Using mechanical tools such as wire brushes, drills, or high pressure water jets to scrape off scale or dirt from the surface of the pipes and boiler walls.

3. Soot Blowing
   Used for boilers that use solid fuels (such as coal). High pressure air or steam is used to blow soot off the hot tube surfaces.

Cleaning Frequency

• Depends on the type of boiler and fuel used.
  Typically:

  • 1-2 times a year for industrial boilers.

  • More often if the feed water or fuel is of low quality.

Long Term Benefits

• Saves on fuel costs.

• Reduces downtime.

• Maintains optimal performance of the heating/generation system.

• Ensures stable production or heating output.
