  1. First of all we must make sure that all necessary line is blinded. Always consult the boiler man where and how much is the blinding point.
  2. After that, open the manway, do not forget to use the blower to ventilate the boiler.
  3. Then, it is the time to dismantle all the 13 essential fittings that required to be service. All this fitting need to be clean and change their gasket.
  4. Next is to open the boiler door. This is where we will be able to see the boiler's tube. These tubes must be clean by power brush. The objective of cleaning the tube is to check whether there is crack on the weld seam. Besides that, we can observe the straightness of the tube when we look through the tube. If we see full moon that's mean the tube is straight but if not we know that the tube is bending.
  5. Furthermore is to clean the fire side or chamber. Next is the water side. Please make sure the confined space entry procedures is followed strictly to avoid any accident.
