If you are the owner of a Burnham Series 2 gas boiler, you may have encountered some problems with it. Fortunately, troubleshooting your boiler is relatively easy and can be done in a few simple steps. In this article, we will discuss the common problems associated with the Burnham Series 2 gas boiler and provide some tips on how to resolve them.

The first thing you should do when troubleshooting your Burnham Series 2 gas boiler is to check the power supply. Make sure that the power switch is in the "on" position and that the power cord is securely plugged in. If the power is not on, check the circuit breaker and make sure it is not tripped. If it is, reset it and try again.

Next, check the gas supply. Make sure the gas valve is in the "open" position and that the gas line is connected properly. If the gas is not on, contact your local gas company to check for any gas leaks or other issues.

Once you have verified that the power and gas supplies are working properly, you can begin to troubleshoot the boiler itself. The first thing to check is the thermostat. Make sure the thermostat is set to the correct temperature and that the temperature setting is correct. If the thermostat is not working properly, you may need to replace it.

If the thermostat is working properly, then you should check the pilot light. The pilot light should be lit and the flame should be blue. If the pilot light is not lit, you should check the gas supply again and make sure that the gas valve is in the "open" position. If the pilot light is lit but the flame is not blue, you may need to adjust the air shutter.

Next, check the boiler pressure. The pressure should be between 12 and 15 psi. If the pressure is too low, you may need to adjust the pressure relief valve. If the pressure is too high, you may need to adjust the pressure regulator.

Finally, check for any signs of water leakage. If you see any water leaking from the boiler, you should immediately shut off the power and gas supply and contact a qualified technician to repair the boiler.

By following these simple steps, you should be able to troubleshoot your Burnham Series 2 gas boiler and resolve any issues you may be having. If you are still having problems with your boiler, it is recommended that you contact a qualified technician to inspect and repair it.
