Question - mend, repair, fix

excessive smoke from flue?

I have just installed a new pump on my 8year old Grant Eoroflame boiler (50-70) and now the chimney/flue is emmiting large amounts of black smoke. No amount of adjusting seems to cure the problem. Help please.

Answers - mend, repair, fix

You need to set the pump pressure to the manufacturers recommendation....this can only be done using a pressure gauge as the requirement could be anything from 110 psi up to 150 psi. After that, ideally a smoke test followed by a flue gas analysis is necessary.
