    Weil-mclean boiler shutting down on safety
    I have a Weil-McLean boiler that vents trough the wall and has no pilot light. When I turn it on it goes through the purge stage then turns on the glow plug ignighter which comes on the starts the main gas flow which ignights but then it shuts down within 10 seconds. What is wrong with this boiler. It seem as though this is a safety shutting this down what need to be done. Thanks

    This sounds like a high efficiency condensing boiler. Before it gets messed up more than it is please contact a Weil-McLean dealer for repair. There could be a imbalance having to do with burner adjustments and you will need special tools to correct this adjustment problem.
