Common failures & inspection points

Thermal fluid oxidation and degradation

Periodic fluid analysis including acid number testing, viscosity measurements, and flash point verification to detect oxidation and tar/sludge formation

Thermal fluid leaks and seal integrity

Daily and weekly visual inspection of leak points at valves, flanges, welds, instrument ports, threaded fittings, and pump seals; immediate replacement of failed seals; ensure drip pans are kept free of liquid

Burner combustion efficiency and emissions

Annual inspection of burner state, combustion efficiency, smoke composition analysis, and smoke temperature measurement to verify proper operation and compliance

System pressure and temperature monitoring

Verification of working temperatures and pressures, confirmation that low-flow shutdown systems and alarms function properly, expansion tank remains cool (below 40°C) and sealed

Equipment component performance and corrosion

Assessment of electrical recirculation pump groups, manual and automatic valves, thermal insulation integrity, and overall system behavior; check for signs of smoke/odor indicating thermal fluid seepage into insulation
