The aquastat controller on your outdoor boiler serves some very important purposes. Mostly, it controls the blower fan and draft, opening and closing the draft to keep the outdoor boiler water in a desired temp range.
If it weren't for your aquastat, your boiler would require constant attention so that your fire does not burn too hot (and boil out your water) or too cold. (and you freeze!).
The aquastat is a cool little component in an outdoor boiler that allows us all to enjoy life without worrying about our heat, except once or twice per day when we need to add wood. Not only do we get to save lots of money on our heating bills, but we also get to have a life in the meantime! After all, we need lots of time to enjoy spending all that money we are saving on our heating bills!
FAQS
×The aquastat in a boiler is a critical component that controls the blower fan and the draft within the system. Its main function is to maintain the water temperature in the boiler by opening or closing the draft as needed. When the water reaches a predetermined high limit (often set at 180 degrees Fahrenheit), the aquastat cuts power to the blower fan to prevent overheating.
No, a boiler cannot effectively run without an aquastat. The aquastat is essential in controlling the temperature of the boiler water by managing the blower fan and draft. Without it, you would need to manually monitor and manage the heating process constantly, which could lead to overheating or freezing.
If the water temperature fluctuates significantly or fails to reach the desired set point and if the blower fan does not turn on or off as expected when the water temperature reaches the high limit.
A thermostat gauges air temperature and activates heating or cooling based on that measurement. The aquastat controls the temperature of the water in the boiler by managing the blower fan and draft. It ensures the water temperature stays within a predetermined range, cutting off the fan when the water exceeds a specific high limit (commonly set at 180°F) and turning it back on as the temperature drops.
The aquastat is typically located on the boiler itself, often mounted near the water jacket. It helps monitor and control the water temperature within the system. If you are unsure of its exact location, consulting your boiler's manual can provide additional guidance.
