How Safe Is Your Furnace Ignition Process?

Most operators follow safety procedures when given the proper tools. But when the proper tools are not supplied, the results can be unsafe. Here are some examples:

• Using a mop handle wrapped with packing material, soaked in distillate to ignite a
  burner.
  
  
• Stuffing a piece of pipe with toilet tissue, soaking the tissue with lighter fluid, placing it in the bottom of the furnace to "let the draft of the furnace carry its flame up to the unlit burner".
  
  
• Flooding the unit with gas to ignite an unlit burner from a lit adjacent burner.
  
  

RISK: Using an open flame in the ignition process is hazardous

• A flame must be lit before it is positioned in the furnace, increasing the danger to the operator and surrounding area.
  
  
• A flame is affected by draft, again increasing the danger and extending down time.

SOLUTION: The portable electric arc of the FireBolt 5000

• The portable electric arc is engaged after it is in position and only for the instant that is required to light the burner.
  
  
• The portble electric arc is not affected by draft, making it safer and more efficient.

Can you afford the risk of accidents and litigation?

Use a FireBolt 5000 and avoid the risks of using an open flame.
