Weishaupt Burner Startup and Tuning

Max Weishaupt was founded in 1932 and is headquartered in Schwendi, Germany. Its U.S. subsidiary is Weishaupt America. Weishaupt makes gas, oil, and dual-fuel burners for commercial and industrial boilers.

Many of the larger Weishaupt models run on Weishaupt's own digital combustion manager instead of mechanical linkage. On those burners, the fuel-air settings live in the control, so a tune-up means setting the curve point by point in the control rather than adjusting cams and linkage arms.

What we check on every startup or tune-up: fuel pressures against the burner's specification, the safety switches and limits, ignition and the flame signal, and the fuel-air ratio at each firing rate, measured with a calibrated combustion analyzer. You get the O2, CO, and efficiency readings before and after, in writing.

Common reasons to call: lockouts or flame failures that keep coming back, hard starts, high CO or soot, a burner that hasn't been tuned in over a year, or a burner coming back online after repairs, a fuel change, or a control replacement.
