: How can I fire my gas boiler without electricity? It has spark ignition and flue damper.You cant..If you have spark ignition you also have a 24 volt operating system that controls the flue damper, the pilot valve and main gas valve, not to mention the all-important flame-sensing circut, high temperature limit switch and low water cut-off. Sorry, the electric company is good for some things. pipewerks

NO responsibility can or will be taken. And yes, I am a licensed plumber with my own business in Brisbane Australia

My Thermal Boiler gives very high flue gas temperature; 450 C, what has gone wrong in this case?
