Apparatus and method for flushing boiler low-water cutoff systems

A method of making a low-fluid level cutoff system flushing unit for a boiler comprising:

• a. combining a first conduit and a second conduit wherein said first conduit and said second conduit intersect;
• b. adapting said first conduit to have at least a low-fluid level aperture for communicating with a first fluid in a low-fluid level cutoff system of said boiler;
• and
• c. adapting one end of said second conduit to have a fluid inlet aperture for receiving a second fluid from a fluid source and adapting an opposite end of said second conduit to have a fluid outlet aperture for discharging said first fluid and said second fluid into said boiler.

A method of using a low-fluid level cutoff system flushing unit comprising:

• a. mounting a low-fluid level cutoff system flushing unit to a low-fluid level cutoff system of a boiler, said flushing unit having a first conduit with at least a low-fluid level cutoff system aperture for communicating with a first fluid in said low-fluid level cutoff system and a second conduit intersecting said first conduit, said second conduit having a fluid inlet aperture for communicating with a second fluid from a fluid source and a fluid outlet aperture for communicating with a boiler fluid reservoir, said fluid reservoir being in fluid communication with said low-fluid level cutoff system;
• b. attaching said fluid source to said fluid inlet aperture of said second conduit;
• c. attaching said fluid outlet aperture of said second conduit to said fluid reservoir;
• d. sensing when a fluid level in said fluid reservoir falls below a certain predetermined level;
• e. activating said fluid source to release said second fluid;
• f. introducing said second fluid into said flushing unit so that said second fluid draws said first fluid from said low-fluid level cutoff system;
• g. discharging said first fluid and said second fluid through said fluid outlet aperture into said fluid reservoir;
• h. sensing when said fluid level in said fluid reservoir exceeds a certain predetermined level;
• and
• l. deactivating said fluid source.
