Boiler Room Shutdown Procedure Under 72 Hours

This SOP outlines a safe, step-by-step boiler room shutdown procedure for outages under 72 hours. It aims to prevent thermal shock to boilers and heat exchangers and maintain stable water chemistry while placing the plant in standby. Key actions include lowering the south boiler setpoint to 150 F, setting hot water pump VFDs to 30 HZ, ensuring the north boiler is off, confirming cold water pumps are running, and verifying chiller and fin fan breakers are on. It also calls for a room inspection to identify leaks or trip hazards and secure the area by turning off lights. Designed for operators and non-maintenance personnel, it provides a clear checklist and sign-off for controlled shutdown and restart readiness.
