Boilers operate at high temperatures, often beyond their initial design parameters. As a result, the performance of the boiler is restricted due to issues on their waterwalls and superheater sections, including corrosion, cracking, erosion, and excessive fouling.

Boiler Tube Panel Replacement

Tubes, panels or even whole boiler sections may need replacing, which can be detrimental to the efficiency, safety, and productivity.

Without proactive intervention, these issues can lead to tube leaks and forced shutdowns, unexpected, prolonged downtime, and expensive maintenance.

To eliminate these problems, plant owners and operators partner with IGS to develop customized long-term maintenance strategies for their boilers.
