Boiler Sight Glass / Inspection Window Replacement in Greater Vancouver
Lets technicians view the flame and combustion. Supplied and professionally installed by licensed gas fitters — never sold for DIY.
What the Sight Glass / Inspection Window Does
The sight glass is an inspection window that lets a technician view the burner flame to confirm clean combustion. A sooted or cracked sight glass hides combustion problems and can leak flue gas if its seal fails.
A heat-resistant window in the combustion chamber gives a direct view of flame colour and shape, an important check during commissioning and service.
We supply and fit the sight glass / inspection window as part of a complete boiler repair or new installation, and inspect it during annual maintenance for homes across Greater Vancouver.
