I have a Weil Mclain Gold oil steam boiler installed approx. 1998 where do I add the product steam clean to the boiler? Please let me know how I get the product into the boiler as I do not have any open ports to pour the product in. TIA

The pressure relief valve port is a common place. If you send pictures there might be others we can point out.

If you describe any symptoms your system may have which you are trying to alleviate, we may offer some advice.

I like to use TSP to boil out and skim the boiler. After it's flushed and cleaned check the boiler water PH to see if anything needs to be added.
Tsp is 1 lb/ every 50 gallons of boiler water0
