: When switching a Foster Wheeler watertube boiler from oil to gas, the main flame came on and blew the boiler into what looked like a pretzle . Luckily I was okay except that I lost a chunk of hair and have a hard time concentrating in the outside world. Nobuddy ever told me why this happened so Iam not sure if I should try this again. Help

Bob,
I am surprised that there was no official follow up after your accident to find the cause and make sure it could not happen again. Had this occurred in the UK I reckon that the Health and Safety Inspectorate would have been called in.
