NOTICE
Manual along with the SYNC Service
Manual are for use only by a qualified
heating installer/service technician.
Refer only to this User’s Information
Manual for your reference. Improper
installation, adjustment, alteration,
service or maintenance can cause
property damage, personal injury
(exposure to hazardous materials) or
loss of life. Installation and service must
be performed by a qualified installer,
service agency or the gas supplier (who
must read and follow the supplied
instruction before installing, servicing,
or removing this boiler. This boiler
contains materials that have been
identified as carcinogenic, or possibly
carcinogenic, to humans).
• To avoid electric shock, disconnect electrical supply
before performing maintenance.
• To avoid severe burns, allow boiler to cool before
performing maintenance.
Boiler operation –
• Do not block flow of combustion or ventilation air to
the boiler. This boiler is equipped with a control which
will automatically shut down the boiler should air or
vent be blocked. If vent or air blockage is easily
accessible and removable, remove it. The boiler should
attempt to restart. If blockage is not obvious or cannot
be removed, have the boiler and system checked by a
qualified service technician.
• Should overheating occur or gas supply fail to shut off,
do not turn off or disconnect electrical supply to the
circulator. Instead, shut off the gas supply at a location
external to the appliance.
When calling or writing about the boiler
– Please have the boiler model and serial
number from the boiler rating plate.
NOTICE
• Do not use this boiler if any part has been under water.
The possible damage to a flooded appliance can be
extensive and present numerous safety hazards. Any
appliance that has been under water must be replaced.
Consider piping and installation when
determining boiler location.
Any claims for damage or shortage in
shipment must be filed immediately
against the transportation company by
the consignee.
Boiler water –
•
Thoroughly flush the system (without boiler
connected) to remove sediment. The high-efficiency
heat exchanger can be damaged by build-up or
corrosion due to sediment.
Factory warranty (shipped with unit)
does not apply to units improperly
installed or improperly operated.
• Do not use petroleum-based cleaning or sealing
compounds in the boiler system. Gaskets and seals in
the system may be damaged. This can result in
substantial property damage.
Failure to adhere to the guidelines on
this page can result in severe personal
injury, death, or substantial property
damage.
ƽ WARNING
• Do not use “homemade cures” or “boiler patent
medicines”. Serious damage to the boiler, personnel,
and/or property may result.
• Continual fresh make-up water will reduce boiler life.
Mineral buildup in the heat exchanger reduces heat
transfer, overheats the stainless steel heat exchanger,
and causes failure. Addition of oxygen carried in by
makeup water can cause internal corrosion. Leaks in
boiler or piping must be repaired at once to prevent
makeup water.
Freeze protection fluids –
• NEVER use automotive antifreeze. Use only inhibited
propylene glycol solutions, which are specifically
formulated for hydronic systems. Ethylene glycol is
toxic and can attack gaskets and seals used in hydronic
systems.

annually at the beginning of the heating
season by a qualified service technician. In
addition, the maintenance and care of the
boiler designated on page 5 of this manual
and explained on pages 6 through 8 must
be performed to assure maximum boiler
efficiency and reliability. Failure to service
and maintain the boiler and system could
result in equipment failure, causing
possible severe personal injury, death, or

Check pressure/temperature gauge
1. Make sure the pressure reading on the boiler pressure/
temperature gauge does not exceed 24 psi (165.5 kPa).
Higher pressure may indicate a problem with the
expansion tank.
2. Contact a qualified service technician if problem persists.
Check vent piping
