Installation & Operation Manual
6 Gas connections
Use two wrenches when tightening gas
piping at boiler (FIG. 6-2), using one
wrench to prevent the boiler gas line
connection from turning. Failure to
support the boiler gas connection pipe
to prevent it from turning could damage
gas line components.
USE BACK UP WRENCH TO
PREVENT PIPE FROM ROTATING

Natural gas supply pressure requirements
1. Pressure required at the gas valve inlet pressure port:
• Maximum 14 inches w.c. (3.5 kPa) with no flow
(lockup) or with boiler on.
• Minimum 5 inches w.c. (1.25 kPa) for 1.0 models with gas
flowing (verify during boiler startup).
• Minimum 4 inches w.c. (.99 kPa) for 1.3 - 1.5 models with
gas flowing (verify during boiler startup).
2. Install 100% lockup gas pressure regulator in supply line if
inlet pressure can exceed 14 inches w.c. (3.5 kPa) at any
time. Adjust lockup regulator for 14 inches w.c. (3.5 kPa)
maximum.
Propane Gas:
Pipe sizing for propane gas
1. Contact gas supplier to size pipes, tanks, and 100% lockup
gas pressure regulator.
Propane Supply Pressure Requirements
1. Adjust propane supply regulator provided by the gas
supplier for 14 inches w.c. (3.5 kPa) maximum pressure.
2. Pressure required at gas valve inlet pressure port:
• Maximum 14 inches w.c. (3.5 kPa)with no flow (lockup)
or with boiler on.
• Minimum 8 inches w.c. (1.9 kPa) with gas flowing (verify
during boiler startup).
Maximum inlet gas pressure must not
exceed the value specified. Minimum
value listed is for the purposes of input
adjustment.

NOTICE
ƽ WARNING
Ensure that the high gas pressure regulator
is at least 10 feet (3 m) upstream of the
appliance.
Check boiler rating plate to determine
which fuel the boiler is set for. SYNC boilers
CAN NOT be field converted. Failure to
comply could result in severe personal
injury, death, or substantial property
damage.

Natural gas:
Pipe sizing for natural gas
1. Refer to Table 6A for pipe length and diameter. Based on
rated boiler input (divide by 1,000 to obtain cubic feet per
hour).
a. Table 6A is only for natural gas with specific gravity
0.60 inches, with a pressure drop through the gas
piping of 0.5 inches w.c.
b. For additional gas pipe sizing information, refer to
ANSI Z223.1 (or B149.1 or B149.2 for Canadian
installations).
