In order to assure prompt warranty service, the owner is

with this request will not void the owner's rights under these
warranties.
Upon discovery of a condition believed to be related to a defect in
material or workmanship covered by these warranties, the owner
should notify the installer, who will in turn notify the distributor. If
this action is not possible or does not produce a prompt response,
the owner should write to U.S. Boiler Co., Inc., Burnham Hydronics,
at P.O. Box 3079, Lancaster, PA 17604, giving full particulars in
support of the claim.
The owner is required to make available for inspection by U.S.
Boiler Co., Inc. or its representative the parts claimed to be
defective and, if requested by U.S. Boiler Co., Inc. to ship these
parts prepaid to U.S. Boiler Co., Inc. at the above address for
inspection or repair. In addition, the owner agrees to make all
reasonable efforts to settle any disagreement arising in connection
with a claim before resorting to legal remedies in the courts.
THIS WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS AND
YOU MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS WHICH VARY FROM
STATE TO STATE.
