ALL PARTS ARE WARRANTED FOR 6 YEARS.
**Any water heater used for other than a single family housing
unit will be covered for three years on tank and one year on parts
regardless of any other warranty period specified. All
replacement water heaters and parts carry the balance of the
original warranty, i.e. if an original ten (10) year warranted water
heater develops a leak due to defects in materials/workmanship
after nine (9) years, the replacement unit is warranted for the
balance remaining on the original ten (10) year warranty, or one
(1) year in this example.
WHAT IS THE PERIOD OF COVERAGE?
This limited warranty is effective 60 days from the date of
manufacture as determined by the serial number. To
determine length of coverage, check model number against
the following chart. Model number and serial number are
found on the rating plate affixed to the water heater.
