LIMITED WARRANTY
RESIDENTIAL TYPE WATER HEATER FOR INSTALLATION IN A SINGLE FAMILY DWELLING
A. WHO IS COVERED
GSW WATER HEATING, (herein collectively referred to as “Manufacturer”)
warrants only to the original consumer purchaser
(hereinafter “Owner”) of the water heater so long as he or she continuously
occupies the single family dwelling in which this water
heater is initially installed for the period speci昀椀ed below. This warranty is
not transferable. The warranty is restricted to the water
heater used in a single-family residence in Canada. This warranty is reduced
to one year if the water heater is used in a commercial
or industrial application, or if the water heater is used to supply more than
one dwelling unit.
B. WHEN IT IS COVERED
The water heater is warranted only when it is installed, operated and
maintained in accordance with the printed instructions
accompanying the water heater. A water heater should be installed in such a
manner that, if the tank or any connection thereto
should leak, the resulting 昀氀ow of water will not cause damage to the area in
which it is installed. A water heater’s temperature and
pressure relief valve must be piped to the nearest drain to avoid damage in
the event the valve is actuated. For detailed instructions
read the manual accompanying the water heater and review drawings in the
manual.
C. WHAT THE MANUFACTURER WILL DO AND THE PERIOD OF COVERAGE
- The Inner Tank – If the inner tank leaks within the warranty period listed in the table after the original installation, Manufacturer will furnish a new water heater of Manufacturer’s then prevailing comparable model. If industry standards, product improvements or product obsolescence prohibits Manufacturer from furnishing an identical model replacement water heater under this warranty, the Owner will be furnished with a new water heater of comparable capacity; however, the Owner will be charged for the additional value of the item(s) which Manufacturer has incorporated in the replacement water heater. A prior authorization number must be obtained from the Manufacturer before replacing the water heater.
- Component Part – If any component part other than the inner tank proves to Manufacturer’s satisfaction to be defective in material or workmanship within the warranty period listed in the table after the original installation, the Manufacturer will furnish the Owner with a replacement for the defective part(s).
- Return of Defective Water Heater and Component Parts – Manufacturer reserves the right to examine the alleged defect in the water heater or component part(s), and it will be the Owner’s obligation (See paragraph D.5) to return the water heater and/ or component part(s) to the Manufacturer.
a. When returning a water heater it must include all component parts and the data plate label.
b. When returning component part(s), they must be individually tagged and identi昀椀ed with the water heater’s product number, model number, serial number, date of purchase and date of installation.
Any replacement product will carry the remainder of the original warranty.
