GSW WATER HEATING AND ITS SUPPLIERS, (herein collectively referred to as “Manufacturer”) warrants only to the
original consumer purchaser (hereinafter “Owner”) of the water heater, within the boundaries of the continental United
States or Canada, or their territories, so long as he or she continuously occupies the single family dwelling in which this

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. Consumers must retain point-of-sale proof of purchase to validate warranty entitlement.
B. WHEN IT IS COVERED.
The water heater is warranted only when it is installed, operated, and maintained in accordance with the printed instruc-
tions accompanying the water heater. The water heater shall/must be installed in such a manner that, if the tank or any
connection thereto should leak, the resulting À ow of water will not cause damage to the area in which it is installed. The
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.
1.
The Inner Tank. If the inner tank leaks within the warranty period shown in the table above after the original installa-
tion, the Manufacturer will furnish a new water heater of the Manufacturer’s then prevailing comparable model. If in-
dustry standards, regulatory changes, product improvements, or product obsolescence prohibits the 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
the Manufacturer has incorporated in the replacement water heater. A prior authorization number must be obtained
from the Manufacturer before replacing the water heater. This Warranty is limited to one replacement water heater at
the original installation site.
2. Component Part. If any component, part other than the inner tank, proves to the Manufacturer’s satisfaction to be
defective in material or workmanship within the warranty period shown in the table above after the original installation,
the Manufacturer will furnish the Owner with a replacement for the defective part(s). This Warranty is limited to one
replacement component part for each original part.
3. Return of Defective Water Heater and Component Parts. The Manufacturer reserves the right to examine the al-
leged defect in the water heater or component part(s). As such, it will be the Owner’s obligation (see paragraph D. 3) 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 rating plate label.
b. When returning component part(s), they must be individually tagged and identi¿ ed with the water heater’s Model
