WARRANTY
Factory warranty (shipped with unit) does not apply to
units improperly installed or improperly operated.
Experience has shown that improper installation or system
design, rather than faulty equipment, is the cause of most
operating problems.
1. Excessive water hardness causing a lime/scale build-up
in the heater and/or on the immersion heating elements
is not the fault of the equipment and is not covered
under the manufacturer's warranty. (See Water
Treatment and Water Chemistry)
2. Do not energize electrical system before the heater is
completely filled with water. Damage caused to the
immersion heating elements by dry fire is not covered
under the manufacturer's warranty. Follow start up
procedure in the manual.
3. Water heater corrosion and component failure caused
by air-borne chemical vapors is not covered under the
manufacturer's warranty.
4. Corrosion damage caused by current leakage due to
improper grounding of electrical systems or electronic
components to the storage tank and related piping is not
covered by the manufacturer's warranty.
5. Under no circumstance will the manufacturer be liable
for consequential damages resulting from the
installation or use of this equipment.
6. Correct installation procedure and local codes must be
adhered to.
