LIMITED WARRANTY
Aquastar
General
Aquastar water heaters are warranted by the Manufacturer
(BOSCH) through BBT North America. BBT North America
(BBTNA) will furnish a replacement heat exchanger and will
furnish a replacement of any other part which fails in normal
use and service within the applicable periods specified
below, in accordance with the terms of this warranty. The
BBTNA replacement will be warranted for the unexpired
portion of the original warranty. This warranty will be valid
only for water heaters in possession of the original purchaser
as recorded on the warranty card.
The heat exchanger
If the heat exchanger fails within twelve (12) years after the
original installation and operation BBTNA will furnish a
replacement heat exchanger. However, if the water heater
is installed in other than a single family dwelling this heat
exchanger warranty is limited to two (2) years from date of
original installation and operation.
Exceptions
This warranty will not apply:
1. to defects or malfunctions resulting from failure to properly
install, operate or maintain the unit in accordance with
the printed instructions provided;
2. to damage or abuse, accident, neglect or freezing and
other acts of nature;
3. to damage resulting from operation with either the flame
sensor rod or overheat sensor removed;
4. to failure of the heat exchanger resulting from the
operation of the water heater in a corrosive atmosphere
or at water temperatures exceeding the maximum rating,
or if the water heater is not supplied with potable water;
5. to defects or damage cause by any attachment
or modification, including any energy-saving device.
All other parts
If any other part fails within two (2) years after original
installation and operation, BBTNA will furnish a replacement
part free of charge.

will provide ground service delivery for these parts. Expedited
or upgraded shipping will be charged to the customer.
Service labor costs
This warranty does not cover any labor costs associated
with service, removal or re-installation of part(s). All such
costs must be borne by the Purchaser. Additionally, this
warranty does not cover any labor costs associated with
service, removal or re-installation of the original water heater
or a replaced water heater.
NOTE : the water heater must be free of damaging scale
deposits and not subject to gas pressures greater than those

must be made available in exchange for the replacement.
Miscellaneous
No one is authorized to make any other warranties on behalf
of BBTNA. It is expressly understood that the replacement
warranty of BBTNA shall be in lieu of any and all other
warranties, express or implied, including warranties of
merchantability or fitness for a particular use or purpose,
and further that BBTNA shall not be liable for any loss or
damage directly or indirectly arising from the use of the hot
water heater, or for any consequential damages arising from
such use (including damages from water leakage). BBTNA
sole liability with respect to any defect shall be for the

allow such limitations and exclusions, so the above may not
apply to you.
