THIS WARRANTY IS APPLICABLE TO THE ORIGINAL OWNER
ONLY. In accordance with the warranty terms and conditions

When the water heater has been used for other than single

sized drain pan if installed in an area where leakage from the
tank or its connections would result in damage to the area
adjacent to the heater. In addition, a new temperature and
