About Your Warranty
Some warranties say that you must drain the tank once a
month. •Yourtank will last longer if you do this. Your Sears
warranty is good whether you drain the tank often or not.
We include a drain valve because:
1. Many plumbing codes require a drain valve.
2. "Your water heater will continue to heat efficiently, if a
small amount of water is drained each month. THE
PRICE OF YOUR WATER HEATER DOES NOT
INCLUDE A FREE CHECKUP SERVICE CALL. ON
WATER HEATER INSTALLATIONS ARRANGED BY
SEARS, Sears warrants the installation.
ON INSTALLATIONS NOT MADE BY SEARS AUTHO-
RIZED CONTRACTORS:
1. Your Searswarranty applies to the product only.
2. Searsdoes not warrant the installation.
3. A charge will be made on service calls due to poor or
incomplete installation. These include:
a. Adjusting thermostat.
