THIS WARRANTY IS APPLICABLE TO THE ORIGINAL OWNER
ONLY. If the glass lined tank in this water heater shall prove upon
examination by State Water Heaters (the warrantor) to have leaked
during the warranty period in normal residential use, due to
natural corrosion from potable water therein, the warrantor will
furnish the ORIGINAL OWNER a replacement State water heater
of equivalent size and current model, or a replacement part for
any component part which fails in normal use, in accordance
with the warranty terms and conditions specified below. THE
STATE WATER HEATER REPLACEMENT MODEL OR PART WILL
BE WARRANTED FOR ONLY THE UNEXPIRED PORTION OF
THE ORIGINAL WARRANTY. The warranty period will be
determined by the original installation date of the water heater.
PROOF-OF-PURCHASE AND PROOF-OF-INSTALLATION ARE

plumbing codes, ordinances and regulations; 2) the printed
instructions provided with it; 3) good industry practices; and 4)
proper safety practices such as but not limited to a properly
sized drain pan if installed in an area where leakage from
connections of the tank would result in damage to the area
adjacent to the heater. In addition, a new temperature and
pressure relief valve, certified by the Canadian Standards
Association must have been properly installed and piped to the
nearest drain.
This warranty shall apply only when the heater is:
• owned by the original purchaser;
• used at temperatures not exceeding the maximum calibrated
setting of its thermostat;
• not subjected to excessive water pressure fluctuations and
not subject to an operating pressure greater than 150 P.S.I.;
• filled with potable water, free to circulate at all times and with
the tank free of damaging water sediment or scale deposits;

• in the United States and its territories or possessions;
• sized in accordance with proper sizing techniques for
residential water heaters;
• bearing a rating plate which has not been altered, defaced or
removed except as required by the warrantor;
• used in an open system or in a closed system with a properly
sized and installed thermal expansion tank;
• fired at the factory rated input using the fuel stated in the face
of the rating plate;
• operated with the inner and outer combustion chamber doors

Any accident to the water heater or any part thereof (including
freezing, fire, floods, or lightning), any misuse, abuse or alteration
of it, any operation of it in a modified form, or any attempt to
repair tank leaks or parts, will void this warranty.
SERVICE AND LABOR RESPONSIBILITY

PROVIDE ONLY A REPLACEMENT WATER HEATER OR PART
THEREOF. THE OWNER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL OTHER
COSTS. Such costs may include but are not limited to:
LIMITED RESIDENTIAL GAS WARRANTY
a. Labor charges for service, removal, or reinstallation of the
water heater or part thereof.
b. Shipping and delivery charges for forwarding the new water
heater or replacement part from the nearest distributor and
returning the claimed defective heater or part to such distributor
except in the state of California where such charges are the
manufacturer’s responsibility.
c. All cost necessary or incidental for handling and
administrative charges, and for any materials and/or permits
required for installation of the replacement heater or part.
LIMITATION ON IMPLIED WARRANTIES
Implied warranties, including any warranty of merchantability
imposed on the sale of this heater under state law are limited to
one year duration for the heater or any of its parts. Some states
do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts,
so the above limitations may not apply to you.
CLAIM PROCEDURE
Any claim under this warranty should be initiated with the dealer
who sold the heater, or with any other dealer handling the
warrantor’s products. If this is not practical, the owner should
contact: State Water Heaters, 500 Lindahl Parkway, Ashland City,
TN 37015.
The warrantor will only honor replacement with identical or
similar water heater or parts thereof which are manufactured or
distributed by the warrantor.
Dealer replacements are made subject to in-warranty validation
by warrantor.
PROOF-OF-PURCHASE AND PROOF-OF-INSTALLATION
DATES ARE REQUIRED TO SUPPORT WARRANTY FOR
CLAIM FROM ORIGINAL OWNER. THIS FORM DOES NOT
CONSTITUTE PROOF-OF-PURCHASE OR PROOF-OF-
INSTALLATION.
DISCLAIMERS
NO EXPRESS WARRANTY HAS BEEN OR WILL BE MADE IN
BEHALF OF THE WARRANTOR WITH RESPECT TO THE
MERCHANTABILITY OF THE HEATER OR THE INSTALLATION,
OPERATION, REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF THE HEATER OR
PARTS. THE WARRANTOR SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE
FOR WATER DAMAGE, LOSS OF USE OF THE UNIT,
INCONVENIENCE, LOSS OR DAMAGE TO PERSONAL
PROPERTY, OR OTHER CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGE. THE
WARRANTOR SHALL NOT BE LIABLE BY VIRTUE OF THIS
WARRANTY OR OTHERWISE FOR DAMAGE TO ANY PERSONS
OR PROPERTY, WHETHER DIRECT OR INDIRECT, AND
WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT OR IN TORT.
Some states do not allow the limitation or exclusion of incidental
or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion
may not apply to you.
This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also
have other rights which vary from state to state.
