certificate gives the owner of a appliance supplied by A.O. Smith water Products

 

 

Company B.V. of Veldhoven, The Netherlands (hereinafter "A.O. Smith") the

 

 

right to the warranty set out below, defining the commitments of A.O. Smith to

 

 

the owner.

16.1

General warranty

If within one year of the original installation date of a water heater supplied by

 

 

A.O. Smith, following verification, and at the sole discretion of A.O. Smith, a

 

 

section or part (with exclusion of the tank) proves to be defective or fails to

 

 

function correctly due to manufacturing and/or material defects, then A.O. Smith

 

 

shall repair or replace this section or part.

16.2

Tank warranty

If within 3 years of the original installation date of a water heater supplied by

 

 

A.O. Smith, following inspection, and at the sole discretion of A.O. Smith, the

 

 

glass-lined steel tank proves to be leaking due to rust or corrosion occurring on

 

 

the water side, then A.O. Smith shall offer to replace the defective water heater

with an entirely new water heater of equivalent size and quality. The warranty period given on the replacement water heater shall be equal to the remaining warranty period of the original water heater that was supplied. Notwithstanding that stated earlier in this article, in the event that unfiltered or softened water is used, or allowed to stand in the water heater, the warranty shall be reduced to one year from the original installation date.

d.The tank is safeguarded against harmful scaling and lime buildup by means of periodic maintenance.

e.The water temperatures in the heater do not exceed the maximum setting of the thermostats, which form a part of the water heater.

f.The water pressure and/or heat load do not exceed the maximum values stated on the water heater rating plate.

g.The water heater is installed in a non-corrosive atmosphere or environment.

h.The water heater is connected to a protected cold supply arrangement, which is: approved by the relevant authority; with sufficient capacity for this purpose; supplying a pressure no greater than the working pressure stated on the water heater; and where applicable by a likewise approved temperature and pressure relief valve, fitted in accordance with installation instructions of A.O.
