State Water Heaters, the warrantor, extends the following LIMITED WARRANTY to the owner of this boiler.

If the tank in this boiler shall prove upon examination by the warrantor to have leaked due to natural corrosion from water therein, during the FIRST year after initial installation, the warrantor will at its option, repair it or provide a replacement tank less elements and controls of equivalent size and then current model. Some government agencies are requiring energy efficient standards for boilers. In the event regulations prohibit sale of a model of equivalent size and construction, State Water Heaters will provide a model which complies with the regulations of your area, in which case the consumer will be charged the difference in price between the like replacement and the energy efficient model required. The warranty on the repair or replacement of the part, portion or tank will be limited to the unexpired term of the original warranty.
2.ALL OTHER PARTS
If within ONE year after initial installation of this boiler, any part or portion shall prove upon examination by the warrantor to be defective in material or workmanship, the warrantor will repair or replace such part or portion at its option.
