4. WARRANTY
(CERTIFICATE)
In order to register your warranty,
please fill in the enclosed warranty
card and return it to us. We will then
send you a warranty certificate.
This certificate will provide the owner
with a warranty as described below
for a boiler delivered by STATE WATER
HEATERS, who will be committed to
provide the owner with this warranty.
4.1
Warranty general
If, within one year of the original
installation date, after investigation and
exclusive evaluation by STATE WATER
HEATERS, a boiler delivered by STATE
WATER HEATERS turns out to have a
part, with the exception of the tank, not
function as it should as a result of
manufacturing or material faults,
STATE WATER HEATERS will replace
or repair this part.
4.2
Warranty tank
If, within five years of the original
installation date, after investigation and
exclusive evaluation by STATE WATER
HEATERS, a boiler delivered by STATE
WATER HEATERS turns out to have a
steel glass-lined tank that is leaking as
a result of rust or corrosion from the
water side, STATE WATER HEATERS
will replace the whole boiler by a
completely new one of similar size and
quality. The replacement boiler will
have a warranty that will be valid for
the remaining period of the warranty
for the original boiler delivered.
Notwithstanding the provisions in
Article 2, the warranty term will be
reduced to one year after the original
installation date if unfiltered, softened
water is flowing through the boiler or
left in it.
