COVERAGE
A. Should a defect or malfunction result in a leakage of water within the above-stated warranty periods due to defective material or
workmanship, malfunction, or failure to comply with the above warranty, HTP will replace the defective or malfunctioning water heater
or part(s) with a replacement of the nearest comparable model available at the time of replacement.
B. If HTP is unable to repair or replace the water heater or part(s) so as to conform to this warranty after a reasonable number of
attempts, HTP will then provide, at its option, a replacement water heater. These remedies are the purchaser’s exclusive remedies for
breach of warranty.
C. If government regulations, industry certification, or similar standards require the replacement water heater or part(s) to have features
not found in the defective water heater or part(s), the owner will be charged the difference in price represented by those required
features. If the owner pays the price difference for those required features and/or to upgrade the size and/or other features available on
a new replacement water heater or part(s), the owner will also receive a complete new limited warranty for that replacement water
heater or part(s).
D. If at the time of a request for service the owner cannot provide a copy of the original sales receipt or the warranty registration, the
warranty period for the water heater shall then be deemed to have commenced thirty (30) days after the date of manufacture of the
water heater and NOT the date of installation of the water heater.
E. This warranty extends only to water heaters utilized in heating applications that have been properly installed by qualified
professionals based upon the manufacturer’s installation instructions.
OWNER RESPONSIBILITIES

and/or ETL standards, as well as any applicable national or local building codes.
3. Service trips to teach you how to install, use, maintain, or to bring the water heater installation into compliance with local building
codes and regulations.
4. Failure to locate the water heater in an area where leakage of the tank or water line connections and the combination temperature
and relief valve will not result in damage to the area adjacent to the water heater or lower floors of the structure.
5. Any failed components of the heat system not manufactured by HTP as part of the water heater.
6. Water heaters repaired or altered without the prior written approval of HTP.
7. Damages, malfunctions, or failures resulting from failure to install the water heater in accordance with applicable building
