WARRANTY CONDITIONS 

1. This warranty is applicable only to water heaters 

manufactured from 1st June 2007. 

2.  The water heater must be correctly commissioned by an 

authorised and licensed person and certified by the 
relevant State Gas Authority. 

3.  The water heater must be installed in accordance with 

the Raypak installation instructions, supplied with the 
water heater, and in accordance with all relevant 
statutory and local requirements of the State in which 
the water heater is to be installed. 

4.  Where a failed component or water heater is replaced 

under Warranty, the balance of the original warranty 
period will remain effective. The replaced part or water 
heater does not carry a new warranty. 

5. Where the water heater is installed outside the 

boundaries of a metropolitan area as defined by Rheem 

Australia Pty Ltd or further than 25 km from a regional 
Rheem branch office or a Rheem Accredited Service 
Agent, the costs of transport, insurance and traveling 
between the nearest Rheem Australia Pty Ltd 
Accredited Service Agent’s premises and the installed 
site shall be the owner’s responsibility. 

6.  The warranty only applies to the water heater and 

original or genuine (company) component replacement 
parts and therefore does not cover any plumbing or 
electrical parts supplied by the installer and not an 
integral part of the water heater, e.g. pressure limiting 
valve, stop cock, non-return valve, electrical switches, 
pumps, or fuse. 

7.  The water heater must be sized to supply the hot water 

demand in accordance with the guidelines in Rheem 
Water Heater literature. 

WARRANTY EXCLUSIONS

BECOME VOID, AND MAY INCUR A SERVICE CHARGE AND/OR COST OF PARTS. 

 

a)  Accidental damage to the water heater or any 
component, including: acts of God, failure due to misuse; 
incorrect installation; attempts to repair the water heater 
other than by a Rheem Accredited Service Agent or Rheem 
Service. 
b)  Where it is found there is nothing wrong with the water 
heater, where the complaint is related to excessive 
discharge from the pressure relief valve due to high water 
pressure; where there is no flow of water due to faulty 
plumbing; where water leaks are related to plumbing and 
not the water heater components; where there is a failure of 
gas, electricity or water supplies; where the supply of gas, 
electricity or water does not comply with relevant codes or 
acts. 

c)  Where the water heater or water heater component 
failed directly as a result of; excessive water pressure, 
temperature and/or thermal input; incorrect flow rate 
through the heat exchanger; corrosive atmosphere. 
d)  Where the water heater is located in a position that 
does not comply with the Raypak installation instructions or 
relevant statutory requirements, causing the need for major 
dismantling or removal of cupboards, doors or walls, or use 
of special equipment to bring the water heater to floor level, 
or to a serviceable position. 
e)  Repairs to the water heater due to corrosion or scale 
formation in the waterways when the water heater has been 
connected to a harmful water supply

2.  SUBJECT TO ANY STATUTORY PROVISIONS TO THE CONTRARY, THIS WARRANTY EXCLUDES ANY AND ALL 

CLAIMS FOR DAMAGE TO FURNITURE, WALLS, FOUNDATIONS OR ANY OTHER CONSEQUENTIAL LOSS 
EITHER DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY DUE TO LEAKAGE FROM THE WATER HEATER. 

 

In addition to this warranty, the Trade Practices Act 1974 and similar laws in each state and territory provide the owner under 
certain circumstances with certain minimum statutory rights in relation to your Raypak water heater. This warranty must be read 
subject to that legislation and nothing in this warranty has the effect of excluding, restricting or modifying those rights.
