and other acts of nature;

3.

 to damage resulting from operation with either the

flame sensor rod or overheat sensor removed;

4.

 to failure of the heat exchanger resulting from the

operation of the water heater in a corrosive
atmosphere or at water temperatures  exceeding  the
maximum rating, or if the water heater is not supplied
with potable water;

5.

 to defects or damage cause by any attachment

or modification, including any energy-saving device.
