▶ This water heater should be serviced only by qualified service
personnel. Contact a service person for examination, repair or

▶ Failure to inspect the anode rod at least once a year could cause the

which it is installed. National Plumbing codes require a drain pan for
any water heater installation. Failure to install one is the sole
responsibility of owner and/or installer. Reference UPC 2006
(Uniform Plumbing Code) Section 508.1, or IPC 2006 (International
