will be warranted for ninety (90) days.
B. 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, Westinghouse will replace the defective or malfunctioning
boiler with a replacement of the nearest comparable model available at the time of replacement. The replacement boiler will be
warranted for the unexpired portion of the applicable warranty period of the original boiler.
