The Takagi says the same thing in their Manual too about having it
professionally installed.

Front page of the T-K2 Manual:
WARNING
This product must be installed and serviced by a licensed plumber, a
licensed gas fitter, or a professional service technician and/or in
accordance with all local code. Improper installation and/or operation, or
installation by an unqualified person, will void the warranty.

Rinnai has it there too:
Installation and service must be performed by a qualified installer,
service agency or the gas supplier.

Whats a DIYer to do?

===============================
Install it himself..and go to his computer and print up an invoice
from an dealer...sign it and IF everything goes as it usually does
you will have no problems until 4 days after the warrenty period
expires anyway......
