I'm guessing someone on this list knows. I returned a water
heater, today. Purchased Jan 26, 2004. Six year warranty.
The returns desk refunded me my original $198 or whatever it
was (including the tax). Gave me a store credit "gift" card.
And sent me to go buy another water heater. Which was $388.
So, it cost me about $190 to replace a WH that was in
warranty.
I thought they would say "sorry, sir" and send me home with
a new WH, at no charge. They blamed GE / Hotpoint for that
policy.
Does anyone know?
Oh, it's nice to have hot water, again. And yes, I did
install a shutoff.

I would not have thought they would refund anything after that long. The
MFG provides the warranty.
And yes they have gone up that much in 5 years.

Here in Maine there is an "implied warrantee" law that is for 4 YEARS...How
does that work..In any other states????
