The direct answer

Authorized product information can be useful, but copying it does not create a distinctive local answer. The business should add relevant context it can verify.

A practical check

Check permission, accuracy and whether the content answers a customer question. Separate manufacturer specifications from the business's own installation or service advice.

Choosing the next step

Use suitable attribution and add truthful local or practical context. Do not invent project experience to make syndicated content appear original.
