products only, which have not been altered, modified nor repaired since shipment from factory. Proof of purchase (dated bill of sale),
model name and serial number must be supplied when making any warranty claim to your CENTURY dealer.
This warranty applies to normal residential use only. Damages caused by misuse, abuse, improper installation, lack of
maintenance, over firing, negligence or accident during transportation, power failures, downdrafts, venting problems or
under-estimated heating area are not covered by this warranty. The recommended heated area for a given appliance is defined
by the manufacturer as its capacity to maintain a minimum acceptable temperature in the designated area in case of a power
failure.
This warranty does not cover any scratch, corrosion, distortion, or discoloration. Any defect or damage caused by the use of
unauthorized or other than original parts voids this warranty. An authorized qualified technician must perform the installation in
accordance with the instructions supplied with this product and all local and national building codes. Any service call related to an
