of first purchase, provided that the product has been properly installed, operated and maintained in accordance 

with all applicable instructions. To make a claim under this warranty the Bill of Sale or cancelled check must 

be presented.
This warranty is extended only to the original retail purchaser. This warranty covers the cost of part(s) required to 

restore this heater to proper operating condition and an allowance for labor when provided by a DESA Authorized 

Service Center. Warranty part(s) MUST be obtained through authorized dealers of this product and/or DESA who 

will provide original factory replacement parts. Failure to use original factory replacement parts voids this war-

ranty. The heater MUST be installed by a qualified installer in accordance with all local codes and instructions 

furnished with the unit.
This warranty does not apply to parts that are not in original condition because of normal wear and tear or parts 

that fail or become damaged as a result of misuse, accidents, lack of proper maintenance or defects caused by 

improper installation. Travel, diagnostic cost, labor, transportation and any and all such other costs related to 

repairing a defective heater will be the responsibility of the owner.

OF THE PRODUCT; THIS EXPRESS WARRANTY EXCLUDES ANY AND ALL OTHER EXPRESSED

WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE TO FOUR (4) 

YEARS ON ALL COMPONENTS FROM THE DATE OF FIRST PURCHASE; AND DESA’S LIABILITY IS 

HEREBY LIMITED TO THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THE PRODUCT AND DESA HEATING PRODUCTS 

SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY OTHER DAMAGES WHATSOEVER INCLUDING INDIRECT, INCI-

DENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.
Some states do not allow a limitation on how long an implied warranty lasts or an exclusion or limitation of 

incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation on implied warranties or exclusion or limitation on 

damages may not apply to you.
This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights that vary from state to state.
