model name and serial number must be supplied when making any warranty claim to your DROLET 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
