3. A qualified installer must install this stove or fireplace. This Limited Warranty covers defects in materials 

and workmanship only if the product has been installed in accordance with local building and fire codes; 

in their absence, refer to the owner’s manual. If the product is damaged or broken as a result of any 

alteration, willful abuse, mishandling, accident, neglect, or misuse of the product, the Limited Warranty 

does not apply.

Warranty policy. Performance problems due to operator error will not be covered by the Limited Warranty 

policy.

5. As this is a heating appliance some changes in colour of surface finishes may occur. This is not a flaw and 

as such is not covered under this warranty.

a defect and, therefore, is not covered under this Limited Warranty.

Limited Warranty.

cleaners used on it.

such products may nullify the Limited Warranty on this stove. If unsure as to the extent of this Limited 

Warranty, contact your authorized Enviro dealer before installation.

conditions.

11. The Limited Warranty does not cover installation and operational related problems such as spillage 

caused by environmental conditions. Environmental conditions include but are not limited to nearby 

trees, buildings, roof tops, wind, hills, mountains, inadequate venting or ventilation, excessive offsets, 

negative air pressures or other influences caused by mechanical systems such as furnaces, fans, clothes 

dryers etc.

chemicals.

which is the result of, but not limited to, improper chimney/venting installation.

 

c) Salt air in coastal areas or high humidity can be corrosive to the finish; these environments can cause 

rusting. Damage caused by salt air or high humidity is not covered by the Limited Warranty.

13. Exclusions to the Limited Warranty include: injury, loss of use, damage, failure to function due to 

accident, negligence, misuse, improper installation, alteration or adjustment of the manufacturer’s 

settings of components, lack of proper and regular maintenance, alteration, or act of God.
