a) the firebox for ten years;

2. This extended warranty does not apply;
a) if the heater is purchased from a person who has not been authorised by Gason to sell its products;
b) if, in the opinion of Gason, the heater or any other component has been subject to abuse, misuse, alteration, modification or has not been installed, operated or maintained in

accordance with the instructions provided by Gason;  or,

c) to owners other than the original purchaser.
3. If you believe that the heater you purchased contains a manufacturing defect and you wish to make a claim under this warranty, please contact an authorised Gason service 

centre to arrange for an assessment.

c) provide a full refund.
5. Parts replaced under warranty are warranted for the balance of their original warranty period.
6. If, at the discretion of Gason, the heater or any part needs to be replaced, serviced or repaired at an authorised Gason service  centre, then the person claiming under this

warranty must pay all costs associated with:

a) returning the heater; and
