STANDARD WARRANTY

Your Kent wood fire is warranted for 10 years on the firebox with the exception of the 

following Kent parts: glass, glass seal, door seal, fire bricks, flue, secondary air system and 

removable baffle which will all have a 12 month warranty (parts only) provided they have 

been installed by an approved installer.  The warranty does not apply to normal wear 

and tear, misuse or neglect, nor if parts of the wood fire are replaced with non genuine 

Kent parts. Kent recommends an annual service and flue sweep with replacement of 

parts if recommended to obtain maximum life out of your wood burner.

CONDITIONS

Your Kent wood fire must be installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions 

and  all  applicable  standards,  regulations  and  by-laws.  Your  Kent  wood  fire  must  be 

installed  with  an  approved  flue  system.  Failure  to  do  so  may  void  your  warranty  in  its 

entirety. The company is not liable for any consequential damage by a failure or defect 

covered  in  this  warranty.  All  claims  against  the  warranty  must  be  directed  in  the  first 

instance to the retail outlet from which you made your purchase. Any repairs undertaken 

without the express authority of Kent will invalidate this warranty. This warranty does not 

cover damage caused by wetbacks/water boosters, burning improper fuels (driftwood/

treated wood/coal or plastic-based waste), or installation, plumbing and sweeping work 

done by others (the installer is liable for any incorrect procedures or poor workmanship).

 

TRANSFERABILITY

Your Kent wood fire warranty is transferable on the sale of the home where the wood 

fire is installed. Nothing in this warranty is intended to limit any conditions of the warranty 

right or remedy pursuant to the Consumer Guarantee Act 1993, except to the extent 

permitted under the Act. Your Kent wood fire is intended for domestic use only and the 

warranty is not valid for wood fires to be used for business purposes. Kent reserves the right 

to alter or amend specifications or designs of its product without prior notice.
