LIMITED WARRANTY CERTIFICATE 

FOR GAS-FIRED OVERHEAD VENTED ROOM HEATER : P40-R & P40R-I SERIES 
 

The Manufacturer warrants that this product is free from defects in material or workmanship under normal use and ser-
vice subject to the terms of this document. 

THREE YEAR WARRANTY

 

Subject to the conditions and limitations stated herein, during the term of this limited warranty, the manufacturer will sup-
ply any component part (at their option a new or repaired component part) of the heater as defined below, excluding any 
labor, which the Manufacturer’s examination determines to be defective in workmanship or material for a period of three 
years (3 years) from the date of installation, unless otherwise specified below. This warranty applies to the heater’s origi-
nal owner, and subsequent transferees and only if the unit is installed and operated in accordance with the printed in-
structions accompanying the unit and in compliance with all applicable installation codes and good trade practices. War-
ranty of replacement parts is limited to a period of one year (1 year). 
 

WHAT IS NOT COVERED 

The Manufacturer shall not be responsible for any expenses, including service, labor, diagnosis, analysis, material or 
transportation charges incurred during removal or reinstallation of this product, or any of its components or parts.  All 
labor or service charges shall be paid by the owner.  This warranty does not cover heating products improperly installed, 
misused, exposed to or damaged by negligence, accident, corrosive or contaminating atmosphere, water, excessive 
thermal shock, impact, abrasion, normal wear due to use, alteration or operation contrary to the owner’s manual or if the 
serial number has been altered, defaced or removed.  This warranty shall not apply if the input to the heating product 
exceeds by more than 2% of the rated input on the rating plate.  The Manufacturer shall not be liable for any default or 
delay in performance by its warranty caused by any contingency beyond its control, including war, government restric-
tions, or restraints, strikes, fire, flood, acts of God, or short or reduced supply of raw materials or products. 

 

WARRANTY PROCEDURE

 

To establish the installation date for any purpose under this Limited Warranty, you must retain the original records that 
can establish the installation date of your unit. If you do not provide such documents, the start date of the term of this 
Limited Warranty will be based upon  the date of unit manufacture, plus thirty (30) days. Failure to maintain the equip-
ment through regular annual service maintenance by a qualified service technician shall void the warranty. 
 

LIMITATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS 

This document contains all warranties made by the Manufacturer and may not be varied, altered or extended by any 
person.  There are no promises, or agreements extending from the Manufacture other than the statements contained 
herein.  THIS WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF ALL WARRANTIES EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, TO THE EXTENT AUTHOR-
IZED BY THE LAWS OF THE  JURISDICTION, INCLUDING SPECIFICALLY THE WARRANTIES OR MERCHANTIBIL-
ITY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. 
It is understood and agreed that the Manufacturer’s obligation hereunder is limited to repairing or replacing parts deter-
mined to be defective as stated above. In no event shall the Manufacturer be responsible for any alleged personal inju-
ries or other special, incidental or consequential damages. As to property damages, contract, tort or other claim the 
Manufacturer’s responsibility shall not exceed the purchase priced paid for the product. 
All replacement parts will be warranted  for the unused portion of the warranty coverage period remaining on the appli-
cable unit. 

Some Authorities do not allow certain warranty exclusions or limitations on duration of warranty or the exclusions or limi-
tations of incidental or consequential damages.  In such cases, the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you 
and are not intended to do so where prohibited by law.  This warranty gives you specific legal rights.  You may also 
have other rights which vary by jurisdiction.
