Temco Fireplace Products, Inc. warrants to the original purchaser that this glass door package is free from defects in 
material and workmanship for a period of one (1) year from the date of original purchase.  If any part of this glass 
door fails during this period, Temco Fireplace Products, Inc. will - at its option  - either repair or replace the part 
subject to the following terms:

 

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF ONE-YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY 

If the original purchaser of a Temco glass door kit believes that the part has failed during such period of one (1) year 
due to  a defect in material and workmanship, he should promptly return the defective part to the nearest Temco 
dealer or distributor.  Temco acceptance of any goods so shipped shall not be construed as or deemed an admission 
of any defect.  Transportation costs will be paid by the consumer both to and from the factory and the dealer or 
distributor.  Shipment from the dealer or distributor must be FOB Temco factory.  If, in the sole judgment of Temco 
Fireplace Products, Inc., upon inspection it appears that the part has failed due to a defect in material and 
workmanship, Temco will - at its option - either repair or  replace the part at no cost for the part.  All labor charges 
incurred in the removal and replacement of the defective part will be incurred by the original purchaser.  The remedy 
contained herein shall be the sole remedy for the breach of any express or im plied warranty of Temco. 

LIMITATION OF DURATION AND DISCLAIMER OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES  

Any implied warranties of Temco Fireplace Products, Inc., including warranties of merchantability or fitness for a 
particular purpose, which arise out of the sale of Tem co Glass Door Kits are limited to the duration of the warranties 
expressed above.  In no event shall any implied warranty applicable to the glass door kits be effective after the 
expiration date of the above limited warranty.  

(A) Glass Breakage.  Temco Fireplace Products does not warrant against breakage of glass.  Breakage is normally 

due to handling and shipping which is covered by the freight handler.  Breakage during use can be attributed to 
over-firing the fireplace which means flames are going up the chimney or licking against glass when the doors 
are in the closed position.  The extreme heat can cause the doors to shatter, resulting in possible property 
damage. 

(B) Disclaimer of special, incidental or consequential damages.  Temco Fireplace Products, Inc. shall have no 

liability for any special, incidental or consequential damages arising from the sale or use of the glass door kit.  
Temco makes  no warranty or representation and assumes no responsibility for the performance of any product 
in which the glass door is contained. 

(C) Further disclaimer.  Any express or implied warranties of Temco, including the limited warranties of 

merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, shall not apply and Temco assumes no responsibility for any 
damages that result due to the following: 

(1) If said glass door kit is not installed and operated at all times in accordance with the installation and 

operation instructions furnished. 

(2) In any case where the said glass door kit has been either tempered with or altered in any way.  

(3) In any case, where in the sole judgment of Temco Fireplace Products, the glass door kit has been misused, 

used negligently or suffered damage. 

(D) The warranties herein are expressly in lieu of any other expressed or implied warranty.  Temco has not 

authorized any person to make any representations or assume any liability in connection with the sale of Temco 
glass door kits  except such representations that are contained herein and in the specific installation and 
operation instructions furnished with the glass door kit model. 

(E) Temco makes no express warranty and disclaims all implied warranties as to accessories or parts not supplied 

by Temco.
