LIMITED WARRANTY

VANGUARD VENT-FREE GARAGE HEATERS

DESA International warrants this product and any parts thereof, to be free from defects in material and workmanship for
two years from the date of first purchase, provided that the product has been properly installed, operated, and maintained
in accordance with all applicable instructions. To make a claim under this warranty, the bill of sales or proof of purchase
must be presented.

This warranty is extended only to the original retail purchaser. This warranty covers only the cost of parts and labor
required to restore this heater to proper operating condition. Warranty parts must be obtained through authorized dealers
of this product and/or DESA International who will provide original factory replacement parts. Failure to use original
factory replacement parts voids this warranty. The heater must be installed by a qualified installer in accordance with all
local codes and instructions furnished with the unit.

This warranty does not apply to parts that are not in original condition because of normal wear and tear, or parts that fail
or become damaged as a result of misuse, accidents, lack of proper maintenance, alteration, tampering, contaminated
fuels, or defects caused by improper installation. Travel, transportation, and incidental costs associated with warranty
repairs are not reimbursable under this warranty and are the responsibility of the owner.

To the full extent allowed by the law of the jurisdiction that governs the sale of the product, this express warranty
excludes any and all other expressed warranties and limits the duration of any and all implied warranties, including
warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose to two years from the date of first purchase; and DESA
International’s liability is hereby limited to the purchase price of the product and DESA International shall not be liable
for any other damages whatsoever including indirect, incidental, or consequential damages.

Some states do not allow a limitation of how long an implied warranty lasts or an exclusion or limitation of incidental or
consequential damages, so the above limitation of implied warranties, or exclusion, or limitation of damages may not
apply to you.

This warranty provides the original retail purchaser with specific legal rights. For specific information regarding those

rights, please consult the applicable state laws.
