Follow-up Service
* A qualified service agency is any individual, firm,
corporation, or company which either in person
or through a representative is engaged in and is
responsible for the connection, utilization, repair or
servicing of gas utilization equipment or accessories;
who is experienced in such work, familiar with all
precautions required, and has compiled with all of the
requirements of the authority having jurisdiction.
• If you move to a region that uses a different type
of gas or if the local gas supply is converted,
replacement of the gas manifold and adjustment
of the appliance will be necessary.
• This work must be performed by either Noritz or
a qualified service agency and will be charged for
even during the warranty period. The qualified
installer will also be responsible for purchasing
the gas conversion kit directly from the
manufacturer.
