Warranty details for your Metro wood fi re

Metro wood fi res are manufactured in New Zealand, using the highest 
quality of materials, workmanship and the latest manufacturing techniques, 
which is why we offer a full 10 year fi rebox warranty and a 1 year parts 
warranty for your peace of mind. 

Metro Warranty

(NZ Consumer laws apply to this warranty)

Pioneer Manufacturing Limited (Pioneer) warrants the steel fi rebox against 
defective materials and workmanship which would render it unfi t for normal 
domestic use, from the date of purchase by the original consumer, for a 
period of 10 years. 

Components including panel coating, door retainers, door seals, glass, 
trim, baffl e & bricks are warranted for a period of 1 year from the date of 
original purchase for normal domestic use against defective materials and 
workmanship. 

All associated accessories including, but not limited to, fans, fl ue systems, 
fl ue shields, wetbacks, tool sets, ash pots etc, are covered by a 1 year 
warranty against defective materials and workmanship.

It is recommended, but not a condition of this warranty, that a full service/
inspection of the Metro fi re be carried out at the end of each winter season.

maintained and serviced, warranty may be declined

bricks, baffl e plate or baffl e extension (white board on or under the

correcting such unauthorised repairs
