CFM Corporation warrants that all refractory brick and

provided only to the original purchaser.

Limited 1 Year Warranty
The following parts of the woodburning fireplace are war-
ranted to be free of defects in material and workmanship
for a period of one year from the date you receive it: The

finish. Any of these items found to be defective will be
repaired or replaced at no charge, upon the return of the

rized Dealer.

warranty for a period not to exceed the remaining term of
the original limited warranty or six (6) months, whichever

Exclusions & Limitations
1. This warranty is non-transferable.
2. This warranty does not cover misuse of the fireplace.
Misuse includes overfiring, which will result if the
fireplace is used in such a manner as to cause one or
more of the plates to glow red. Overfiring can be iden-
tified later by warped plates and areas where the paint
pigments has burned off. Overfiring in enamel com-
ponents is identified by bubbling, cracking, chipping
and discoloration of the porcelain enamel finish. CFM
Corporation offers no warranty on chipping of enamel
surfaces. Inspect your woodburning component prior
to accepting it for any damage to the enamel.
3. This warranty does not cover misuse of the fireplace
as described in the Owners Guide, nor does it cover
a fireplace which has been modified unless autho-
rized by a CFM Corporation representative in writing.
This warranty does not cover damage to the fireplace
caused by burning salt saturated wood, chemically
treated wood, or any fuel not recommended in the
Owners Guide.
4. This warranty does not cover a fireplace repaired by
someone other than a Vermont Castings Authorized
Dealer.
5. Damage to the unit while in transit is not covered
by this warranty but is subject to a claim against the
common carrier. Contact Vermont Castings Authorized
Dealer from whom you purchased your fireplace or
CFM Corporation if the purchase was direct. (Do not
operate the fireplace as this may negate the ability to
process the claim with the carrier).
6. Claims are not valid where the installation does not
conform to local building and fire codes or, in their ab-
sence, to the recommendations in our Owners Guide.
7. The salt air environment of coastal areas, or a high-
humidity environment, can be corrosive to the porce-
lain enamel finish. These conditions can cause rusting
of the cast iron beneath the porcelain enamel finish,
which will cause the porcelain enamel finish to flake
off. This warranty does not cover damage caused by
a salt air or high-humidity environment.
8. CFM Corporation shall have no obligation to enhance
or update any unit once manufactured.
IN NO EVENT SHALL CFM CORPORATION BE LIABLE
FOR INCIDENTAL AND CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.
ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS,
ARE LIMITED TO THE DURATION OF THIS WRITTEN
WARRANTY. THIS WARRANTY SUPERCEDES ALL OTHER
ORAL OR WRITTEN WARRANTIES.
Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitations of
incidental and consequential damages or limitations on
how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limi-
tations may not apply to you. This warranty gives you
specific rights and you may have other rights, which vary
from state to state.
