If a service call reveals no warranty fault found with the gas heater, a charge will be made for the call. Our liability under this warranty is limited to the extent permitted by law. That is, to the extent that it is fair and reasonable if the Goods are not of a kind ordinarily acquired for personal, domestic or household use or consumption, your remedies associated with any failure or defect of the Product will be limited to:

• the replacement of the Goods or the supply of equivalent goods;
• the repair of the Goods;
• the payment of the cost of replacing the Goods or of acquiring equivalent goods; or

To owner/user: please note that as explained in the warranty information, installation is not covered by the warranty (for example, electrical and gas connections to the wall furnace). However, we still require that you have these things checked because they can affect the performance (and/or safety) of the heater. This is why we have included them in the Maintenance Schedule. Further, routine maintenance may be required more frequently in non-domestic applications or when operating in adverse environmental situations. It is your obligation to ensure that you comply with these requirements.
