LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY
CFM Corporation (hereinafter referred to as CFM) warrants that all
cast iron parts, the combustion chamber, ceramic burner, and heat
exchanger of every Vermont Castings gas product will be free of
defective material or workmanship during the period the product
is owned by the original owner subject to proof of purchase and
the conditions and limitations listed on this warranty document.
BASIC ONE-YEAR WARRANTY
CFM warrants to the original owner that your new Vermont Castings
Gas Appliance is free from defects in material or workmanship
for a period of one year from the date of purchase, subject to the
following conditions and limitations. Labor to replace these parts
is covered for one year, reimbursed per our warranty service fee
schedule.
COMPONENT WARRANTY LIMITATATIONS
PORCELAIN ENAMEL FINISHED PARTS: CFM offers no warranty on
chipping of enamel surfaces. Inspect all products prior to accepting
them for any damage to the enamel. The salt air environment of
coastal areas or a high humidity environment can be corrosive to
the porcelain enamel finish. These conditions can cause rusting
of the cast iron beneath the porcelain enamel finish, which will
cause the finish to flake off. Color lot variations with parts and/or
accessories can occur and are not covered by warranty.
GLASS: Glass is not warranted for breakage due to misuse or accident.
Glass is not covered for discoloration or stains due to environmental
issues, or improper cleaning and maintenance.
PLATED PARTS AND ACCESSORIES: Brass, nickel, and gold parts
should be cleaned with Lemon oil only. Commercial cleaners cannot
be used. Mortar mix and masonry cleaners corrode the brass
finish. The CFM will not be responsible for, nor will it warrant any
brass parts which are damaged by external chemicals or down
draft conditions.
ACCESSORIES: Unless otherwise noted, CFM supplied accessories
are covered for a period of one year.
