If you suspect that your goods have developed a fault, first check that the problem is not something like a blown fuse on an electric fire or soot deposits on a gas fire pilot or batteries for a remote control appliance. Check the manufacturer’s manual, specifically the fault finding/troubleshooting section to see whether you can resolve the problem yourself.
4.4.3. If the problem cannot be easily rectified, the next stage will be to arrange for your installer to return to check that the fault is not due to incorrect installation. If the installer is satisfied that the fault has not occurred through incorrect or poor installation, they will need to complete a report which should help determine where the fault is which we can forward to the manufacturer.

This is not a fault with the fire and in no way affects the performance of the appliance.

We shall not be liable for any losses, costs, damages, charges or expenses should this occur.

4.7. Product Guaranties and Warranties
All of the products we supply will be subject to the warranty terms laid out by the specific manufacturer. We strongly advise that you familiarise yourself with the individual terms.
