Warranty

Beckett warrants its equipment specifically to those who have purchased it for resale, including your qualified service agency (dealer). In the event of any prob- lems with your equipment or its installation, you should contact your dealer for assistance.

The OilHeat Manufacturers' Association supports the use of low sulfur fuels as defined by ASTM D396, Grades Number 1 Low Sulfur and Number 2 Low Sulfur, as the preferred heating fuel for the following reasons:

Low sulfur fuels reduce deposits on heat exchanger surfaces, extending the service interval between cleanings.

The reduced deposits increase the efficiency of the appliance.

Low sulfur fuels reduce particulate emissions.

Low sulfur fuels reduce oxides of nitrogen emissions.
