QUALIFYING FOR WARRANTY COVERAGE
To obtain performance of any obligation under this document, the Original Purchaser must, within the applicable
warranty time period, contact HearthStone, at the address listed in the Warranty Registration section below or a
Dealer for instructions regarding the return of defective parts for repair, the return of the Woodstove for repair, or a
Dealer service call. The Original Purchaser should refer to the Dealer network search engine contained on
HearthStone’s Web site (www.hearthstonestoves.com) to find a Dealer nearest the Original Purchaser’s location.
The remedy for any breach of the foregoing warranties will consist of repair or replacement, at HearthStone’s
option, of any covered defect in the Woodstove. When the Original Purchaser contacts HearthStone or a Dealer,
HearthStone or the Dealer, as the case may be, will instruct the Original Purchaser to either return the defective

return the defective part, or the entire Woodstove (if needed), with shipping prepaid, to HearthStone or a Dealer.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this document, the Original Purchaser shall pay for any travel fees
