GUARANTEE 

 
CONDITIONS OF GUARANTEE 
 
Your ACQUISITIONS stove is guaranteed against defects arising from faulty manufacture 
for one year subject to the following express conditions. Failure to comply with these 
conditions will invalidate the guarantee. 

 

Your ACQUISITIONS dealer or a suitably qualified engineer must install the stove. 
Upon installation the receipt must be kept as proof of purchase. 

 

The guarantee is one year from date of purchase. 

 

The guarantee does not cover parts deemed to be replaceable in the normal usage 
of the stove. These parts are: glass panels, rope seals, glass seals, bottom grate, ash 
pan, fire bricks, and baffle plate. 
 

HOW TO PROCEED WITH A COMPLAINT 
 
If you have cause for dissatisfaction with your stove, you should first contact your 
ACQUISITIONS dealer, who will bring your concerns to our attention. We will assess the 
nature of the complaint and either send replacement parts for your dealer to fit, or 
nominate a regional engineer to inspect the appliance and carry out any remedial work 
that may be necessary. If the fault is not actually due to faulty manufacture but some 
other cause i.e. misuse, failure to install correctly, or failure to service at regular 
intervals, a charge will be made to cover the cost of the visit and any new parts required. 
In the first year ACQUISITIONS will only deal with the dealer direct. 
 
SPARE PARTS 
 
Only genuine ACQUISITIONS spare parts are recommended. Parts that may need 
Occasional replacement are: 
Fire bricks 
Ash pan 
Fire grate 
Mitt 
Baffle
