The aquastat must be set so the water jacket temperature never falls below 150F otherwise condensation will be created on the inside of the firebox and will cause corrosion that is not covered under warranty.

This warranty is limited to defective parts and excludes any incidental and consequential damages connected therewith. Nature's Comfort does not warranty damage or malfunction to any interior portion of the boiler caused by ash corrosion or allowing the unit to overheat. All interior portions must be completely cleaned out of all ashes and creosote a minimum of 2 times per year, half way through the heating season and at the end of heating season.

Nature's Comfort's wood boilers are not meant to be your sole source of heat. It is the responsibility of the owner to have a backup system in place. If you do not have a backup source of heat you are at risk of damage due to lack of heat. Nature's Comfort will not warranty or be responsible for any damage caused by lack of heat at your premises or for any cost incurred from using a backup heat system in the event of a boiler failure.

There is no written or implied performance warranty on the boiler as Nature's Comfort has no control over the installation, structure insulation, maintenance, daily operation and heating demand on a unit or what is burned in the boiler. Nature's Comfort will not cover or be held responsible for any cost of wood or coal burned in excess of what is expected or considered normal as installation, fuel being used, structure size and insulation conditions are out of its control.

Treatment & Testing

Your boiler must have "Nature's Comfort Boiler Treatment" added during initial filling with water, antifreeze or glycol and must be tested when first filled and then annually at the end of a heating season to ensure proper nitrite concentration (1,000-1,500ppm) for your warranty to remain valid. The water jacket must remain full of properly treated water at all times after installation save for draining, flushing and re-treating. Minimum recommended initial mix ratios for each boiler is: NCB120 - 1.5Qt; NCB175 - 1.5Qts; NCB250 - 2Qts; NCB325(G) - 3Qts, NCB-575 - 6Qts, GT-6000 -2Qts. Contact Nature's Comfort or your dealer to obtain water treatment. You must have your water tested for nitrites by your dealer or you may order a more comprehensive test from Wood Boiler Solutions LLC to also satisfy warranty requirements.
