All gas units on order as of October 9th, 2008 and pledged units converted to orders before February 10th, 2009 will be shipped per acknowledged sales order dates. We will not process additional orders for gas units beyond the dates specified above.
The Harman brand will continue to lead in the hearth industry and make the necessary changes to respond to the market demands. Thank you for your continued support. Please contact your Customer Service Representative if you have any questions.
