Manufacturer’s Product Warranty

Advantage Controls  warrants units of its manufacture to be free of defects in material or workmanship.  Liability under this 

policy extends for 24 months from date of installation.  Liability is limited to repair or replacement of any failed equipment 

or part proven defective in material or workmanship upon manufacturer’s examination.  Removal and installation costs 

are not included under this warranty.  Manufacturer’s liability shall never exceed the selling price of equipment or part 

in question.  Advantage disclaims all liability for damage caused by its products by improper  installation, maintenance, 

use or attempts to operate products beyond their intended  functionality, intentionally or otherwise, or any unauthorized 

repair.   Advantage is not  responsible for damages, injuries or expense incurred through the use of its products.

The above warranty is in lieu of other warranties, either expressed or implied.  No agent of ours is authorized to provide 

any warranty other than the above.

30 Day Billing Memo Policy 

Advantage Controls maintains a unique factory exchange program to ensure uninterrupted service with minimum downtime.  

If your unit malfunctions, call 1-800-743-7431, and provide our technician with Model and Serial Number information.  If  

we are unable to diagnose and solve your problem over the phone, a fully warranted replacement unit will be shipped, 

usually within 48 hours, on a 30 Day Billing Memo.  

This service requires a purchase order and the replacement unit is billed to your regular account for payment. The 

replacement unit will be billed at current list price for that model less any applicable resale discount.  Upon return of 

your old unit, credit will be issued to your account if the unit is in warranty.  If the unit is out of warranty or the damage 

not covered, a partial credit will be applied based upon a prorated replacement price schedule dependent on the age 

of the unit.  Any exchange covers only the controller or pump.  Electrodes, liquid end components and other external 

accessories are not covered.
