Guarantee

The warranty period for the system is 25 years. The warranty period for galvanized steel parts is 10 years. The
guarantee is only valid if the installation is carried out professionally and all system components are pur-
chased from Aerocompact. If the assembly instructions or the planning documents are disregarded, the war-
ranty will be invalidated.

Photovoltaic racking systems are not maintenance-free. Carry out maintenance annually and immediately
after unusual weather events, e.g., after heavy storms or heavy snowfall, etc. If the maintenance is not carried
out at the specified interval, the warranty will become void.

General information on liability

We point out that the product is sold within the framework of a purchase agreement. Assembly/installation
by the purchaser or third parties is not carried out on behalf of or for Aerocompact and must be carried out
by qualified personnel strictly in accordance with the installation instructions. The Aerocompact system
must be designed and planned with the AEROTOOL software. Aerocompact is not responsible for the pro-
ject-related statics of the roof structure, for obtaining and documenting the roof manufacturer's approval
for the installation of the corresponding fasteners on the respective roof (in terms of warranties), nor for the
professional execution.

Errors and damage as well as limited or insufficient functionality of the system due to incorrect installation
and/or installation that deviates from the installation instructions and/or the project report (AEROTOOL)
exclude any material defect for which Aerocompact is responsible. In the event of improper handling, the
buyer's rights of warranty for material defects shall not longer be valid. The system warranty is only valid if
all system components are purchased from Aerocompact.

Systems with clamping on the short module side

For a system with a clamp on the short side of the module, it is assumed that the module may also be used
in this mounting form (clamp on the short sides of the module). This release can either be generally avail-
able as part of the module installation instructions or can be given by the module manufacturer for specific
projects.
