For the 8th year after the date of installation, the 
same warranty will apply except that the owner will 
be charged 60% of cost of replacement parts and 
full costs of repair work.

For the 9th year after the date of installation, the

be charged 80% of replacement parts and full costs 
of repair work. 

iv)

 

For the 10th year after the date of installation, the 
same warranty will apply except that the owner will 
be charged 90% of replacement parts and full costs 
of repair work. 

 
The  benefits  provided  to  you  by  the  warranty  and 
replacement  guarantee  (collectively  “Warranty”)  are  in 
addition to the guarantees and other rights and remedies 
available  to  you  under  the  Australian  Consumer  Law 
(“ACL”). 

If  the  Unit fails  to  conform  to  this  Warranty  during  the 
applicable period, Apricus Australia will replace any failed 
component  or  where  necessary,  in  the  absolute 
discretion  of  Apricus  Australia,  replace  the  Unit  free  of 
charge  including  reasonable  labour  costs  incurred  in 
normal business working hours. 

This Warranty only applies to defects which have arisen 
solely from faulty materials or workmanship in the Unit 
and  does  not  apply  to  other  defects  which  may  have 
arisen  as  a  result  of,  without  limitation,  the  following: 
accidental  damage,  abuse,  misuse,  maltreatment, 

abnormal  stress  or  strain,  harsh  or  adverse  water 
conditions  including  excessive  water  pressure  or 
temperature, neglect of any kind or otherwise as a result 
of any use of the Unit contrary to the product manual or 
other  instructions  provided  by  Apricus  Australia. 
Alterations  or  repair  of  the  Unit  other  than  by  an 
accredited  and  licensed  service  agent  or  technician  are 
not  covered.  Attachment  of  accessories  or  use  of  non-
genuine 

replacement  parts  other 

than 

those 

manufactured  or  approved by  Apricus Australia  are not 
covered by this Warranty. 

This Warranty applies only to the Unit and does not cover 
any ancillary plumbing or electrical parts supplied by the 
installer such as pressure limiting valve, tempering valve, 
line  strainer,  stop  cocks,  non-return  valve,  electrical 
switches, pumps or fuses, or faulty installation.  

The Unit must be installed by a licensed tradesperson in 
accordance  with  information  set  out  in  the  manual 
supplied  with  the  Unit  and/or  any  relevant  statutory 
requirements. If the Unit is located in a position that does 
not comply with the installation instructions or relevant 
statutory  requirements,  then  this  Warranty  does  not 
cover major dismantling or removal of cupboards, doors, 
walls  or  special  equipment  and/  or  excessive  labour, at 
the determination of Apricus Australia, to make the Unit 
accessible for repair or replacement. 

As required by legislation, including under the ACL, any 
claims  for  damage  to  furniture,  carpets,  walls, 
foundations  or  any  other  consequential  loss  either 
directly or indirectly due to defects of any kind in a Unit 
will only be met by Apricus Australia where the damage 
could be considered reasonably foreseeable and installed 
complying  with  the  installation  instructions  and  all 
relevant statutory requirements. 

In addition to this Warranty, certain legislation (including 
the ACL) may give you rights which cannot be excluded, 
restricted  or  modified.  This  Warranty  must  be  read 
subject to such legislation and nothing in this Warranty 
has the effect of excluding, restricting or modifying those 
rights. 

If  Apricus Australia fails to meet a guarantee under the 
ACL, your remedy for such failure may be limited to any 
one or more of the following:
