Limited Warranty

Warranty Period and Exclusions:

  Broan-NuTone LLC (the “Company”) warrants to the original consumer purchaser of its product (“you”) that the product (the 

“Product”) will be free from material defects in the Product or its workmanship for a period of one (1) year from the date of original purchase.
The limited warranty period for any replacement parts provided by the Company and for any Products repaired or replaced under this limited warranty shall be the 

remainder of the original warranty period.

This warranty does not cover speed controls, fluorescent lamp starters, tubes, halogen and incandescent bulbs, fuses, filters, ducts, roof caps, wall caps and other 

accessories for ducting that may be purchased separately and installed with the Product. This warranty also does not cover (a) normal maintenance and 

service, (b) normal 

wear and tear, (c) any Products or parts which have been subject to misuse, abuse, abnormal usage, negligence, accident, improper or insufficient maintenance, storage 

or repair (other than repair by the Company), (d) damage caused by faulty installation, or installation or use contrary to recommendations or instructions, (e) any Product 

that has been moved from its original point of installation, (f) damage caused by environmental or natural elements, (g) damage in transit, (h) natural wear of finish, 

(i) Products in commercial or nonresidential use, or (j) damage caused by fire, flood or other act of God. This warranty covers only Products sold to original consumers 

in the United States by the Company or U.S. distributors authorized by the Company.  
This warranty supersedes all prior warranties and is not transferable from the original consumer purchaser.  

No Other Warranties:

 This Limited Warranty contains the Company’s sole obligation and your sole remedy for defective products. The foregoing warranties are exclusive 

and in lieu of any other warranties, express or implied. THE COMPANY DISCLAIMS AND EXCLUDES ALL OTHER EXPRESS WARRANTIES, AND DISCLAIMS AND 

EXCLUDES ALL WARRANTIES IMPLIED BY LAW, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THOSE OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. To 

the extent that applicable law prohibits the exclusion of implied warranties, the duration of any applicable implied warranty is limited to the period specified for the express 

warranty above.  Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you. Any oral or written description 

of the Product is for the sole purpose of identifying it and shall not be construed as an express warranty.
Whenever possible, each provision of this Limited Warranty shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision is 

held to be prohibited or invalid, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision 

or the other remaining provisions of the Limited Warranty.

Remedy:

  During the applicable limited warranty period, the Company will, at its option, provide replacement parts for, or repair or replace, without charge, any Product 

or part thereof, to the extent the Company finds it to be covered by and in breach of this limited warranty under normal use and service. The Company will ship the 

repaired or replaced Product or replacement parts to you at no charge. You are responsible for all costs for removal, reinstallation and shipping, insurance or other freight 

charges incurred in the shipment of the Product or part to the Company. If you must send the Product or part to the Company, as instructed by the Company, you must 

properly pack the Product or part—the Company is not responsible for damage in transit. The Company reserves the right to utilize reconditioned, refurbished, repaired 

or remanufactured Products or parts in the warranty repair or replacement process. Such Products and parts will be comparable in function and performance to an 

original Product or part and warranted for the remainder of the original warranty period.  

Exclusion of Damages:

  THE COMPANY’S OBLIGATION TO PROVIDE REPLACEMENT PARTS, OR REPAIR OR REPLACE, AT THE COMPANY’S OPTION, SHALL BE YOUR 

SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY UNDER THIS LIMITED WARRANTY AND THE COMPANY’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE OBLIGATION. THE COMPANY SHALL NOT BE LIABLE 

FOR INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL OR SPECIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE PRODUCT, ITS USE OR PERFORMANCE.  
Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. This warranty 

gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights, which vary from state to state.  
This warranty covers only replacement or repair of defective Products or parts thereof at the Company’s main facility and does not include the cost of field service travel 

and living expenses.
Any assistance the Company provides to or procures for you outside the terms, limitations or exclusions of this limited warranty will not constitute a waiver of such terms, 

limitations or exclusions, nor will such assistance extend or revive the warranty.
The Company will not reimburse you for any expenses incurred by you in repairing or replacing any defective Product, except for those incurred with the Company’s 

prior written permission.

How to Obtain Warranty Service:

  To qualify for warranty service, you must (a) notify the Company at the address or telephone number stated below within seven (7) days of 

discovering the covered defect, (b) give the model number and part identification and (c) describe the nature of any defect in the Product or part. At the time of requesting 

warranty service, you must present evidence of the original purchase date. If you cannot provide a copy of the original written limited warranty, then the terms of the Company’s 

most current written limited warranty for your particular product will control. The most current limited written warranties for the Company’s products can be found at
