DCA SERIES HUMIDITY CONTROL SYSTEMS

LIMITED PRODUCT WARRANTY

This certificate is our warranty to you. Please insure

that you or your installing dealer understand this

warranty. Dehumidifier Corporation of America, Inc.

applies this limited warranty on all units of its

manufacture to be free from defects in material and

workmanship under normal intended use and service

when units remain at original installation site and are

correctly installed and operated according to printed

instructions and in compliance with all local installation

and building codes and acceptable trade practices.

This Limited Warranty is void unless upon start-up

of the unit the “Start-up Report and Warranty

Registration” is completed and received at the

factory within 30 days of start-up. This will also

register the compressor warranty with the

compressor manufacturer.

The company shall, unless specified herein, during the

first three years after date of initial installation replace

any part supplied by DCA that fails because of a defect

in workmanship or material.

All controls, supplied by DCA, as part of a

dehumidification system will carry a one (1) year

warranty from date of start up as validated by the return

of the start up report returned to DCA no later than 30

days after the start up date.

All freon compressors and all other parts excluding

return air filters and blower belts, carry a three year

parts warranty. DCA will furnish a replacement

compressor, upon a compressor failure, shipped freight

collect. Subsequent compressor replacements, on a no

cost basis, will be at the discretion of DCA and will be

handled on a case by case basis. Normally after the

second compressor fails, within the 3 year warranty

period, a problem exists in the installation, maintenance

or causes beyond the control of DCA such as and not

limited to power fluctuations or lightning strikes. The

cause of failure must be determined before any action is

taken by DCA.

Refrigeration coils, as part of the DCA dehumidification

system, carry a three year warranty. DCA will furnish a

replacement refrigeration coil, upon a coil failure,

shipped freight collect. Subsequent coil replacements,

on a no cost basis, will be at the discretion of DCA and

handled on a case by case basis. Normally after the

second coil fails within the 3 year warranty period, a

problem exists in the installation, maintenance or

causes beyond the control of DCA. Premature coil fin

erosion normally signals that chemicals are stored in

the mechanical room, with the dehumidifier, or

contaminated return air is present and must be

corrected before any action is taken by DCA.

The definition of a defective dehumidifier part will be as

follows. In the case of a defective part, that falls in the

definition of its warranty period, the replacement part

will be shipped from the factory promptly with the

customer being billed immediately via COD, a valid

credit card via an existing open account with DCA. The
