workmanship or both for a period not exceeding twelve consecutive months from the date of original purchase by the first retail

This warranty applies to the original owner that provides a proof of purchase. The warranty is not transferable. The warranty period 

begins on the date of purchase by the first retail consumer or commercial end user, and continues for the twelve month consecutive 

period thereafter. Any unit used in a commercial application is covered for a period of 90 days after purchase by the first commercial 

end user. For the warranty to be valid, the product must be registered online, or the warranty card must be filled out and received 

by Ardisam, within 30 days of purchase. Ardisam shall not be obligated to ship any repair or replacement product to any location 

outside of the United States of America or Canada.*
