manufactured by National Refrigeration.  

 

  

GENERAL WARRANTY POLICY

 

 

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Company warrants all Products, including Service Parts, 
manufactured by the Company to be free of defects in material or workmanship, under normal use and 
application for a period of one (1) year from the original date of installation, or eighteen (18) months from 
the date of shipment from the Company, whichever occurs first. Any replacement part(s) so supplied will be 
warranted for the balance of the product’s original warranty.  The part(s) to be replaced must be made 
available in exchange for the replacement part(s) and reasonable proof of the original installation date of the 
product must be presented in order to establish the effective date of the warranty, failing which, the effective 
date will be based upon the date of manufacture plus thirty (30) days.  Any labour, material, refrigerant, 
transportation, freight or other charges incurred in connection with the performance of this warranty will be 
the responsibility of the owner at the current rates and prices then in effect.  This warranty may be transferred 
to a subsequent owner of the product. 

 

 

THIS WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER

 

 

(a) Damages caused by accident, abuse, negligence, misuse, riot, fire, flood, or Acts of God  (b) damages 
caused by operating the product in a corrosive atmosphere (c) damages caused by any unauthorized alteration 
or repair of the system affecting the product’s reliability or performance  (d) damages caused by improper 
matching or application of the product or the product’s components (e) damages caused by failing to provide 
routine and proper maintenance or service to the product (f) expenses incurred for the erecting, 
disconnecting, or dismantling the product (g) parts used in connection with normal maintenance, such as 
filters or belts  (h) products no longer at the site of the original installation  (i) products installed or operated 
other than in accordance with the printed instructions, with the local installation or building codes and with 
good trade practices (j) products lost or stolen. 

 

No one is authorized to change this WARRANTY

 or to create for or on behalf of the Company any other 

obligation or liability in connection with the Product(s).  There is no other representation, warranty or 
condition in any respect, expressed or implied, made by or binding upon the Company other than the above 
or as provided by provincial or state law and which cannot be limited or excluded by such law, nor will we 
be liable in any way for incidental, consequential, or special damages however caused. 
 
The provisions of this additional written warranty are in addition to and not a modification of or subtraction 
from the statutory warranties and other rights and remedies provided by Federal, Provincial or State laws.
