R.O. DRINKING WATER SYSTEM

FIVE/ONE YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY

What Does This Warranty Cover?

This warranty covers any defects in materials and workmanship of the Microline

®

 R.O. Drinking Water System 

when installed and operated within recommended parameters, with the exceptions stated below.

How Long Does The Coverage Last?

Microline

®

 will warrant its R.O. Drinking Water System (except for the reverse osmosis membrane), for a pe-

riod of five years from the date of purchase. The reverse osmosis membrane is warranted for one year from date 
of purchase. All implied warranties including merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose are limited to 
five years from the date of purchase for the R.O. Drinking Water System, except for the reverse osmosis mem-
brane which is limited to one year from date of purchase. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an 
implied warranty lasts, so the above limitations may not apply to you.

What Will Microline

®

 Do?

Microline

®

 will repair or replace at its discretion any defective component. You must pay any labor charges. You 

must also pay for shipping or travel charges to return the defective part(s).

What Does This Warranty Not Cover?

This warranty does not cover the disposable sediment and carbon filters whose service life depends on feed water 
conditions. In addition, the membrane is only warranted if the required feed water conditions are met. 

The above warranty will also not apply to any part of the Microline

®

 R.O. Drinking Water System that is dam-

aged because of neglect, misuse, alterations, accident, misapplication, physical damage, or damage caused by 
fire, acts of God, freezing or hot waters or similar causes. Consequential and incidental damages are not recov-
erable under this warranty. 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.

We recommend that you use only  authorized Microline

®

 replacement parts since improper parts or incorrectly 

performed maintenance or repair voids this warranty. In addition, if non Microline

®

 parts are used, contaminant 

reduction claims, certifications to/from NSF/ANSI Standard 58, and/or state approvals are no longer valid.

How Do You Get Service?

In order to be eligible for service under this warranty you must (a) contact your local dealer who supplied the 
unit or (b) contact the factory for the dealer nearest you.

How Does State Law Apply?

This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
