Our warranty will not apply to any product that, in our sole judgement, has been subject to negligence, misapplication, improper 
installation, or improper maintenance.  Examples that may result in denial of a warranty claim (this list is not all inclusive):
•  Damage caused by careless handling, improper repackaging, or shipping.
•  Damage due to misapplication, misuse, abuse, or failure to operate equipment as specified in the owner’s manual.
•  Damage caused by failure to install products as specified in the owner’s manual.
•  Damage due to unauthorized product modifications or failure to use Pentair original replacement parts.
•  Damage caused by negligence, or failure to properly maintain products as specified in the owner’s manual.
•  Damage caused by water freezing inside the product.
•  Accidental damage, fire, acts of God, or other circumstances outside the control of Pentair.
Without limiting the foregoing, operating a three phase motor with single phase power through a phase converter will void the 
warranty.  Note also that three phase motors must be protected by three-leg, ambient compensated, extra-quick trip overload 
relays of the recommended size or the warranty is void.

All impeller diameters specified in the BEC2 pump sizing program have been tested and determined to not exceed the service 
factor of the specified motor. Oversized impeller diameters  can be requested, however, use of an oversized impeller will void any 
warranty claims. 

Your only remedy, and BERKELEY’s only duty under this warranty, is that BERKELEY repair or replace defective products (at 
BERKELEY’s choice).  THE REMEDIES DESCRIBED HERE ARE YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES AND OUR ENTIRE LIABILITY 
FOR ANY BREACH OF THIS WARRANTY.

You must pay all labor and shipping charges associated with the warranty and must request warranty service through the installing 
dealer as soon as a problem is discovered.  No request for service will be accepted if received after the Warranty Period has 
expired.  This warranty is not transferable.  

BERKELEY’S LIABILITY SHALL UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES EXCEED THE ACTUAL AMOUNT PAID BY YOU FOR THE PRODUCT AT 
ISSUE.  BERKELEY SHALL NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, BE LIABLE FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, 
PUNITIVE, OR CONTINGENT DAMAGES OR LOSSES WHATSOEVER, WHETHER DIRECT OR INDIRECT.  THE FOREGOING WARRANTY 
IS EXCLUSIVE.  EXCEPT FOR THE WARRANTY SET FORTH HEREIN, BERKELEY MAKES NO WARRANTY WHATSOEVER WITH 
RESPECT TO THE PRODUCTS, INCLUDING, BUT NOT TO ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR 
A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED BY LAW, COURSE OF DEALING, COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, USAGE 
OF TRADE OR OTHERWISE.

THE FOREGOING WARRANTIES SHALL NOT EXTEND BEYOND THE DURATION PROVIDED HEREIN.  Some states do not allow the 
exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages or limitations on the duration of an implied warranty, so the above 
limitations or exclusions 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 is effective July 14, 2020 and replaces all undated warranties and warranties dated before July 14, 2020.
