Our Products may come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You may be
entitled under statute to a replacement or refund for a major defect in the Products. You may also be entitled under
statute to have the products repaired for any defect which does not amount to a major defect. The benefits given by
this Warranty are in addition to any statutory rights and remedies you may have under Australian law.
Product Care
Clenergy Products are designed to be durable with minimal care, however it is important that you maintain your
mounting Product in accordance with proper practices. This includes regular maintenance and inspection to avoid
damage.
The aluminum components are made from either AL 6005CL-T5 or AL6005-T5 and may also have a clear anodization.
The aluminum may undergo some surface oxidization in service. Please note that this is normal and part of the natural
ageing process. The result may even be beneficial to the longevity of the Product, as the oxidization can provide
additional protection against degradation by pollution and atmospheric corrosion.
•
You should also ensure that if the Product is stored prior to installing that it is not contaminated by contact with rusty
items or other impurities such as dirt and chemicals. Should this occur, you must clean the Product and make any
repairs using approved methods such as galvanized paint and antirust treatments immediately before installation.
Steel components should be inspected before and after installation and any damage to the galvanizing should be
treated immediately to prevent rusting. It is normal for galvanized Products to develop a surface barrier (the ‘patina’),
which helps to protect the surface from contaminants in the atmosphere and does not adversely affect the Product.
•
The torque values of fastener connections on mounting system must be checked annually and corrected if needed in
accordance with Clenergy Australia’s installation manual.
•
Regular cleaning to remove any soil or other possible contaminants must also be performed. Cleaning should be
performed in accordance with guidelines recommended by the Standards Association of Australia (AS 1231-2000)
(for aluminium Products) and the Galvanizers Association of Australia (GAA) (for steel Products supplied in Australia) or
the Galvanizers Association of New Zealand (GANZ) (for steel Products supplied in New Zealand) or any other similar
organisations (as applicable). When using tin interfaces for installation works, screws not exposed to frequent rain
should be washed down with fresh water at least every 6 months.
