Your hot water system and its com-
ponents (“Unit”) are covered by 1 year

mence one (1) month after the date of 
manufacture (refer to the data label on 
the unit).

5 Year Replacement Guarantee

If an inner cylinder fails on a Dux hot 
water unit within a further four (4) 
years after the end of the initial one (1) 
year warranty period, Dux will provide 
a free replacement hot water unit

water unit and removing and replacing 
the existing hot water unit with the 
replacement hot water unit will be 
the responsibility of the owner of the 
existing hot water unit. 

Conditions of Warranty and Re-
placement Guarantee 

The benefits provided to you by the 
warranty and replacement guarantee 
(collectively “Warranty”) are in addition 
to the guarantees and other rights and 
remedies available to you under the

If the Unit fails to conform to this 
Warranty during the applicable period, 
Dux will replace any failed component 
or where necessary, in the absolute 
discretion of Dux, replace the Unit free 
of charge including reasonable labour 
costs incurred in normal business 
working hours.
This Warranty only applies to defects 
which have arisen solely from faulty 
materials or workmanship in the Unit 
and does not apply to other defects
