Lifetime Warranty

For as long as you own the equipment

RainSoft Division of Aquion, Inc. believing its

WATER TREATMENT SYSTEM

to be of exceptional quality, hereby warrants said equipment to its first purchaser at retail as follows:

The treatment tank, valve, salt container, electrical components and resins Ion-X 2000 and Ion X-
100 are warranted against defects in manufacture for the lifetime of the first purchaser at retail.

This warranty begins at the time the equipment is first connected for use, and is contingent upon the return of a signed
owner's registration card.

This warranty does not require replacement of the entire unit. If the equipment does not perform properly, you should
request  service  from  the  dealer  that  sold  you  the  equipment.  If  you  are  not  satisfied,  you  should  notify  our  Customer
Service Manager. If we are not able to arrange local servicing, you should send the defective part(s) (or, if you prefer, send
the entire unit,) directly to the manufacturer, freight prepaid, with proof of purchase and a copy of this warranty. The
defective part(s) (or entire unit) will either be repaired or new RainSoft part(s) furnished, for a nominal charge to cover
labor,  handling,  packing  and  the  increase,  if  any,  in  the  retail  price  of  the  part(s)  since  the  date  of  purchase.  Genuine
RainSoft parts must be used. Failure to use genuine RainSoft parts will void the warranty and certifications.

This warranty does not include labor charges, and does not cover installation, transportation, or any other claims or torts.
Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so parts of the above limita-
tion or exclusion 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. You also
have implied warranty rights. In the event of a problem with warranty service or performance, you may be able to go to
a small claims court, a State court, or a Federal District Court.

This warranty is void if equipment is not installed and operated according to instructions. It does not apply to damage
caused  by  abuse,  accident,  neglect,  freezing,  fire,  or  other  abnormal  conditions  beyond  the  company’s  control.  This
warranty is void on any part from which the manufacturing date has been removed or made illegible.

Benefits will be provided by various types of RainSoft equipment when installed and operated according to the manufac-
turer's  recommendations.  Operational,  maintenance  and  replacement  requirements  are  essential  for  the  product  to
perform as advertised. All claims are based on the best available information at the time of printing. Manufacturer makes
no representations as to the suitability of this equipment for a particular application. Buyer relies entirely on the dealer's
recommendations in the purchase of this equipment. 

Independent  RainSoft  dealers  may  include,  together  with  your  RainSoft  product,  a  product  or  component  that  is  not
manufactured  by  RainSoft  or  their  parent  company,  Aquion,  Inc.  Any  non-RainSoft  product  may  be  covered  by  the
manufacturer  of  that  product,  and  is  not  covered  by  the  RainSoft  warranty.  Aquion,  Inc.  does  not  warrant  that  your
RainSoft product and the non-RainSoft product will perform properly when used together, and assumes no liability there-
fore.
