WARRANTY
SnapAV Surge Protector Lifetime Product Warranty
SnapAV warrants to the purchaser of any standard SnapAV surge protector that the surge protector shall be free of defects in design,
material, or workmanship, and SnapAV will repair or replace any defective unit. For product replacement, see “NOTIFICATION” below.
Lifetime Replacement Policy
Valid only in the United States and Canada. If your SnapAV surge protector becomes damaged while protecting your connected
equipment, you may request an equivalent replacement to the latest technology of that product category. Keep a copy of the original
invoice to verify the product belongs to the original purchaser.
Warning Notice
WARRANTY LIMITATION FOR INTERNET PURCHASERS:
SnapAV products purchased outside of the SnapAV internet website do not carry a valid Connected Equipment Protection Policy unless
purchased from an Authorized SnapAV Dealer.
CAUTION: Audio/Video, computer and/or telephone system installations can be very complex systems, which consist of many
interconnected components. Due to the nature of electricity and surges, a single protector may not be able to completely protect
complex installations. In those cases, a systemic approach using multiple protectors must be employed. Systemic protection requires
professional design. AC power, satellite cables, CATV cables, or telephone/network lines entering the system that do not pass through
this surge protector will render the SnapAV connected equipment protection policy null and void. For additional information on how to
protect your system, please contact SnapAV before connecting your equipment to the surge protector.
SnapAV Surge Protector Connected Equipment Protection Policy
Valid only in the United States and Canada. It is the policy of SnapAV that it will, in its sole discretion, replace, pay to replace at fair
market value, or pay to repair, up to the dollar amount specified below, equipment that is damaged by an AC power, cable, telephone,
or lightning surge while connected to a properly installed SnapAV surge protector. SnapAV must determine that the surge protector
shows signs of surge damage or is operating outside of design specifications, relative to its surge protection capability, and under all of
the circumstances failed to protect your connected equipment.
THIS POLICY IS SUBJECT TO THE CONDITIONS BELOW:
1. PROOF OF PURCHASE REQUIRED:
SnapAV’s connected equipment policy extends to the original purchaser of the SnapAV product only and is non-transferable.
Original purchase receipts must accompany any product return or claim for connected equipment damage.
2. PROPER INSTALLATION:
SnapAV AC protectors must be directly plugged into a properly grounded 3-wire AC outlet. Extension cords, non-grounded two prong
adapters, or other non-SnapAV surge products must not be used. Building wiring and other connections to protected equipment must
conform to applicable codes (NEC or CEC). No other ground wires or ground connections may be used. All wires (ie.g., AC power lines,
telephone lines, signal/data lines, coaxial cable, etc.) leading into the protected equipment must first pass through a single SnapAV
protector designed for the particular application. The protector and the equipment to be protected must be indoors in a dry location, and
in the same building. SnapAV installation instructions and diagrams must be followed.
3. NOTIFICATION:
You must notify SnapAV within fourteen days of any event precipitating a request for product replacement or payment for connected
equipment damage. A return authorization (RA) number must first be obtained from the SnapAV Customer Service Department at www.
snapav.com/support before returning the protector to SnapAV. At this time, you must notify SnapAV if you believe you have a claim for
damaged connected equipment.
Once you obtain a RA number, please mark the number on the bottom of the unit and pack it in a shipping carton/box with enough
packing material to protect it during transit. The RA number must also be clearly marked on the outside of the carton. Ship the unit to
SnapAV. Please note that you are responsible for any and all charges related to shipping the unit to SnapAV.
If connected equipment damage was indicated on your RA request, SnapAV will request the make and model of all connected
equipment, a connection diagram of your system, as well as other requests based on the extent of the request for product placement or
payment for connected equipment damage. All requests by SnapAV are to be completed and returned within 30 days. Be sure to note
its configuration before disconnecting your equipment.
