WARRANTY TERMS AND CONDITIONS

PRODUCT WARRANTY: 2-YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY

Ardisam, Inc. (Ardisam), a manufacturing company, warrants this product to be free from defects in the material or workmanship 

for a period of two years from the date of purchase. If there is insufficient evidence of the purchase date, the effective date of this 

warranty will begin on the pump’s date of manufacture. During the two-year warranty of this product, Ardisam will furnish, at their 

discretion, parts and labor to correct any defect caused by faulty material or workmanship. Ardisam reserves the right to inspect 

any incoming units returned under warranty to determine if the warranty applies before performing any warranty related work 

(including parts and components). Any unit used in a commercial application is covered for a period of 90 days after purchase. 

This warranty applies to the original owner with a proof of purchase and is not transferable. For the warranty to be valid, the 

product must be registered online, or the warranty card must be filled out and received by Ardisam, within 30 days of purchase.

This warranty excludes:

• 

Wear items such as filter elements, O-rings, impeller, and seals.

• 

Accessory parts such as hoses, intake strainer, and connectors.

•

•

*These warranties apply only to products which have not been subjected to negligent use, abuse, misuse (including the use 

of this pump in place of your well or water utility), overload, improper installation, alteration, accident, acts of God (or other 

events beyond Ardisam’s control), unauthorized parts, failure to use proper fuel and oil, or if repairs have been performed at a 

non-authorized service facility. These warranties shall not cover damage from normal wear and tear, normal maintenance parts 

and services, lightning; nor improper installation, operation, storage, or maintenance; nor operating the equipment above 

recommended maximums as stated in this manual and the accompanying engine manual. These warranties supersede all other

rights which vary from state to state and country to country.
