PRODUCT AND ITS COMPONENTS, THERMA-STOR HEREBY DISCLAIMS ALL EXPRESS AND IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE 

IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. 

Warranty Limitations.

 The foregoing limited warranty extends only to a Customer and shall be null and void upon attempted assignment or transfer. A 

“defect” under the terms of the limited warranty shall not include problems resulting from Customer’s or Customer’s employees’, agents’, invitees’ or a third 

party’s misuse, improper installation, improper design of any system in which the Product is included, abuse, lack of normal care, failure to follow written 

instructions, tampering, improper repair, or freezing, corrosion, acts of nature or other causes not arising out of defects in Therma-Stor’s workmanship 

or material. If a Product or Component is replaced while under warranty, the applicable limited warranty period shall not be extended beyond the original 

warranty time period. The limited warranty does not cover any costs related to changes to a Product or Component that may be required by any codes, laws, 

or regulations that may become effective after initial purchase of the Product by Customer. 

Customer Responsibilities.

 As a further condition to obtaining warranty coverage hereunder, the Customer must send a valid warranty claim to Therma-

Stor such that Therma-Stor receives such claim prior to the end of the applicable warranty period. Therma-Stor shall have no obligation hereunder with 

respect to any claim received by Therma-Stor after the expiration of the applicable warranty period. As a further condition to obtaining warranty coverage 

hereunder, the Customer must present forms of invoices evidencing proof of purchase of a Product. If such invoices do not clearly indicate the date of initial 

purchase by a Customer, the applicable Product’s date of manufacture will be used instead of the date of initial purchase for the purpose of calculating the 

commencement of the applicable warranty period. Warranty service must be performed by Therma-Stor or a servicer authorized by Therma-Stor. In order to 

obtain warranty service, the Customer should call Therma-Stor at 1-800-533-7533 and ask for the Therma-Stor Products Service Department, which will 

then arrange for applicable warranty service. Warranty service will be performed during customary, daytime working hours. If the Product must be shipped 

for service, Customer shall be solely responsible for properly packaging the Product, for all freight charges, and for all risk of loss associated with shipment. 

Limitation of Liability.

 IN NO EVENT SHALL THERMA-STOR, IN CONNECTION WITH THE DESIGN, SALE, INSTALLATION, USE, REPAIR, REPLACEMENT OR 

PERFORMANCE OF ANY PRODUCT, COMPONENT, PART THEREOF OR WRITTEN MATERIAL PROVIDED THEREWITH, BE LIABLE, TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED 

UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, UNDER ANY LEGAL THEORY FOR ANY SPECIAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, COLLATERAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND. 

NOTWITHSTANDING THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS AND WARRANTIES, THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE LIABILITY OF THERMA-STOR, REGARDLESS OF THE NATURE 

OR THEORY OF THE CLAIM, SHALL UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES EXCEED THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THE PRODUCT, COMPONENT OR PART UPON WHICH 

THE CLAIM IS PREMISED. 

Applicable Law and Venue.

EXCLUSIVELY IN DANE COUNTY, WISCONSIN, AND CUSTOMER CONSENTS TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE FEDERAL AND STATE COURTS LOCATED 

THEREIN, SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION THEREOF AND WAIVES THE RIGHT TO CHANGE VENUE. CUSTOMER FURTHER CONSENTS TO THE EXERCISE OF 

PERSONAL JURISDICTION BY ANY SUCH COURT WITH RESPECT TO ANY SUCH PROCEEDING. 

Miscellaneous.

 If any term or condition of this Limited Warranty is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or otherwise unenforceable, 

the same shall not affect the other terms or conditions hereof or thereof or the whole of this Limited Warranty. Any delay or failure by Therma-Stor to 

exercise any right or remedy will not constitute a waiver of Therma-Stor to thereafter enforce such rights.
