Subject to the terms and conditions of this Limited Warranty, Viega LLC (Viega) warrants to end users,
installers and distribution houses that its Viega metal press products (Viega product) when properly
installed in industrial and marine applications shall be free from failure caused by manufacturing defects
for a period of two (2) years from date of installation. For purposes of this warranty, industrial applications
are defined as non residential and non commercial applications not normally accessible to the general
public. Marine applications are defined as mobile structures used to navigate water or stationary structures
in water.
Under this Limited Warranty, you only have a right to a remedy if the failure or leak resulted from a
manufacturing defect in the Viega product and the failure or leak occurs during the warranty period. You
do not have a remedy under this warranty and the warranty remedy does not apply if the failure or any
resulting damage is caused by (1) components other than those sold by Viega; (2) not designing, installing,
inspecting, testing, or maintaining the Viega product in accordance with Viega’s installation and product
instructions in effect at the time of installation and other specifications and approvals applicable to the
installation; (3) improper handling and protection of the Viega product prior to, during and after installation,
inadequate freeze protection, or exposure to environmental or operating conditions not recommended
for the application; or (4) acts of nature, such as, but not limited to earthquakes, fire, or weather damage.
Final approval as to use compatibility to a specific process or fluid application is the responsibility of the
engineer of record or responsible design/facilities personnel and this Limited Warranty only applies to
manufacturing defects in the Viega Product.
In the event of a leak or other failure in the Viega product covered by this warranty, it is the responsibility of
the end user to take appropriate measures to diminish any damage, to include making timely repairs. Only
if the warranty applies will Viega be responsible for the remedy under this warranty. The part or parts which
you claim failed should be kept and Viega contacted by writing to the address below or telephoning
1-800-976-9819 within thirty (30) calendar days after the leak or other failure and identifying yourself as
having a warranty claim. You should be prepared to ship, at your expense, the product which you claim
failed due to a manufacturing defect, document the date of installation, and the amount of the repair
or replacement if performed by you. Within a reasonable time after receiving the product, Viega will
investigate the reasons for the failure, which includes the right to inspect the product at a Viega location
and reasonable access to the site of damage. Viega will notify you in writing as to the results of its review.
In the event that Viega determines that the failure or leak was the result of a manufacturing defect in
the Viega Product covered by this warranty and to which this warranty applies, the EXCLUSIVE AND
ONLY REMEDY under this warranty shall be the reimbursement for reasonable charges for repair
or replacement of the Viega Product itself. VIEGA SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR CONSEQUENTIAL
OR OTHER DAMAGE (FOR EXAMPLE, ECONOMIC LOSS, WATER OR PROPERTY OR MOLD
REMEDIATION) UNDER ANY LEGAL THEORY AND WHETHER ASSERTED BY DIRECT ACTION, FOR
CONTRIBUTION OR INDEMNITY OR OTHERWISE.
THE ABOVE WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING,
BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR ANY STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS RELATING TO
SUCH WARRANTIES. Other than this Limited Warranty, Viega does not authorize any person or firm to
create for it any other obligation or liability in connection with its products.
This Limited Warranty gives you specific legal rights and you also may have other rights which may vary
from state to state. This warranty shall be interpreted and applied under the law of the state in which the
product is installed and is intended as a Commercial Warranty.
