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.
