WARRANTY STATEMENT
Seller warrants the products it manufactures to be free from defects in material and workmanship for a period of
eighteen (18) months from the date of shipment from Seller’s manufacturing plant or twelve (12) months from date
of installation at the initial end users location, whichever occurs first. In addition, Seller provides the following
extended warranties: (a) three (3) years from the date of shipment on single screw compressor internal rotating
parts, (b) two (2) years from the date of shipment on reciprocating compressors and single screw and reciprocating
compressor parts, and (c) two (2) years on all other parts on a single screw compressor unit. Such warranties do not
apply to ordinary wear and tear. Seller does not warrant that the product complies with any particular law or
regulation not explicitly set forth in the specifications, and Buyer is responsible for ensuring that the product
contains all features necessary to safely perform in Buyer’s and its customer’s plants and operations. Buyer must
notify Seller of any warranty claim within ten (10) days after such claim arises, otherwise Buyer waives all rights to
such claim. Products supplied by Seller, which are manufactured by others, are not warranted by Seller, but rather
Seller merely passes through the manufacturer’s warranty to Buyer.
SELLER EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED,
INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICU-
LAR PURPOSE.
Unless otherwise agreed in writing, Buyer’s sole remedy for breach of warranty is, at Seller’s option, the repair of
the defect, the correction of the service, or the providing a replacement part FOB Seller’s office. Seller will not be
responsible for costs of dismantling, lost refrigerant, reassembling, or transporting the product. Further, Seller will
not be liable for any other direct, indirect, consequential, incidental, or special damages arising out of a breach of
warranty. THESE WARRANTY REMEDIES ARE EXCLUSIVE AND ALL OTHER WARRANTY REM-
EDIES ARE EXCLUDED. Products or parts for which a warranty claim is made are to be returned transportation
prepaid to Seller’s factory. Any improper use, corrosion, neglect, accident, operation beyond rated capacity, substi-
tution of parts not approved by Seller, or any alteration or repair by others which, in Seller’s judgement, adversely
affects the Product, shall void all warranties and warranty obligations. Further, Seller shall not be liable under the
above warranties should Buyer be in default of its payment obligations to Seller under this Agreement or any credit
agreement.
