Two Year Limited Warranty
BARNSTEAD INTERNATIONAL (“BARNSTEAD”) warrants that a product manufactured by Barnstead shall be
free of defects in materials and workmanship for two (2) year from the first to occur of (i) the date the product
is sold by BARNSTEAD or (ii) the date the product is purchased by the original retail customer (the
“Commencement Date”). Except as expressly stated above, BARNSTEAD MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTY,
EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO THE PRODUCTS AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY AND
ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, WARRANTIES OF DESIGN, MERCHANT ABILITY
AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
An authorized representative of BARNSTEAD must perform all warranty inspections. In the event of a defect
covered by BARNSTEAD’s warranty, BARNSTEAD shall, as its sole obligation and exclusive remedy, provide
free replacement parts to remedy the defective product. In addition, for products sold by BARNSTEAD within
the continental United States or Canada, BARNSTEAD shall provide free labor to repair the products with the
replacement parts, but only for a period of ninety (90) days from the Commencement Date.
BARNSTEAD’s warranty provided hereunder shall be null and void and without further force or effect if there
is any (i) repair made to the product by a party other than BARNSTEAD or its duly authorized service repre-
sentative, (ii) misuse (including use inconsistent with written operating instructions for the product), mishan-
dling, contamination, overheating, modification or alteration of the product by any customer or third party or
(iii) use of replacement parts that are obtained from a party who is not an authorized dealer of BARNSTEAD.
Heating elements, because of their susceptibility to overheating and contamination, must be returned to the
BARNSTEAD factory and if, upon inspection, it is concluded that failure is due to factors other than excessive
high temperature or contamination, BARNSTEAD will provide warranty replacement. As a condition to the
return of any product, or any constituent part thereof, to BARNSTEAD’s factory, it shall be sent prepaid and a
prior written authorization from BARNSTEAD assigning a Return Materials Number to the product or part shall
be obtained.
IN NO EVENT SHALL BARNSTEAD BE LIABLE TO ANY PARTY FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL,
INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY DAMAGES RESULTING FROM LOSS OF
USE OR PROFITS, ANTICIPATED OR OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE
SALE, USE OR PERFORMANCE OF ANY PRODUCTS, WHETHER SUCH CLAIM IS BASED ON CON-
TRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), ANY THEORY OF STRICT LIABILITY OR REGULATORY
ACTION.
