VI. Warranty
10years limited product warranty, 5 years limited finish warranty
Chiko Solar Industry Co., Ltd. warrants to the original purchaser ("Purchaser") of product(s) that it
manufactures ("Product") at the original installation site that the Product shall be free from defects in
material and workmanship for a period of ten (10) years, except for the anodised finish, which finish
shall be free from visible peeling, or cracking or chalking under normal atmospheric conditions for a
period of five (5) years, from the earlier of 1) the date the installation of the Product is completed, or 2)
30 days after the purchase of the Product by the original Purchaser ("Finish Warranty").
The Finish Warranty does not apply to any foreign residue deposited on the finish. All installations in
corrosive atmospheric conditions are excluded. The Finish Warranty is VOID if the practices specified
by AAMA 609 & 610-02
– "Cleaning and Maintenance for Architecturally Finished Aluminum"
(www.aamanet.org) are not followed by Purchaser. This Warranty does not cover damage to the
Product that occurs during its shipment, storage, or installation.
This Warranty shall be VOID if installation of the Product is not performed in accordance with Chiko
Solar’s written installation instructions, or if the Product has been modified, repaired, or reworked in a
manner not previously authorized by Chiko Solar IN WRITING, or if the Product is installed in an
environment for which it was not designed. Chiko Solar shall not be liable for consequential,
contingent or incidental damages arising out of the use of the Product by Purchaser under any
circumstances.
If within the specified Warranty periods the Product shall be reasonably proven to be defective, then
Chiko Solar shall repair or replace the defective Product, or any part thereof, at Chiko Solar's sole
discretion. Such repair or replacement shall completely satisfy and discharge all of Chiko Solar's
liability with respect to this limited Warranty. Under no circumstances shall Chiko Solar be liable for
special, indirect or consequential damages arising out of or related to use by Purchaser of the
Product.
Manufacturers of related items, such as solar modules and flashings, may provide written warranties
of their own. Chiko Solar's limited Warranty covers only its Product, and not any related items.
