9 GUaRantEE

Grant Engineering (UK) Limited guarantees the manufacture 

of the radiator for a period of 

fifteen years from the date of 

installation

, unless the installation was more than six months 

from the date of purchase, in which case the guarantee period 

will commence six months from the date of purchase, provided 

that the radiator has been installed and used in full accordance 

with the installation instructions provided. See main Terms and 

Conditions below. This does not affect your statutory rights¹.

if a fault or defect occurs within the manufacturer’s 

guarantee period

If your radiator should have a fault within the guarantee period, it 

will be covered under the terms of the guarantee, providing that 

the radiator has been correctly installed and commissioned by a 

competent person and the fault is not due to tampering, debris, 

system water contamination, misuse, trapped air or the failure of 

any external components not supplied by Grant Engineering (UK) 

Limited, e.g. motorised valves, etc.

This fifteen-year guarantee only applies if the radiator is 

installed and used in full accordance with the installation 

instructions and proof of purchase is available on request.

In the first instance

Contact your installer to ensure that the fault does not lie with the 

system operation, system components or any incorrect setting of 

the heating system or boiler/heat pump controls that falls outside 

of the manufacturer’s guarantee otherwise a service charge could 

result. Grant Engineering (UK) Limited will not be liable for any 

charges arising from this process.

if a fault covered by the manufacturer’s guarantee is found

Ask your installer to contact Grant Engineering (UK) Limited 

Service Department on +44 (0)1380 736920.

Remember - before you contact Grant Engineering (UK) 

Limited:

• 

Ensure the radiator has been installed and commissioned 

by a competent person in accordance with the installation 

instructions. 

• 

Ensure the problem is not being caused by the heating 

system or its controls. 

free of charge repairs

During the 

fifteen-year

 guarantee period no charge for parts 

will be made provided that the radiator has been installed and 

commissioned correctly in accordance with the manufacturer’s 

installation instructions. 

This guarantee does not cover any labour or associated costs 

incurred in replacing a faulty radiator.

Proof of purchase must be made available to Grant Engineering 

(UK) Limited on request.

Chargeable repairs

A charge may be made (if necessary following testing of parts) 

if the breakdown is due to any fault(s) caused by the plumbing 

or heating system, e.g. contamination of parts due to system 

contamination, sludge, scale, debris or trapped air. Refer to 

‘Extent of manufacturer’s guarantee’.
