8. WARRANTY
The equipment must be installed by a quali
fi
ed professional in accordance with best practice,
the standards, regulations and technical documents in force and the instructions in our
technical manuals.
It must be used in accordance with the instructions and regularly maintained by a specialist.
In no case will operations under the warranty confer eligibility for the payment of damages
or extend the warranty period.
In the event of a clearly established manufacturing fault or defective materials (which must
be proved by the purchaser) acknowledged by Groupe Atlantic, the manufacturer's liability
is limited to:
•
Removable boiler parts:
supplying a replacement for the part acknowledged to be faulty
including transport costs, but excluding the labour costs associated with removing and
replacing the part, for a period of two years from the date of commissioning or, failing this,
the invoice date, without exceeding a period six months longer than the time since the
manufacturing date.
Warranty periods:
Tank: 5 years (extendable to 10 years)
Removable parts: 2 years
Recommendations:
In very hard-water regions (Th>20°F), the use of a softener will not
invalidate the warranty as long as the softener is set up in accordance with standard practice
and is checked and maintained regularly. The water hardness must remain above 12°f.
The warranty does not cover faults due to causes including but not limited to:
Abnormal environmental conditions:
• Domestic water supply with particularly abnormal aggression criteria.
• Damage caused by frost, lightning or
fl
ood, faulty taps, poor ventilation and in general any
cause acknowledged to be exceptional.
Installations that do not comply with regulations, standards and best practice:
• Absence or incorrect
fi
tting of a new safety valve or safety unit complying with the standard,
changes to the unit's settings after tampering with the seal
• Abnormal corrosion due to incorrect hydraulic connection (direct iron-copper contact)
• Water pressure higher than 5 bar at the inlet to the device
Faulty maintenance:
• Abnormal scaling of safety components
• Defect resulting from abnormal use, a failure in monitoring or maintenance, deterioration
or accidents caused by negligence or operations by third parties
• Presence of aggressive vapours (chlorine, solvents etc.)
• Deterioration caused by the use of spare parts not speci
fi
ed by the manufacturer
• Poor maintenance or accidental malfunction of the safety unit resulting in excess pressure.
The provisions above do not invalidate the legal warranty covering hidden defects.
Equipment presumed to have caused damage must remain in place for inspection by
experts, and the claimant must inform his insurer.
