Pre-Installation
Receiving Inspection
When the unit arrives, verify the information on the
unit nameplate agrees with the order
acknowledgement and shipping papers. Inspect the
equipment for any visible damage and verify all
items shown on the bill of lading are present. If
damage is evident, document it on the delivery
receipt by clearly marking any item with damage as
“unit damage” and notify the carrier. In addition,
notify our Customer Service Department and they
will provide assistance with preparing and filing
freight damage claims, including arranging for an
estimate on repair costs; however, filing the shipping
damage claim is the responsibility of the receiving
party. Do not install damaged equipment without
getting the equipment repaired.
Shipping damage is the responsibility of the carrier.
To protect against possible loss due to damage
incurred during shipping and to expedite payment
for damages, it is important to follow proper
procedures and keep records. Photographs of
damaged equipment are excellent documentation
for your records.
Start unpacking the unit, inspect for concealed
damage, and take photos of any damage found.
Once received, equipment owners have the
responsibility to provide reasonable evidence that
the damage did not occur after delivery. Photos of
the equipment damage while the equipment is still
partially packed will help in this regard. Refrigerant
lines can be susceptible to damage in transit. Check
for broken lines, oil leaks, damaged controls, or any
other major component torn loose from its
mounting point.
Record any signs of concealed damage and file a
shipping damage claim immediately with the
shipping company. Most carriers require concealed
damages be reported within 15 days of receipt of
the equipment. In addition, notify our Customer
Service Department and they will provide assistance
with preparing and filing freight damage claims,
including arranging for an estimate on repair costs;
however, filing the shipping damage claim is the
responsibility of the receiving party.
