Warranty Terms
What this Limited Warranty Covers and Does Not Cover
Our products are warranted to the original purchaser to be free of manufacturing defects in material and workmanship for the warranty period, as outlined below, from the date of your purchase.
OUR RESPONSIBILITY UNDER THIS LIMITED WARRANTY FOR DEFECTIVE GOODS IS LIMITED AS OUTLINED BELOW. THIS LIMITED WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS, AND YOU MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS THAT VARY BY STATE.

For our Limited Warranty for Parts and Labor, our obligation is limited to the repair or replacement, in our sole discretion, of a product or part that proves, by our sole examination, to be defective, due to a manufacturing defect, under normal residential use and service during the warranty period. If a product is no longer available, replacement may be made with a similar product or part of equal or greater value, in our sole discretion. Where we select to repair a product, our obligation is limited to repair costs up to a maximum of $200 USD (“Cap”), including any replacement parts and labor costs, and limited to one Cap for each product; this may not cover costs to fully replace the product. If we elect to repair or replace the defective product or part, you are responsible for all costs for removal, reinstallation and labor, return shipping, insurance, and other charges incurred; but we will pay for shipping and handling fees to send the repaired or replacement product/part to you and for repair costs up to the Cap if we elect to repair. We are not responsible for any damage incurred in transit. We reserve the right to use refurbished, repaired, or remanufactured products or parts in any warranty repair or replacement process. Such products and parts will be comparable in function and performance to an original product or part and warranted for the remainder of the initial warranty period. We reserve the right to alternatively refund the money actually paid by you for defective range hoods or parts; we will not issue a refund for defective ranges but will repair or replace it subject to these terms. The warranty period is not extended if we repair or replace a product/part or issue a refund. Ranges must be installed by a qualified certified/licensed technician to qualify for this Limited Warranty; and you agree to produce supporting documentation if requested. For burners, our obligation is limited to sending a replacement for a defective burner; we will not send a technician or pay other costs to repair or reinstall the burner. A lifetime for a motor or burner means the standard time of expected service under normal residential use with proper maintenance. We may change these terms in our sole discretion, but any changes will not be retroactive. Third-party Extend may sell additional extended warranties, which are not covered by this Limited Warranty; we are not a party to Extend’s terms with you.
Any failure of the product that is not traceable to a defect in material or workmanship is not covered by this warranty. These non-warrantable items include, but are not limited to:
- Any defects or damage to light bulbs;
- Change in color or finish due to chemical usage;
- Improper installation not in accordance with the instructions or these terms;
- Dents, bumps, and scratches incurred during shipping, handling, or installation;
- Damage caused by failure to follow care and cleaning guidelines, including damage caused by the use of abrasive cleaners, or by unauthorized repair or use;
- Alterations made to the unit/product by the purchaser or installer;
- Damage caused by accidental impact, fire, flood, freezing;
- Normal wear and tear (whether a defect is attributable to "normal wear and tear" will be determined at our reasonable and good faith discretion), and/or;
- Bends and warping caused by forced connections, over-tightened fittings, or inadequate support.
A thorough inspection must be made before installation, and any damage must be promptly reported. We will not be liable for any failure or damage that could have been discovered or avoided by proper inspection or testing prior to installation. Incidental repairs that would involve a minimum amount of time and effort for the purchaser will not be considered warranty work, and no compensation will be deemed forthcoming. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, we will not be liable for any inconvenience caused by any loss of use of the product or any other incidental or consequential damages; and we will not be liable for personal injury or property damage resulting from improper installation or use of the product. This Limited Warranty does not extend to commercial or institutional installation or use. This Limited Warranty is non-transferable and shall be voided if the product is removed from its initial installation or if it is not installed following the instructions. This Limited Warranty does not extend to any subsequent owner or other transferee of the product.
