Broan Ventilation Fan/Lights - Limited Warranty
WARRANTY PERIOD: Broan warrants to the original consumer purchaser of its Broan Ventilation Fan/light (the "Fan")
that your Fan (excluding lamps/bulbs) will be materially free from defects in materials or workmanship for a period of
three (3) years from the date of original purchase. The warranty on the lamps/bulbs provided with the Fan is one (1) year
and does not cover lamp/bulb breakage. This warranty does not cover accessories, such as speed controls, that may be
purchased separately and installed with the Fan.
The limited warranty period for replacement parts, and for Fans repaired or replaced under this limited warranty, shall
continue for the remainder of the original warranty period.
NO OTHER WARRANTIES: THE FOREGOING WARRANTIES ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ANY OTHER
WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. BROAN DISCLAIMS AND EXCLUDES ALL OTHER EXPRESS WARRANTIES,
AND DISCLAIMS AND EXCLUDES ALL WARRANTIES IMPLIED BY LAW, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THOSE
OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. TO THE EXTENT THAT APPLICABLE LAW
PROHIBITS THE EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES, THE DURATION OF ANY APPLICABLE IMPLIED WARRANTY
IS LIMITED TO THE PERIOD SPECIFIED FOR THE EXPRESS WARRANTY. Some states do not allow limitations on how
long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you. Any oral or written description of the Fan
is for the sole purpose of identifying it and shall not be construed as an express warranty.
REMEDY: During the applicable limited warranty period, Broan will, at its option, provide replacement parts for, or
repair or replace, without charge, any Fan or part thereof, to the extent Broan finds it to be covered by and in breach
of this limited warranty. Broan will ship the repaired or replaced Fan or replacement parts to you at no charge. You
are responsible for all costs for removal, reinstallation and shipping, insurance or other freight charges incurred in the
shipment of the Fan or part to Broan. This warranty does not cover (a) normal maintenance and service, (b) normal
wear and tear, (c) any Fans or parts which have been subject to misuse, abuse, abnormal usage, negligence, accident,
improper or insufficient maintenance, storage or repair (other than repair by Broan), (d) damage caused by faulty
installation, or installation or use contrary to recommendations or instructions, (e) any Fan that has been moved from its
original point of installation, (f) damage caused by environmental or natural elements, (g) damage in transit, (h) natural
wear of finish, (i) Fans in commercial or nonresidential use, or (j) damage caused by fire, flood or other act of God. This
warranty covers only Fans sold in the United States or Canada or through distributors authorized by Broan.
EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES: BROAN'S OBLIGATION TO PROVIDE REPLACEMENT PARTS, OR REPAIR OR REPLACE, AT
BROAN'S OPTION, SHALL BE YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY UNDER THIS LIMITED WARRANTY AND BROAN'S
SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE OBLIGATION. BROAN SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL
OR SPECIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE FAN, ITS USE OR PERFORMANCE. Incidental
damages include but are not limited to such damages as loss of time and loss of use. Consequential damages include
but are not limited to the cost of repairing or replacing other property which was damaged if the Fan does not work
properly.
Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or
exclusion may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights, which
vary from state to state.
This warranty supersedes all prior warranties and is not transferable from the original consumer purchaser.
BROAN SHALL NOT BE LIABLE TO YOU, OR TO ANYONE CLAIMING UNDER YOU, FOR ANY OTHER OBLIGATIONS
OR LIABILITIES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, OBLIGATIONS OR LIABILITIES ARISING OUT OF BREACH OF
CONTRACT OR WARRANTY, NEGLIGENCE OR OTHER TORT OR ANY THEORY OF STRICT LIABILITY, WITH RESPECT
TO THE FAN OR BROAN'S ACTS OR OMISSIONS OR OTHERWISE.
This warranty covers only replacement or repair of defective Fans or parts thereof at Broan's main facility and does not
include the cost of field service travel and living expenses.
Any assistance Broan provides to or procures for you outside the terms, limitations or exclusions of this limited warranty
will not constitute a waiver of such terms, limitations or exclusions, nor will such assistance extend or revive the warranty.

those incurred with Broan's prior written permission.
