Inspecting the unit prior to installation is the responsibility of the installer or building contractor who acts on behalf of the user. They are responsible for ensuring
the unit is free of defect or damage. Notices are placed on and in the unit and on the shipping carton advising the installer of this responsibility. In the event of
a problem, the unit must not be installed. The Company is not responsible for failures or damage that could have been discovered, repaired, or avoided by proper
inspection and testing prior to installation.
Damage occurring in transit is the responsibility of the carrier. The user or installer MUST open the crate and inspect the unit for damage when it is delivered.
If damage is discovered, it must be reported immediately to the seller and the carrier in writing, and an inspection requested. Failure of the carrier to respond should
be reported to the seller and the carrier. Your freight claims should be filed promptly thereafter.
It is the responsibility of the installer, building contractor, or user to provide access for service. The Company is not responsible for any costs relating to
obtaining access for repair. The user shall bear such costs and, if appropriate, must seek recovery from the installer.
Damage occurring to the unit during installation is the responsibility of the installer and/or building contractor and damage occurring thereafter is the
responsibility of the user.
Failure of any optional equipment is the sole responsibility of the equipment manufacturer. (Options and accessories manufactured by the Company are
warranted for ninety (90) days from the original date of purchase for parts only.)
The Distributor or Dealer is responsible for knowing local code requirements and notifying the installing contractor and/or user of these requirements at the
time of purchase. The Company is not responsible for costs to modify any product to obtain any code approval, such as city, county, or state building codes.
For the customer's benefit, the Company maintains a list of independent service personnel to perform required warranty service repairs. Such firms are not agents
or representatives of the Company and cannot bind the Company by words or conduct.
The Company will provide the warranty service described above when the following conditions have been met: the failure is of the nature or type covered
by the warranty; the user has informed an Authorized Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath Service Agent or Warranty Service Department Representative of the nature of the
problem during the warranty period; conclusive evidence (e.g., proof of purchase or installation) is provided to the foregoing by the user proving that the failure
occurred or was discovered within the warranty period; an authorized independent service person or Company representative has been permitted to inspect the
unit during regular business hours within a reasonable time after the problem was reported by the user.
