Warranty
This de-icer is warranted for a period of 3 years from the date of purchase. If you
believe your de-icer is defective and still within the warranty period, return it to the
factory or place of purchase for inspection and possible replacement. The warranty
is voided if (1) the ground terminal on the plug has been removed, (2) excessive
deposits have been allowed to accumulate on the heating element, or (3) there is
evidence of general abuse such as animals chewing on the cord. This warranty does
not cover incidental or consequential damage resulting from either a defect in parts,
materials, or operation failure. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of
the above damages so the above limitation may not apply to you. No agent, employee,
or representative of Allied Precision has any authority to bind Allied Precision to any
affirmation, representation or warranty directed towards any products bearing the
Allied Precision name, except as stated herein. This warranty gives you specific legal
rights; you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
