AS AMERICA, INC. LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY
FOR STAINLESS STEEL SINKS
AS America, Inc. (“American Standard
®
”) warrants to the original
consumer purchaser of an American Standard
®
stainless steel
sink that it will, at its option, repair or replace such product if
it is found by American Standard
®
, in its sole judgment, to be
defective under normal residential use, provided that it has
been installed and maintained in accordance with American
Standard
®
’s instructions. This limited warranty applies only to
the initial installation and is not transferable from the original
consumer purchaser. In the event of a limited warranty claim,
proof of purchase will be required – save sales receipt.
This limited warranty does not apply to commercial installations.
The warranty for commercial installations is three (3) years.
This limited lifetime warranty DOES NOT COVER the following:
1. Defects or damages arising from shipping, installation,
alterations, accidents, abuse, misuse, environmental factors,
lack of proper maintenance and use of other than genuine
American Standard
®
replacement parts, in all cases whether
caused by a plumbing contractor, service company, the owner
or any other person.
2. Deterioration through normal wear and tear and the expense of
normal maintenance.
3. Commercial application.
4. Options and accessories. American Standard
®
’s limited
warranty on these items is one year for parts only. This one
year limited warranty covers accessories manufactured
by American Standard
®
against defects of material or
workmanship. Limited warranty coverage begins on the date
the accessory was originally purchased by the owner.
5. Postage or shipping costs for returning products for repairs
or replacement under this limited warranty and labor or
other costs incurred in connection with product removal or
installation under this limited warranty.
6. ANY LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL
DAMAGES, INCLUDING LABOR, ALL OF WHICH ARE
HEREBY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMED, OR THE EXTENSION
BEYOND THE DURATION OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY OF
ANY IMPLIED LIMITED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THOSE
OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR AN INTENDED
PURPOSE. IN NO EVENT WILL AMERICAN STANDARD
®
BE LIABLE FOR THE COST OF REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT
OF ANY INSTALLATION MATERIALS INCLUDING BUT NOT
LIMITED TO TILES, MARBLE ETC. (Some jurisdictions do not
allow limitations on how long an implied limited warranty lasts,
or the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential
damages, so these limitations and exclusions may not apply
to you.)
7. Responsibility for compliance with local code requirements.
(Since local code requirements vary greatly distributors,
retailers, dealers, installation contractors and users of plumbing
products should determine whether there are any code
restrictions on the installation or use of a specific product.)
This limited warranty gives you specific legal rights. You may
have other statutory rights that vary from state to state or from
province to province, in which case this limited warranty does not
affect such statutory rights.
