Other Limitations
1. is Warranty covers only genuine Cellwood Vinyl Siding, Vinyl Sot and Vinyl Accessories. It is your
responsibility to verify that the siding, sot and accessories installed are our Products.
2. Due to normal weathering, replacement Products may dier in gloss and color from Products originally
installed on the Property.
3. We reserve the right to discontinue or change any design or color of any of our products at any time and
without notice or liability. If, for any reason, Products of the type originally installed are no longer available
from us at the time you make a warranty claim, we may substitute another product determined by us to be of
comparable quality and price.
4. ere are no warranties on this Product other than as set forth in this Warranty. We are not liable to you for a
breach of any other written or oral express warranties, such as those, if any, given to you by dealers, contractors,
applicators or distributors of the Products.
5. ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES IMPOSED BY LAW, SUCH AS THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE LIMITED IN TIME TO
THE DURATION OF THIS EXPRESS WARRANTY.
6. WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES
associated with any breach of any express, written, oral or implied warranty on the Products. Your
EXCLUSIVE REMEDY for any breach of warranty is as set forth in this Warranty.
7. is Warranty gives you specic legal rights. You may also have other rights, which vary from state to
state. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES AND SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW
LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION MAY
NOT APPLY TO YOU.
ese Denitions Apply To the Terms Used:
COVERAGE means the extent of our commitment to respond to any claim relating to the siding.
EXCESSIVE COLOR FADE means a change in the color of any siding in excess of a Delta E of four Hunter
units, as determined by us, following the initial installation of the siding, provided that any uneven or abnormal
fade distribution is not due to a buildup or accumulation of stains, dirt, mold, mildew or any other deciency
caused by the lack of at least an annual preventative maintenance by the homeowner as such annual preventative
maintenance is described in the Cellwood Installation Manual. Note: Because there is not an objective industry
standard for measuring even color change on variegated color panels, the excessive color fade warranty coverage
does not apply to variegated siding and accessories. In addition, the excessive color fade warranty does not apply
to custom colors of siding and accessories.
FIRST-TIME TRANSFEREE means the rst individual, person or entity to which any interest of the
initial purchaser in the building on which the siding is initially installed or in the siding itself is voluntarily
or involuntarily conveyed, transferred or assigned, whether by gift, sale or operation of law, after the initial
installation of the siding.
PURCHASE AND INSTALLATION PRICE means the sum of (a) the total original cost of the siding that is
defective or otherwise being replaced, plus (b) the total original cost of labor for the installation of siding that
is defective or otherwise being replaced. If we cannot determine these amounts from original documents, we
will compute the purchase and installation price using (i) our suggested retail price in eect at the time of the
installation for the cost of material, (ii) labor rates prevailing in the area where the building is located at the time
of installation and (iii) an estimated installation time for the cost of labor.
RESIDENCE means regular or full-time permanent lodging by a single family.
WEATHERING means changes caused by exposure to sunlight, rain, air pollution, variations in temperature
and other atmospheric conditions.
