CONDITIONS APPLICABLE TO ALL SALES OF COVERED PELLA PRODUCTS AND LIMITED WARRANTIES
Limitation of Warranty.
FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH PELLA INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS VOIDS ALL WARRANTIES UNLESS
IT IS CLEARLY ESTABLISHED BY THE BUYER OR USER OF THE PRODUCT THAT THE DEFECT OR FAILURE IS UNRELATED
TO SUCH NONCOMPLIANCE. This Limited Warranty does not extend to the use of Covered Pella Products under abnormal
conditions, conditions that exceed the stated performance parameters of the product as provided on the product labeling and
in the Pella Architectural Design Manual or under conditions not reasonably foreseeable to, or beyond the control of, Pella. Buyer
and User assume all risk of any such use. This Limited Warranty is the exclusive warranty for the Covered Pella Products. NEITHER
PELLA NOR SELLER MAKES ANY OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR OTHERWISE. This disclaimer of implied warranties may be limited
or ineffective if you are a consumer, as that term is defined by the Magnuson Moss Act, 15 U.S.C. § 2301, in which case the duration
of any implied warranties shall be two (2) years from the date of sale by Pella or its authorized dealer. Some states do not allow
limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts for consumers, so the above limitation may not apply to you, in which event the
manner of presenting any claim thereon shall be the same as provided in the express warranties stated herein. This Limited Warranty
gives you specific legal rights, and you may have additional rights, which vary from state to state.
Allocation of Risks of Pella Product Performance.
Because all construction must anticipate some water infiltration, it is important that the wall system be designed and constructed to
properly manage moisture. Pella Corporation is not responsible for claims or damages caused by anticipated or unanticipated water
infiltration; deficiencies in building design, construction or maintenance; failure to install Pella products in accordance with Pella
Installation Instructions; or the use of Pella products in barrier wall systems, which do not allow for proper management of moisture
within the wall system (see the following). The determination of the suitability of all building components, including the use of Pella
products, as well as the design and installation of flashing and sealing systems, is the responsibility of Buyer or User, the architect,
contractor, installer or other construction professional, and is not the responsibility of Pella. All risks related to building design and
construction, or the maintenance, installation and use of Pella
®
products shall be assumed by Buyer and/or User.
