The following terms are common to all of RUUD AIR CONDITIONING DIVISION'S individual product warranties:

THIS WARRANTY WILL NOT APPLY: a) to defects or malfunctions resulting from failure to properly install, operate or maintain the unit in accordance with the manufacturer's printed instructions; b) to damage from abuse, accident, fire, flood and the like; c) to parts used in connection with normal maintenance, such as cleaning or replacing air filters; d) to units which are not installed in the United States of America or Canada; e) to units which are not installed in accordance with applicable local codes, ordinances and good trade practices; f) to defects or damage caused by the use of any attachment, accessory or component not authorized by RUUD; or g) to units manufactured under the Corsaire label.

SHIPPING COSTS: The homeowner will be responsible for the cost of shipping warranty replacement parts from our factory to our RUUD distributor and from the distributor to the location of your product. You also are responsible for any shipping cost of returning the failed part to the distributor. (If in Alaska, Hawaii or Canada, you also must pay the shipping cost of returning the failed part to the port of entry into the continental United States.)

SERVICE LABOR RESPONSIBILITY: This warranty does not cover any labor expenses for service, nor for removing or reinstalling parts. All such expenses are your responsibility, unless a service labor agreement exists between you and your contractor.

HOW TO OBTAIN WARRANTY PERFORMANCE: You must promptly report any failure covered by this warranty to the installing contractor or distributor. Normally, the installing contractor from whom the unit was purchased will be able to take the necessary corrective action by obtaining through his RUUD air conditioning distributor any replacement parts. If the contractor is not available, simply contact any other local contractor handling RUUD air conditioning products.

The name and location of a local contractor can usually be found in your telephone directory or by contacting a RUUD air conditioning distributor. If necessary, the following RUUD office can advise you of the nearest RUUD distributor:

5600 Old Greenwood Road, Fort Smith, Arkansas 72903
1-800-848-RUUD

HOWEVER, ANY REPLACEMENTS ARE MADE SUBJECT TO VALIDATION BY RUUD OF IN-WARRANTY COVERAGE. An item to be replaced must be made available in exchange for the replacement.

MISCELLANEOUS: No one is authorized to make any warranties on behalf of RUUD. ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, SHALL NOT EXTEND BEYOND THE APPLICABLE WARRANTY PERIODS SPECIFIED ABOVE. RUUD'S SOLE LIABILITY WITH RESPECT TO DEFECTIVE PARTS SHALL BE AS SET FORTH IN THIS WARRANTY, AND ANY CLAIMS FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARE EXPRESSLY EXCLUDED. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, or for the exclusion of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.

This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
