purposes, which may vary from those in neighboring areas. While AirKing attempts to assure that its products comply with such codes, it cannot guarantee compliance,
and cannot be responsible for how the product is installed or used. Before purchase and use of a product, please review the product application, and national and
local codes and regulations, and be sure that the product, installation, and use will comply with them.Certain aspects of disclaimers are not applicable to consumer
products; e.g., (a) some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to
you; (b) also, some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, consequently the above limitation may not apply to you; and (c) by law, during
the period of the Limited Warranty, and implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose applicable to consumer products purchased by
