Warranty

The supplier warrants the fan motor to be free from defects in workmanship and material present at time of shipment from the factory for a life­time after the date of purchase by the original purchaser. The supplier also warrants that all other fan parts, excluding any glass or acrylic blades,
to be free from defects in workmanship and material at the time of shipment from the factory for a period of two years after the date of purchase
by the original purchaser. We agree to correct such defects without charge or at our option replace with a comparable or superior model if the
product is returned. To obtain warranty service, you must present a copy of the receipt as proof of purchase. All costs of removing and reinstalling
the product are your responsibility. Damage to any part such as by accident or misuse or improper installation or by afxing any accessories, is
not covered by this warranty. Because of varying climatic conditions this warranty does not cover any changes in brass nish, including rusting,
pitting, corroding, tarnishing, or peeling. Brass nishes of this type give their longest useful life when protected from varying weather condi­tions. A certain amount of “wobble” is normal and should not be considered a defect. Servicing performed by unauthorized persons shall render
the warranty invalid. There is no other express warranty. Home Decorators Collection hereby disclaims any and all warranties, including but not
limited to those of merchantability and tness for a particular purpose to the extent permitted by law. The duration of any implied warranty which
cannot be disclaimed is limited to the time period as specied in the express warranty. Some states do not allow a limitation on how long an im­plied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you. The retailer shall not be liable for incidental, consequential, or special damages
arising out of or in connection with product use or performance except as may otherwise be accorded by law. Some states do not allow the exclu­sion of incidental or consequential damages, so the above exclusion or limitation may not apply to you. This warranty gives specic legal rights,
and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state. This warranty supersedes all prior warranties. Shipping costs for any return of
product as part of a claim on the warranty must be paid by the customer.
