The limited warranty period for replacement parts, and for Fans repaired or replaced under this limited warranty, shall continue for the remainder of the original warranty period.

NO OTHER WARRANTIES: THE FOREGOING WARRANTIES ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ANY OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. NUTONE DISCLAIMS AND EXCLUDES ALL OTHER EXPRESS WARRANTIES, AND DISCLAIMS AND EXCLUDES ALL WARRANTIES IMPLIED BY LAW, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THOSE OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. TO THE EXTENT THAT APPLICABLE LAW PROHIBITS THE EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES, THE DURATION OF ANY APPLICABLE IMPLIED WARRANTY IS LIMITED TO THE PERIOD SPECIFIED FOR THE EXPRESS WARRANTY. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you. Any oral or written description of the Fan is for the sole purpose of identifying it and shall not be construed as an express warranty.

REMEDY: During the applicable limited warranty period, NuTone will, at its option, provide replacement parts for, or repair or replace, without charge, any Fan or part thereof, to the extent NuTone finds it to be covered by and in breach of this limited warranty.

Consequential damages include but are not limited to the cost of repairing or replacing other property which was damaged if the Fan does not work properly.
