NUPI/NIRON LIMITED WARRANTY:

Nupi Americas warrants that products sold by it which are included in its NIRON Piping System shall be of good materials and workmanship and free from functional defects for a period of thirty (30) years from the date of sale, excepting valves, gaskets and o- rings; products other than pipes and fittings shall be of good materials and workmanship and free from functional defects for a period of one (1) year from the date of sale; provided that such products are properly installed in accordance with the specifications and published instructions of Nupi Americas by qualified installers who have been trained and certified by Nupi Americas or its authorized representatives. These respective warranties shall become immediately null and void if the products to which they apply: (i) are employed in applications not recommended by Nupi Americas; (ii) are installed by anyone other than an installer trained by Nupi Americas or its authorized representatives; or (iii) are installed in a manner which fails to comply with written installation instructions of Nupi Americas.

In the event of a system malfunction or leak caused by defective Nupi Americas’ warranted materials (and not by incorrect installation, incorrect handling procedures or by job site or installation damage), a reasonable amount will be allowed for repair materials and repair labor as long as the amount is preapproved by Nupi Americas. In order to qualify for a warranty remedy described in the previous sentence, you must contact Nupi Americas in advance and receive a written authorization for this remedy from an authorized Nupi Americas’ representative. Repair materials, repair labor and freight expenses not authorized in writing in advance by Nupi Americas in this way will not be compensated. In the event of a leak occurring in a factory manifold, you may contact Nupi Americas for either a free replacement manifold or any parts that are reasonably needed to repair such a leak (freight prepaid). Note that Nupi Americas limits its warranty to its piping, valves and accessories, fittings and manifolds. Nupi Americas does not warrant the connection on any installation, as the integrity of the connection is subject to the workmanship of the contractor/installer. The connection is the sole responsibility of the company or person who installs it.

Evidence of tampering, mishandling, neglect, accidental damage, freeze damage or unauthorized repairs that cause damage to Nupi Americas’ warranted products will void any warranty coverage for those particular products. All field connections are specifically excluded from the terms of this warranty.

Nupi Americas provides a complete plumbing system offering so that it is possible to complete an installation with Nupi Americas’ products. However, it is possible that other manufacturers’ piping and/or fittings may be installed in any given installation. Providing that the piping and/or fittings are manufactured to the same ASTM and CSA standards governing Niron’s products, and have been certified by a recognized third-party testing agency, the NIRON product in the given installation will continue to be covered under this warranty. In the event of a system malfunction or leak that has other piping and/or fitting manufacturers’ components installed within the failed system, Nupi Americas will be responsible only for proven defects in material or workmanship in the Nupi Americas products. Products manufactured by another company should be reported to that manufacturer for its warranty response. These limited warranties are in lieu of all other warranties, express or implied, including, without limitation, those concerning merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. These limited warranties are also in lieu of any other possible liabilities of Nupi Americas, whether alleged to have arisen by agreement or by operation of law, respecting the sale, installation, use or function of Nupi Americas’ products, including, without limitation, claims of negligence, gross negligence, strict liability or any other tort.
