In General. As provided by the terms in this limited warranty (“Limited Warranty”), Steinbach & Associates, Inc. (“Steinbach”) hereby warrants each part or kit (the “Product”) sold on this website to be free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of one-year from the purchase date and is effective until the one-year anniversary of that date as provided by the terms of this Limited Warranty. This Limited Warranty is for the benefit of the original Buyer only and terminates upon transfer of the Product from the original Buyer to any other person or entity. This Limited Warranty does not include labor or installation costs and the amount of this Limited Warranty is limited to the price paid for the Product by Buyer.

- Improper, dangerous, or destructive maintenance procedures,
- Use in conjunction with any unapproved device,
- Installation in an environment that is corrosive or otherwise destructive to the Product, whether internal or external,

Terms of Limited Warranty. The following conditions must be met for this Limited Warranty to apply: (1) upon discovery of the defect, Buyer must contact Steinbach regarding the nature of the defect; (2) at Steinbach’s sole discretion, Buyer must either provide documentation or mail the Product to Steinbach; and (3) Steinbach determines that the Product was defective. If Steinbach determines that the item is defective, then Steinbach will ship Buyer a replacement for the defective Product and will not invoice Buyer for the cost of the replacement item or the shipping cost of the replacement item and will reimburse Buyer for any reasonable shipping costs incurred by Buyer in shipping the defective Product to Steinbach (if Steinbach requested Buyer to ship the Product back to Steinbach) upon receipt by Steinbach of proof of such costs. If Steinbach determines that the Product is not defective and Buyer wants a replacement for the Product, Steinbach will ship Buyer a replacement for the Product and invoice Buyer the cost of the replacement item and the shipping paid by Steinbach for the shipping of the replacement item.
Limitation of Remedies. The sole remedy for this Limited Warranty is that Steinbach will provide a one-time replacement of the Product that is determined to be defective by Steinbach with another item that is the same or substantially similar to the Product.

Shipping for replacement items shipped outside of those locations will be subject to a surcharge paid for by Buyer.
