What is covered under warranty:

For the first year from the date of purchase, Ardisam will furnish 100% parts and labor to correct any defect caused by faulty material or workmanship.

This warranty applies only to products which have not been repaired or altered outside our factory. It covers only defects resulting from normal use, and does not cover defects arising from misuse, alteration, negligence, or accident. This warranty applies only to the original purchaser and is nontransferable.

This warranty supersedes all other warranties either expressed or implied and all other obligations or liabilities on our part. Ardisam, Inc., does not assume, and does not authorize any other person to assume for us, any liability in connection with the sale of our products.
