Warranty and Terms of Purchase:

 

This Terms of Purchase Agreement sets forth UHI Worldwide Inc.’s (“UHI”) standards for the advertising, marketing, distribution, or use of its products.  By implementation of any and all procurement order and/or completion of monetary transaction against an Invoice for UHI products, you and/or your Company (the “Purchaser”) agree to these terms and conditions.  If you do not agree to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, you should immediately cease all use and/or purchase of UHI’ s products. 

 

Limited Warranty.

All UltraHeat brand of RV Heaters and heating items we manufacture carry a limited warranty under normal use against manufacturing defects from workmanship and material defects for up to one (1) year from the date of original purchase.  This Limited Warranty covers only those defects which occur or exist within the one (1) year period referenced above.  Any modification of UHI products, from original design and/or intended use, or improper installation shall VOID all warranties.

 

As of July 01, 2019; UltraHeat RV dedicated heat panels purchased will have their Limited Warranty expanded to the period of Life Time once registered online.

 

A stated exception in the stated warranty;  Loss of product adhesion, while the proprietary adhesives used in UltraHeat’s panels are designed to last for decades, proper installation surface preparation is solely in the hands of the installer and outside of the control of UHI.  Even if properly dressed, the mounting surface itself may undergo continuing change that could affect the adhesive properties.  “Goodwill” replacement of the product under this issue is at the sole consideration of UHI.  

If any item is deemed to be covered under the Limited Warranty, UHI’s obligations are limited to replacing the item itself at no additional cost.

 

An RGA (Returned Goods Authorizing) number is required prior, for all items returned for warranty consideration.  Issuance of an RGA does not constitute an automatic issuance of credit or replacement; it allows the tracking of items being returned for testing and inspection.  Returned items must include the original product label attached with the serial number clearly legible, along with a copy of the original sales recept.
