All sales by Structural Concepts Corporation (SCC) are subject to the following limited warranty. “Goods” refers to the product or products being sold by SCC.
Warranty; Remedies; Limitations. SCC warrants that if any Goods are found by an authorized representative of SCC not to be of good material or workmanship
within one year of the date of shipments SCC will, at its option after inspection by an authorized representative, replace any defective Good or pay the reasonable
cost of replacement for any such defective Goods, provided that written notice of the defect is given to SCC within 30 days of the appearance of such defect. If
notice is not given within such period, any claim for breach of warranty shall be conclusively deemed to have been waived and SCC shall not be liable under this
warranty. If SCC is unable to repair or replace the defective Goods, SCC shall issue a credit to the Purchaser for all or part of the purchase price, as SCC shall
determine. The replacement or payment in the manner described above shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of Purchaser for a breach of this warranty. If any
Goods are defective or fail to conform to this warranty, SCC will furnish instructions for their disposition. No Goods shall be returned to SCC without its prior con-
sent.
SCC’s liability for any defect in the Goods shall not exceed the purchase price of the Goods. SCC SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY TO PURCHASE FOR CONSE-
QUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE, LOST PROFITS, OR
OTHER ECONOMIC INJURY DUE TO ANY DEFECT IN THE GOODS OR ANY BREACH OF SCC, SCC SHALL NOT BE LIABLE TO THE PURCHASER IN
TORT FOR ANY NEGLIGENT DESIGN OR MANUFACTURE OF THE GOODS, OR FOR THE OMISSION OF ANY WARNING THEREFROM.
SCC shall have no obligation or liability under this warranty for claims arising from any other party’s (including Purchaser’s) negligence or misuse of the Goods or
environmental conditions. This warranty does not apply to any claim or damage arising for or cause by improper storage, handling, installation, maintenance, or
from fire, flood, accidents, structural defects, building settlement or movement, acts of God, or other causes beyond SCC’s control.
Except as expressly stated herein, SCC makes no warranty, express, implied, statutory or otherwise as to any parts or goods not manufactured by SCC. SCC
shall warrant such parts or Goods only (I) against such defects, (II) for such periods of time, and (III) with such remedies, as are expressly warranted by the manu-
facturer of such parts of Goods. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any warranty with respect to such parts of Goods and any remedies available as a result of a
breach thereof shall be subject to all of the procedures, limitations, and exclusions set forth herein.
THE WARRANTIES HEREIN ARE IN LIEU OF ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE. IN PARTICULAR, SCC MAKES NO
WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
No representative, agent or dealer of SCC has authority to modify, expand, or extend this Warranty, to waive any of the limitations or exclusions, or to make any
different or additional warranties with respect to Goods.
Period of Limitations. No claim, suit or other proceeding may be brought by Purchaser for any breach of the foregoing warranty or this Agreement by SCC or in
any way arising out of this Agreement or relating to the Goods after one year from the date of the breach. In the interpretation of this limitation on action for a
breach by SCC, it is expressly agreed that there are no warranties of future performance of the goods that would extend that period of limitation herein contained
for bringing an action.
Indemnifications. Purchaser agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, and defend SCC if so requested, from any and all liabilities, as defined herein, suffered, or
incurred by SCC as a result of, or in connection with, any act, omission, or use of the Goods by Purchaser, its employees or customers, or any breach of this
Agreement by Purchaser. Liabilities shall include all costs, claims, damages, judgments, and expenses (including reasonable attorney fees and costs).
Remedies of SCC. SCC’s rights and remedies shall be cumulative and may be exercised from time to time. In a proceeding or action relating to the breach of this
Agreement by Purchaser, Purchaser shall reimburse SCC for reasonable costs and attorney’s fees incurred by SCC. No waiver by SCC of any breach of Pur-
chaser shall be effective unless in writing nor operate as a waiver of any other breach of the same term thereafter. SCC shall not lose any right because it has not
exercised it in the past.
Applicable Law. This Agreement is made in Michigan and shall be governed by and interpreted according to Michigan law. Any lawsuit arising out of this Agree-
ment or the Goods may be handled by a federal or state court whose district includes Muskegon County, Michigan, and Purchaser consents that such court shall
have personal jurisdiction over Purchaser.
Miscellaneous. If any provision of this Agreement is found to be invalid or unenforceable under any law, the provision shall be ineffective to that extent and for the
duration of the illegality, but the remaining provisions shall be unaffected. Purchaser shall not assign any of its rights nor delegate any of this obligations under this
Agreement without prior written of SCC. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of SCC and Purchaser and each of their legal representa-
tives, successors and assigns.
SCC warrants its products to be free of defects in materials and workmanship under normal use and service for a period of one (1) year from the date of delivery.
This warranty is extended only to the original purchaser for use of the Goods. It does not cover normal wear parts such as plastic tongs, tong holders, tong cables,
bag holders, or acrylic dividers.
General Conditions. All service labor and/or parts charges are subject to approval by SCC. Contact the Customer Service Department in writing or call 231-798-
8888.
All claims must contain the following information: (1) the model and serial code number of the equipment; (2) the date and place of installation; (3) the name and
address of the agency which performed the installation; (4) the date of the equipment failure; and (5) a complete description of the equipment failure and all cir-
cumstances relating to that failure.
Once the claim has been determined to be a true warranty claim by SCC’s Customer Service Department, the following procedure will be taken: (1) replacement
parts will be sent at no charge from SCC on a freight prepaid basis; (2) reimbursement for service labor will be paid if the following conditions have been met— (a)
prior approval of service agency was awarded from the Customer Service Department; and (b) an itemized statement of all labor charges incurred is received by
the Customer Service Department. The cost of the service labor reimbursement will be based on straight time rates and reasonable time for the repair of the de-
fect.
If problems occur with any compressor, notify SCC’s Customer Service Department immediately. Any attempt to repair or alter the unit without prior consent from
the Customer Service Department will render any warranty claim null and void. This warranty and protection plan does not apply to any condensing unit or any part
thereof which has been subject to accident, negligence, misuse, or abuse, or which has not been operated in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommenda-
tions or if the serial number of the unit has been altered, defaced, or removed.
Limit of Liability. The limit of liability of SCC toward the exchange cost of the original condensing unit, F.O.B. SCC, Norton Shores, MI, of each motor-compressor
assembly replaced during the warranty shall not exceed manufacturer's current established wholesaler’s exchange price and in no case shall the labor of removing
or replacing the motor-compressor or parts thereof be the responsibility of SCC.
