Entex Soffit, Fascia & Trim Coil Warranty

LIMITED WARRANTY

A. LIMITED WARRANTY COVERAGE.

EDCO Entex coated soffit, fascia, gutter system and trim coil (“Building Materials”) are warranted to you, the original property owner(s), by the manufacturer EDCO Products, Incorporated (“EDCO”). EDCO warrants against the Building Materials containing manufacturing defects which result in cracking, chipping or peeling. Additionally, EDCO warrants to you that the Building Materials, after removal of foreign surface deposits, will not show a color change in excess of 5 Delta E units (NBS) as a result of normal weathering or ultraviolet exposure for a period of thirty-five (35) years from the date of installation. This Limited Warranty remains in effect for as long as the original property owner(s) are living and are the owner(s) of the property to which the Building Materials were initially applied. In the event there is more than one original property owner, this Limited Warranty will remain in effect as long as one of the original property owner(s) is living and owns an interest in the property to which the Building Materials were initially applied. With respect to application of the Building Materials to property owned by entities (non-individual human beings such as corporations, limited liability companies, governmental entities or agencies, religious organizations, trusts, condominium or cooperative housing arrangements, intangible legal entities and other entities or organizations), the duration of this limited warranty is fifty (50) years and is nontransferable. This Limited Warranty shall be valid only after the registration certificate is completely filled in by the original property owner(s), signed, and received by EDCO Products, Incorporated within thirty (30) days after completion of installation of the Building Materials or purchase from the builder of your newly constructed structure.

B. NOTICE, INSPECTION, REMEDIES - USD $100 PAYMENT, TOTAL LIABILITY – REPLACEMENT TERM.

1. If you think your Building Materials contain a warranted manufacturing defect, write to EDCO Products, Incorporated, 8700 Excelsior Boulevard, Hopkins, MN 55343, Attention: Warranty Services, and provide the date the Building Materials were installed, certificate number and name exactly as indicated on the original warranty registration. If you desire to exercise your rights under this Limited Warranty do not begin any repairs prior to receiving EDCO’s written permission to do so. EDCO reserves the right to perform all repairs. Some methods of remedy may ruin the Building Materials or make it impossible for EDCO to repair the Building Materials. Further, EDCO must have a reasonable opportunity to inspect the Building Materials for defects before repairs begin. 2. Remedies: Subject to the limits set forth below, if a warranted manufacturing defect exists in your Building Materials, at EDCO’s option, EDCO will repair, refinish or replace the defective Building Materials, or refund the price paid (including reasonable installation charges and taxes) for such defective Building Materials (a) at no charge if EDCO receives the claim within the first three years after the date of installation of such Building Materials; or (b) subject to your payment of $100 U.S.* for each incident under this Limited Warranty if EDCO receives the claim during the warranty period but after the first three years from date of installation of such Building Materials. In any case, EDCO’s total liability for a claim under this Limited Warranty shall be limited to, and in no event exceed, the total purchase price (including reasonable installation charges and taxes) of the installed Building Materials. Any costs and expenses beyond EDCO’s liability shall be paid to EDCO or otherwise paid by the owner(s) prior to EDCO commencing warranty work on any claim which exceeds EDCO’s total liability. 3. Replacement Term: EDCO reserves the right to discontinue or make changes to its Building Materials. If the same Building Materials are not available and EDCO decides to replace the warranted defective Building Materials, EDCO shall have the right to substitute Building Materials which it considers of equal quality. All warranty claims shall be settled between you and EDCO, but EDCO may direct and pay a company, dealer, contractor, applicator or distributor to perform any remedy under this warranty on EDCO’s behalf.

C. TRANSFER OF LIMITED WARRANTY

This Limited Warranty is transferable by the original property owner(s) to the next owner(s) of the property to which the Building Materials are attached provided EDCO receives notice of transfer of title of the property, accompanied by a One Hundred Dollar ($100 U.S.) transfer fee*, within thirty (30) days of the transfer of ownership. Your notice must include the original owner’s name as registered with EDCO on the original warranty registration, the name of the next property owner(s), the certificate registration number, and the date the Building Materials were installed. Failure to file the required transfer notice within thirty (30) days shall relieve EDCO of any further obligation to the next owner(s) under the terms of this Limited Warranty. Upon transfer of the Limited Warranty, the transferee shall be entitled to the remainder of the Limited Warranty based on the Limited Warranty start date being the initial installation date of the Building Materials applicable to the transferor, provided the Limited Warranty remedy shall, in addition to the $100 per claim payment being due after the third year from the initial installation date, the property owner shall be responsible for 10% per year (e.g., 10% in 6th year, 20% in 7th year, etc.) of the total cost (or the refund will be reduced by such amount) until the fourteenth year when EDCO’s warranty coverage is limited to 10% of the total costs and the property owner is responsible for the balance.
