10 Year Warranty


Limited Warranty
PV Powered, Inc. provides a limited warranty for your residential or commercial inverter and optional data monitoring module for defects caused by material or manufacturing flaws. The inverter and the data monitoring module must be installed and maintained by a qualified technician in order for the warranty to be valid.


Term of Coverage
The warranty period for the inverter is ten years and the warranty on the data monitoring module is one year, each beginning on the date of purchase by the original end user.

Coverage
PV Powered will, at its option, repair or replace the defective component(s) free of charge, provided that you notify PV Powered of the defect during the warranty period, have a dated proof of purchase and PV Powered determines that the defect is covered by the limited warranty set forth above. PV Powered reserves the right to inspect the defective component(s) and determine if the defect is due to material or manufacturing flaws. PV Powered also reserves the right to charge a fee for service time expended if the defect is not due to material or manufacturing flaw or is not for some other reason subject to this limited warranty.

PV Powered will, at its option, use new and/or reconditioned parts in performing warranty repair and in building replacement products. PV Powered reserves the right to use parts or products of original or improved design in the repair or replacement. If PV Powered repairs or replaces a product, its warranty continues for the remaining portion of the original warranty period or 90 days from the date of the return shipment to the customer, whichever period expires later. All replaced products and all parts removed from repaired products become the property of PV Powered.

For defects covered by this limited warranty, PV Powered will provide, at no additional cost to the customer, both parts and labor necessary to repair the product, and return shipment to the customer via a PV Powered selected, non-expedited, surface freight carrier within the United States and Canada.
