  LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY

If an American-Standard Americast® brand product is found to be defective in 

materials or workmanship, after inspection by an authorized American-Standard 
representative, American-Standard will repair or, at its option, exchange the product for a 
similar model. This warranty extends for the lifetime of the product, so long as it remains 
in use in its original place of installation, except that the warranty applies to a bathing 
vessel’s slip-resisting surface only for the first year after the product’s initial installation.

This warranty applies only to the original purchaser and installation of these products.

This warranty does not apply to whirlpool components or to faucets, drains, 

mounting rims, grab bars or other accessories. If manufactured or supplied by American-
Standard, such whirlpool components and accessories are covered under separate 
limited warranties. 

This warranty does not apply to local building code compliance. Since local building 

codes vary considerably, the purchaser of this product should check with a local building 
or plumbing contractor to assure local code compliance before installation.

This warranty shall be void if the Americast® brand product has been moved from its 

initial place of installation; if it has been subjected to faulty maintenance, abuse, misuse, 
accident or other damage; if it was not installed in accordance with American-Standard’s 
instructions; or if it was modified in a manner inconsistent with the product as shipped by 
American-Standard.   

American-Standard's option to repair or exchange the product under this warranty 

does not cover any labor or other costs of removal or installation, nor shall American-
Standard be responsible for any other incidental or consequential damages 
attributable to a product defect or to the repair or exchange of a defective product, 
all of which are expressly excluded from this warranty.
 (Some states or provinces do 
not allow the exclusion or limitation of implied warranties, so this exclusion may not apply 
to you.)
This warranty gives you specific legal rights. You may have other statutory rights that 
vary from state to state or from province to province, in which case this warranty does not 
affect such statutory rights.

 For service under these warranties, it is suggested that a claim be made through the 

contractor or dealer from or through whom the product was purchased, or that a service 
request (including a description of the product model and of the defect) be sent to the 
following address:

CARE AND CLEANING...

For all porcelain enamel surfaces, regular, gentle
care is best. The recommended way to preserve the
finish, avoid scratches, and clean porcelain enamel
fixtures is to rinse them with detergent and water.
Generally, any of the light duty liquid dishwashing
detergents, such as Palmolive or Dawn, work well.
In areas where the water is hard, a heavy duty liquid
laundry detergent such as liquid Tide will work better.       

Palmolive® is a registered trademark of  Colgate-Palmolive Co.

Tide® and Dawn® are registered trademarks of Procter and Gamble.
