For one year from date of original purchase,
we will provide, free of charge, parts and
service labor in your home to repair or
replace any part of the disposer that fails
because of a manufacturing defect.

EXTENDED WARRANTY

For a time period specified by model below,
we will provide, free of charge, parts and
service labor in your home to repair or
replace any part of the disposer that fails
because of a manufacturing defect.

Does not apply to other models.

The warranty is extended to the original
purchaser and any succeeding owner for
products purchased for ordinary home use in
the 48 mainland states, Hawaii and
Washington, D.C. In Alaska the warranty is
the same except that it is LIMITED because
you must pay to ship the product to the
service shop or for the service technician’s
travel costs to your home. If we determine
unit should be replaced rather than repaired,
the warranty on the replacement unit will be
limited to the unexpired term of the original
warranty.

All warranty service will be provided by our
Factory Service Centers or by our authorized
Customer Care

servicers during normal

working hours.
