Rapid Resolution
When a warranty issue arises it is our desire to respond quickly and appropriately. The service department at Helmer is there
for you. Helmer will oversee the handling of your warranty service from start to finish. Therefore, Helmer must give advance
authorization for all service calls and/or parts needs relating to a warranty issue. Any repeat service calls must also be authorized
as well. This allows for proper diagnosis and action. Helmer will not be responsible for charges incurred for service calls made by
third parties prior to authorization from Helmer. Helmer retains the right to replace any product in lieu of servicing it in the field.
Compressor
For the warranty period listed below, Helmer will supply the refrigeration compressor, if it is determined to be defective, at no
charge, including freight. Helmer will not be liable for installation, refrigerant, or miscellaneous charges required to install the
compressor beyond the first year of the warranty period.
♦
i.Series model compressor warranty period is seven (7) years.
♦ Horizon Series model compressor warranty period is five (5) years.
Parts
For a period of two (2) years, Helmer will supply at no charge, including freight, any part that fails due to defects in material or
workmanship under normal use, with the exception of expendable items. Expendable items such as glass, filters, light bulbs,
and door gaskets are excluded from this warranty coverage. Inspection of defective parts by Helmer will be final in determining
warranty status. Warranty procedures must be followed in all events.
Labor
For a period of one (1) year, Helmer will cover repair labor costs (including travel) and the cost of refrigerant and supplies
necessary to perform authorized repairs. Repair service must be performed by an authorized Helmer service agency following
the authorization process detailed above. Alternatively, your facility’s staff may work with a Helmer technician to make repairs.
Labor costs for repairs made by unauthorized service personnel, or without the assistance of a Helmer technician, will be the
responsibility of the end user.
