Stulz Air Technology Systems, Inc. (SATS) warrants your purchase to be free from defects in material and 
workmanship for 60 months (original standard 24 months and purchased additional 36 months). SATS’ obligation 
under this warranty is to repair or replace, at its option, free of charge to the customer, any part or parts which are 
determined by SATS to be defective for a period of 60 months from the date of start-up. Start-up must be completed 
within the fi rst 180 days from shipment. The 60 month warranty only covers original compressor(s) that were installed 
by SATS or a original equipment supplier contracted by SATS  to manufacture equipment solely for SATS.  

Compressors replaced under this warranty are shipped FOB factory ground, and warranted for the balance of 
the original warranty period or for 90 days from the date of installation, whichever is greater. If the factory is not 
allowed to start up the equipment within 180 days from the date of shipment, the warranty will commence on the 
181st day from equipment shipment

Stulz Air Technology System’s warranty does not cover failures caused by improper installation, abuse, misuse, 
alteration, misapplication, improper or lack of maintenance, negligence, accident, normal deterioration (including 
wear and tear), or the use of improper parts or improper repair. Purchaser’s remedies are limited to replacement 
or repair of non-conforming materials in accordance with the written warranty. This warranty does not include cost 
for torch charges, reclaim charges, Freon, transportation, travel expenses, costs for removal or reinstallation of 
equipment or labor for repairs or replacements made in the fi eld.

If any sample was shown to the buyer, such sample was merely to illustrate the general type and quality of the 
product, and not to represent that the equipment would necessarily conform to the sample.

This is the only warranty given by the seller, and such warranty is only given to buyers for commercial or industrial 
purposes. The warranty is not enforceable until the invoice(s) is paid in full.

THIS FOREGOING SHALL CONSTITUTE SATS’ ENTIRE LIABILITY AND YOUR EXCLUSIVE 
REMEDY. IN NO EVENT SHALL SATS BE LIABLE FOR ANY DEFECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, 
INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOST PROFITS (EVEN 
IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY THEREOF) ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THE INSTALLATION, 
USE OR MAINTENANCE OF THE EQUIPMENT. THIS WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER 
WARRANTIES, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR 
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

This warranty supersedes all other previously printed warranties dated prior to this document.

WARF-1003 Rev. A; 8/30/10

SATS offers a two year standard limited warranty as stated on the previous page. Additionally an extended war-
ranty may be purchased on the unit’s compressor. The compressor warranty as stated below will be sent with 
your unit if the option is purchased and should be retained for future reference. You may consult the factory to 
verify if the extended compressor warranty was purchased for your system.
