Warranty Conditions

Glenco Air & Power Pty Ltd (the “Company”) warrants 

that the Goods shall be free from defects in material 

and workmanship for a period of two years (2) years 

or five hundred (500) operating hours, whichever 

occurs first, from the date of original sale (hereinafter 

the “Warranty Period”) in normal domestic applications 

such as personal, residential household or recreational 

use.

A Warranty Period of one (1) year or five hundred 

(500) operating hours, whichever occurs first, shall 

apply in commercial applications such as income 

producing, rental or other business related use. 

Goods sold to a Consumer with an Australian 

Business Number shall be deemed as being used in a 

commercial application.

The Warranty Period is continuous from the date of 

original sale and does not restart upon the repair or 

replacement of the Goods or any part thereof.

Upon return – transportation charges prepaid by 

the Consumer – to the Company’s or its nominated 

dealer’s premises within the Warranty Period, the 

Company shall repair or replace, at its option, any 

Goods which it determines to contain defective 

material or workmanship, and shall return said 

Goods to the Consumer free-on-board (FOB) at 

the Company’s or agent’s premises. The repair or 

replacement work will be scheduled and performed 

according to the Company’s normal work flow and 

availability of replacement parts. 

The Company shall not be obligated, however, to 

repair or replace Goods which have been: repaired 

by others; abused; improperly installed, operated, 

maintained, repaired, transported or stored; not 

serviced to schedule using genuine spare parts; 

altered or otherwise misused or damaged in any way.

The Company shall not be responsible for any 

diagnosis, communication, dismantling, packing, 

handling, freight, and reassembly or reinstallation 

charges.

Freight damage, pre-delivery service, normal operating 

adjustments, preventative maintenance service, 

consumable items, cosmetic damage, corrosion, 

erosion, normal wear and tear, performance, 

merchantability, and fitness for a particular purpose 

are not covered under this Warranty. Consumable 

items include fuel, lubricants, filters, spark plugs and 

batteries.

The Company shall not be liable for any repairs, 

replacements, or adjustments to the Goods or any 

costs of labour performed by the Consumer without 

the Company’s prior written approval.

To the extent permissible by law and notwithstanding 

any other clause in these Warranty Conditions, the 

Company excludes all liability whatsoever to the 

Consumer arising out of or in any way connected with 

a contract for any consequential or indirect losses of 

any kind howsoever arising and whether caused by 

breach of statute, breach of contract, negligence or 

other tort.

The Company’s liability will be limited to, in the case of 

products, the replacement of the products, the supply 

of equivalent products or the payment of the cost 

of replacing the products or of acquiring equivalent 

products or, in the case of services, the supply of the 

services again or the payment of the cost of having the 

services supplied again. The choice of remedy will be 

at the discretion of the Company and the Consumer 

acknowledges that this limitation of liability is fair and 

reasonable.

This Warranty is available only to the original 

Consumer bearing the original tax invoice from the 

Company or one of its authorized dealers as proof of 

purchase. Goods purchased from any other party such 

as a private seller, auction house, eBay seller, etc. are 

not covered by this Warranty. 

Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be 

excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You 

are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major 

failure and compensation for any other reasonably 

foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to 

have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail 

to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not 

amount to a major failure.
