use or improper installation by the dealer or end user will be responsible of the dealer for the cost of replacement parts.

Warranties apply only to products that were sold to an authorized abc Sun Control dealer and installed under their supervision. Warranties are not transferable from the original owner to subsequent owners.

Retractable awnings, sunscreens, and tension shade systems are designed to provide shade only. They must be retracted under extreme climate conditions, such as heavy rain, snow, hail and strong winds. Warranties are null and void if the awnings and screens are left extended out or down under these conditions. In such conditions, the brackets, arms and other parts could fail and serious injury could result from falling debris.Automated controls are convinience items only and cannot be relied on to operate the units in such weather conditions.
Damage due to defects attributed to transportation, improper handling, installation, chemical or abrasive attack arising from unsuitable cleaning, atmospheric pollution, salt water and falling objects, external forces, explosions, fire, riots, civil commotions and acts of God are not covered under this warranty.

The company reserves the right to furnish a substitute or replacement product or component in the event that a product or component of a product is discontinued or otherwise not available.
Repair or replacement of a product or component will not extend the original warranty period. Replacement hardware for products outside of original warranty periods carries a 90-day warranty that supersedes the warranty described above.
The cost for custom (non-standard color) powder coat paint is excluded for warranty replacement parts and will be billed to the ordering company.
