HEATEC WARRANTY

Heatec, a subsidiary of Astec Industries, warrants each new piece of equipment or part manufactured by us to be free from defective material and workmanship for its normal use and service. We warrant our equipment and parts for a period of one year after shipment of such equipment to the original purchaser. However, if purchaser requests delayed shipment when notified that the equipment is ready to ship, warranty is from time of first notification.

Our obligation under this warranty is limited to replacing defective parts at our factory. Defective parts must be returned to our factory with transportation charges prepaid. We will replace only those parts that we judge, as a result of examinations we make at the factory, to be defective. Exceptions to the warranties are as follows:

Heatec warrants helical coils in our HCS heaters for three years.
Heatec warrants helical coils in our HC heaters for five years.
Heatec makes no warranty on refractory materials.

We do not warrant any equipment that has, in our judgement, been repaired or altered outside our factory in a way that affects its stability or reliability. Neither do we warrant any equipment that has been misused, neglected, accidently damaged, or subjected to conditions contrary to our recommendations.

Parts and equipment produced by other companies are covered by separate warranties from their manufacturers. Such items include motors, motor starters, pumps, mixers, mills, scales, speed reducers, valves, pressure regulators, solenoids, electronic drives, pressure differential switches, temperature sensing switches, flame scanners, gauge boards, modulating actuators, electronic displays, pressure transmitters, radar sensors and other electronic controls and instrumentation. Because such items are covered by separate warranties they are not included in the Heatec warranty.

We reserve the right to change or improve our products at any time without any obligation to make changes or improvements to equipment previously sold.

This warranty is expressly in lieu of any other warranties, including any implied warranty of merchantability or any implied warranty of fitness for a particular purpose on any product manufactured by Heatec. Heatec shall not be liable for any consequential damages for breach of any written or implied warranty on any of our products.
