Performance of Warranty
Please register your spa within 7 days of delivery. You can register your new spa at www.clearwaterspas.com. Your spa must be registered before any authorized warranty service work can be performed. In the event of a covered defect under this Limited Warranty, Clearwater or its’ agent will make repair in accordance with conditions contained in this Limited Warranty. In doing so, Clearwater reserves the right, at its’ option, to either repair or replace the defective spa or component. The homeowner is required to provide full access to the spa cabinet’s entire service side panels, without obstruction, to service all internal components. There will be no charge for parts or labor to repair the spa, however, you may incur a core-charge and shipping on the parts as well as a reasonable repair-person travel and mileage charge by the servicing company. Clearwater reserves the right to use either new or reconditioned replacement parts and they will carry the balance of the original part’s warranty. If the covered defect cannot be repaired in the field, as determined by Clearwater, we reserve the right to have the spa shipped to the factory for repair or provide a replacement/exchange spa of equal value. In such an event, the spa owner will be solely responsible for the cost associated with the removal and shipping costs to the factory of the defective spa, shipping costs from the factory of the repaired/replacement spa, and the installation of the replacement spa. The replacement spa will carry the balance of the original spa’s warranty. The liability of Clearwater under this Limited Warranty, if any, shall not exceed the original amount paid for the defective product. It is the responsibility of the spa owner to notify the factory, in writing, immediately upon discovery of a warranty claim. Neglecting this notification may void your claim.
