TWO-YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY
Provided that the Ross® 150 Roof Vent® has been installed in strict accordance with Ross® Manufacturing, LLC’s, (Ross®) written installation instructions, Ross® warrants that its 150 Roof Vent will be free from manufacturing defects during the span of 2 years from original installation date. Manufacturing defects DOES NOT include fading of vents. Fading is common amongst ALL roofing products and fading does not impede function or performance of the Ross Vents. Fading is purely a cosmetic issue. If fading occurs Ross products may be painted with a plastic approved spray paint.
Should any manufacturing defect occur during the 2 year period of the original purchaser (and as long as the original purchaser is still living and retains ownership of the property), Ross® will provide replacement material for that portion of the product deemed to be defective (not including labor costs incurred in removing defective vent or installing replacement product). Proper documentation of date of installation and purchase must accompany any claims for warranty.
In the event of replacement according to the terms of this warranty, the original warranty on the replacement material will extend for the balance of the warranty period in effect at the time the vent proved defective.
