You will always love the fact that with your every purchase of an outdoor playset, a warranty is attached to it. The warranty forms part of cost savings for you, whether or not you will be able to use it for the entire lifetime of the playset or not. But remember that a company will not grant warranty on your outdoor playset if you will not play your own part.
This then results to the so called limited lifetime warranty on the outdoor playset you have purchased. You may wonder why a company puts limitations on your outdoor playset warranty. Generally, you have responsibilities as the purchaser and as the owner of the items. You should take care of the pieces while it is in your possession.
What are the basic limitations on outdoor playset warranties?
Buying outdoor playset pieces from manufacturers entitles you to warranties but with some limitations. These are things you need to understand with these provisions:
1. Ownership. The limited warranty on your outdoor playset purchase is linked to the ownership of the playset. As long as you are the owner of the house where the playset is installed, the company is willing to render all repairs on manufacture defects. This means that the warranty is non transferable to the next property owner once you decide to sell it.
2. Time constraints. Once you have seen a defect on your outdoor playset, you are required to send the merchandise within a 30 day period back to the company for proper inspection. Freight will be paid by the company once they receive the defective part and once they ship the replacement to you. After the 30 day period, you pay for all shipment costs.
3. Approval for defective items is needed. You must make sure that you seek certification from the provider who sold you the outdoor playset before you return it to the actual manufacturer of the product. The approval should indicate the date for the purchase as proof that there was indeed a purchase that took place between you and the company.
4. Regular inspection is required. This is part of your responsibilities as the owner of the outdoor playset. You must see to it that you take down notes on any replacements you made that construe with the guidelines set by the company. Most companies will give you a listing of replacement parts that you may use during the inspection process.
5. Cost of labor. Cost of labor is not included in the replacement of defective parts of your outdoor playset. This adds up to the limitations of the warranties you get from the company.
6. Miscellaneous. Other limitations to the warranties of the product include direct causes that will lead to the damage of the product. These are vandalism, weather or climate changes, acts of nature and improper installation and usage of the outdoor playset.
You should not presume that the company has the sole responsibility for the warranties extended to your playset. You have a major role to play and you must ensure that you abide by these rules. If you have any doubts on warranties linked to the outdoor playset, you should raise these concerns immediately before the purchase.
