DEFINITIONS: 1) “Product” shall be defined as Model EAC, RAC, RHP, SAC, SHP, PAC, PHP, TAC, THP, WAC and WHP Products manufactured by Bebco Environmental Controls Corporation (herein after referred to as “Bebco”), which are marked with Bebco Model and Serial Numbers.  2) Accessories and Equipment shall be considered as additional items or devices purchased from other manufacturers by Bebco, shipped either integrally or separately from Product for installation by others, including but not limited to alarm lights and horns, gas detectors and other similar items.  3) “Purchaser” shall be defined as the entity that issues a Purchase Order to Bebco for Product, Accessories and Equipment which may act as or transfer Product to an Integrator or a Client. “Client” shall be defined as the end user who assumes ownership of said items at the final point of installation and use.

SPECIAL ADVISEMENTS:  Registered Limited Warranty applies if Product is registered by Purchaser or Client within Ninety (90) Days of Product shipment. If Product is not registered within Ninety (90) Days of shipment, Base Limited Warranty terms will apply as specified below.  In order to maximize the available benefits under this limited warranty, the Purchaser and Client should read it in its entirety. All parts and services provided for Product covered under this limited warranty must be made with Bebco furnished or authorized service parts and by Bebco Technicians or by a Bebco authorized HVAC service provider.

WARRANTY CONDITIONS: Subject to all terms and conditions herein, Bebco extends a limited warranty against manufacturing defects and workmanship for all Product that is installed and operated by the Purchaser and/or Client in complete accordance with all instructions in the Bebco Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual in the United States, Canada and Mexico. 

WARRANTY TERM: The Base Limited Warranty period for Product is effective for Eighteen (18 Months) from date of Bebco Factory shipment or Twelve (12) Months from date of installation site start-up, whichever is shorter. Upon proper registration of the Product by the Purchaser or Client within no more than Ninety (90) Days after Bebco Factory shipment, a Registered Limited Warranty shall become effective and extended the warranty period to Twenty-Four (24) Months after date of shipment. Regardless of registration, the Commencement Date for either warranty period shall be the date of Bebco Factory shipment, or under prior special written agreement at time of Product purchase, no greater than Ninety (90) Days after the Bebco Factory shipment date.

WARRANTY EXTENSIONS: An extended warranty shall extend the effective warranty based on the terms and conditions as negotiated at time of purchase. The purchase of site start-up services or site acceptance testing from Bebco and/or their authorized HVAC service provider under contract to Bebco shall alter the warranty Commencement Date of the Basic, Registered or Extended Warranty period to begin on the day after Client Acceptance of site start-up services or site acceptance testing.

TERM LIMITATION:  The installation of Product replacement parts and/or the provision of any field service or troubleshooting services under this limited warranty shall not extend the effective warranty period. The warranty period for any supplemental installation of Product replacement parts and/or the provision of any field service or troubleshooting services under this limited warranty shall therefore be applicable only during the warranty period remaining under the effective Product Warranty.

WARRANTY COVERAGE: The Base Limited Warranty covers all necessary parts and labor during the first Twelve (12) Months if purchased directly by the Client or up to Eighteen (18) Months if the Purchaser is an Integrator or agent thereof. Thereafter, a Registered Limited Warranty covers Bebco factory repair parts and labor or replacement parts only for field repair for Six (6) to Twelve (12) Months, to maturity of the Twenty-Four (24) Month Registered Limited Warranty period.  Under either warranty term, the warranty shall be effective to resolve any validated defect in parts and/or workmanship and is provided exclusively for the Purchaser during integration and the Client upon delivery to the site of installation and use. Warranty is transferable from Purchaser to Client and shall be in full effect and force during any hold over, commissioning or factory acceptance testing of Product regardless of whether Product is operational or at installation site, except according to terms stated below under Registration Requirements.  

WARRANTY REPAIR SERVICES: Bebco may request proof of Product purchase and/or installation in order to provide Product parts and service under this limited warranty. As Bebco’s only responsibility and Purchaser and Client’s only remedy under this limited warranty, Bebco will furnish all necessary labor and/or replacement parts in accordance with Warranty Coverage Terms above, whether provided by Bebco or a licensed HVAC service provider acting on Bebco’s behalf, subject to the terms of the warranty coverage above and labor charge limitations below. If a replacement part is not available at time of warranty service, Bebco may, at its option and sole discretion, provide a suitable substitute part. If Client selects unit repair at the Bebco factory, the client shall be responsible for freight to Bebco, and Bebco shall be responsible for cost of standard non-expedited freight back to client, whereas client shall pay the difference for expedited freight if requested.

LABOR COST LIMITATIONS:  This Warranty only covers costs of labor associated with actual repairs of any defect in workmanship.  Bebco hereby limits labor extended under the terms of this warranty at no cost by Bebco Technicians or a licensed HVAC service provider acting on Bebco’s behalf or reimbursement of costs incurred by the Client to contract any service provider acting on behalf of Client under the following terms and conditions:  1) Covered labor costs when provided by Bebco Technicians, a licensed HVAC service provider acting on the behalf of Bebco or a service provider acting on behalf of Client shall not cover expenses related to the following issues:  a) time required or expended and/or expenses related to travel to the jobsite exceeding one (1) hour per day;  b) lodging and per-diem expenses in any form or manner expended; c) time required or expended to obtain precursory site orientation or safety training, hot work permits, lockout or tag out; or site supervision; d) time or travel expenses required or expended to procure any tools, parts, materials or supplies to perform the services or repairs required; e) time or ancillary costs required or expended to obtain unit access, including but not limited to preparation or related site safety costs associated with the provision of scaffolds, ladders, cranes or other equipment to enable the performance of services in a safe manner or for any safety supervision or assistance, including “fire watch” or “safety supervision” provisions; f) time or expenses charged at “overtime” rates for service provider acting on behalf of Client, unless specifically approved in writing by Bebco prior to performance.  2) The terms of this warranty shall also exclude any time required or expended beyond normal costs associated with rendering a particular repair or service process under otherwise normal conditions, as determined at the sole discretion of Bebco.  Details regarding labor time allowances that will be covered by this warranty may be provided to the Client prior to the rendering of service by Bebco Technicians or a licensed HVAC service provider acting on Bebco’s behalf, and shall also be applicable to any request by Client for reimbursement under the terms of this warranty for any labor performed by a service provider acting on behalf of Client. This exclusion shall supersede all other oral and written communications and be applicable regardless of whether a Bebco Associate, Representative or Authorized Service Provider furnishes, provides or accepts any responsibility for costs of any repairs or services in any form or manner alleging they are under the terms of this warranty.  Bebco further reserves the right to verify commercial HVAC unit repair licenses, require fully detailed labor worksheets and other forms of documentation and to withhold any or all reimbursement for any labor that may be performed and/or for any ancillary charges that may be incurred by a service provider acting on behalf of Client, at its sole discretion.

NON-WARRANTY SERVICES:  All non-warranted parts provided and/or non-warranted services incurred during a warranty serviced event at the request of the Purchaser or Client shall be provided at Purchaser or Client’s sole cost and expense.  Bebco reserves the right to require a Purchase Order from the Purchaser or Client prior to accommodating any non-warranty services, and will require binding estimates for services from all Bebco certified contractors where and when possible or required.

SAFETY CERTIFICATIONS, TRADE CERTIFICATIONS & INSURANCE:  Bebco certified technicians and contractors may or may not possess all required safety or trade certifications and insurance necessary to conduct work at a particular location, and herein makes no guarantee that all applicable safety or trade certifications are attainable. Bebco may have the capability to obtain required certifications and insurance at the Client’s expense or may elect to act as an onsite consultant to the Client’s preferred technicians. 

Bebco certified technicians and contractors acting in a consulting capacity will only be authorized to assist the Client’s preferred technicians in a verbal manner to perform troubleshooting, maintenance, repairs and installation procedures. If the Client prefers Bebco technician(s) to obtain certain certifications or insurance, Bebco reserves the right to determine if attainment is possible, and if so may require the Client to pre-approve reimbursement for all associated expenses, including the cost of special insurance and/or the time required for the technician(s) to obtain required training or certification(s) including any associated with lodging and/or travel related expenses to obtain required training or certification(s), regardless of whether required  certifications are or are not attained.

SPECIAL SAFETY EQUIPMENT AND TOOLS:  Bebco certified technicians and contractors are fitted with basic PPE, including hard hats, safety glasses, and steel-toe boots.  The Client shall be required to furnish any special PPE required to perform work at a specific location.  The Client may also be required to provide special tools or equipment for Bebco technicians or contractors to perform work safely and efficiently. These tools may include but are not limited to filtered respirators, supplied air or self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA), non-sparking hydraulic or pneumatic tools, ladders, scaffolds, man-lifts and crane equipment.

REQUIRED WORKING CONDITIONS:  Bebco certified technicians and contractors are strictly required to obey all site safety rules and regulations and shall perform all work in the safest manner possible.  Bebco certified technicians and contractors are therefore directed by Bebco to require direct communications with duly authorized members of the site safety team to ensure that necessary ”hot-work” permits are obtained and maintained during all troubleshooting, maintenance, repairs and installation procedures, and that proper lock-out tag out power removal procedures are performed at all necessary times to ensure the safety of all technicians, operators and others who may dwell in close proximity to any troubleshooting, maintenance, repairs and installation procedures. 

REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS: Product must be properly registered by the Purchaser on behalf of Client or by Client within Ninety (90) Days of the Bebco Factory shipment date (the Warranty Commencement Date) to receive the Registered Limited
