Action Rain Gutters Products Warranty.
Action Rain Gutters hereby issues the following Limited Lifetime Coating Warranty (Limited Warranty) exclusively to the original Owner/Client of materials installed by Action Rain Gutters with coated steel or aluminum gutters, downspouts and rain carrying accessories subject to the terms and conditions listed below. During the lifetime of the Owner/Client, and as long as Owner/Client owns the building or structure on which the material is installed, Action Rain Gutters warrants that the paint on the material will not:

(a) Peel, check, chip or crack. These terms shall not mean alterations to the paint as a result of exposed raw edges, embossing, end cutting, cut edge exposure or such crazing or slight cracking as may occur on tightly roll-formed edges or brake-bends.

(b) Fade or change color in excess of five (5) units of color difference (Hunter) calculated in accordance with ASTM D2244. The color change is measured on an exposed painted surface that has been cleaned of surface soils and chalks and then compared to corresponding values measured on the original or unexposed coated surface. Fading and color changes may not be uniform, depending on sun and atmospheric exposure, and Action Rain Gutters does not warrant that color changes will be uniform.

(c) Chalk or oxidize in excess of a numerical rating of eight (8) when properly maintained as described herein as measured in accordance with the standard procedures specified in ASTM D-659. Remedy The sole and exclusive remedy under this Limited Warranty shall be one of the following to be chosen in Action Rain Gutters sole discretion: repair, recoating, refinishing or replacement of defective material.

The term replacement includes labor costs of material removal, fabrication or installation. Any repair, recoating, refinishing or replacement is completely free of charge; Action Rain Gutters will not pay or otherwise be responsible for, any costs associated with or related to anything else affixed to the material, including, but not limited to, solar panels or television antennas, without its written consent prior to installation. Any repair, recoating, refinishing or replacement will not restart the warranty period. If repair, recoating, refinishing or replacement is not practical, Action Rain Gutters may elect, at its sole option, to refund the original purchase price of the material paid to Action Rain Gutters.

Action Rain Gutters does not warrant material that is in contact with, or subject to, runoff from lead, copper, pressure-treated, green or wet lumber or wet insulation. Action Rain Gutters does not warrant material which has been modified without Action Rain Gutters express written approval, which has been improperly used or applied, or which has been painted after Action Rain Gutters has completed the job. This Limited Warranty does not extend to material installed within one thousand (1,000) feet from salt water unless Owner/Client performs biannual maintenance of the material in the form of a sweet water rinse (tap water). The Owner/Client is required to keep records of such maintenance for the Limited Warranty to be enforceable, and this maintenance is to be documented with written reports and date-stamped pictures.
