warranty |
This warranty is
void if this Solana spa has been improperly installed,subjected
to alteration,misuse or abuse,or if any repairs on the spa are attempted
by anyone other than an authorized representative of Watkins Manufacturing
Corporation. Alteration shall include any component or plumbing
change,electrical conversion, or the addition of any non-approved*
sanitation or water purification device or heating system which
contributes to a component or unit failure or unsafe operating system.
Misuse and abuse shall include any operation of the spa other than
in accordance with Watkins Manufacturing Corporation's printed instructions,
or use of the spa in an application for which it is not designed.
Specifically: use of the spa in a non-residential application; damage
caused by operation of the spa outside the specified voltage requirements
(115v ± 10%) or operation of the spa at water temperatures outside
the range of 32°F and 120°F; damage caused by voltage
spikes or "brown-out" conditions; damage caused by a dirty, clogged
or calcified filter cartridge (see Spa Care and Maintenance instructions
in the Owner's Manual); damage to the spa surface caused by the
use of tri-chloro chlorine, chemical tablets in a floater, acid,
or any other spa sanitizing chemicals or spa surface cleaners which
are not recommended by Watkins Manufacturing Corporation; damage
caused by allowing undissolved spa sanitizing chemicals to lie on
the spa surface (no spa surface material can withstand this kind
of abuse); damage to components (excluding the No-Fault heater)
or spa surface caused by improper pH balance or other improper water
chemistry maintenance; and damage to the spa surface caused by leaving
the spa uncovered while empty of water and in direct exposure to
sunlight (this may cause solar heating distress) are considered
