Limited Warranty
S.R. Smith, LLC warrants to the original retail purchaser
that products manufactured by S.R. Smith, when properly
assembled and installed in accordance with S.R. Smith’s
assembly and installation instructions, and properly used
and maintained, shall be free from defects in material and
workmanship for a period of three (3) years from the date
of original manufacture except for the following items:
WetDek™ (1 year) and PoolSonix™ (2 years). The original
retail purchaser must follow the procedure set forth below
when submitting a warranty claim. S.R. Smith will repair
or replace, at its option, the product, and return it to
the owner freight prepaid. Determination of repair or
replacement shall be solely at the discretion of S.R.
Smith. Aquatic lift systems, components and batteries have
a separate warranty, set forth below.
All Aquatic Lifting Systems have a three (3) year warranty
on the frame, excluding the powder coated finish, which
may become scratched with normal use. All electronic and
motor components, with the exception of batteries, have a
full two (2) year warranty. Within the warranty period,
S.R.Smith will repair or replace any item deemed to be
found defective. Lift batteries come with a one-year,
pro-rated warranty. During the first 90 days of ownership,
batteries will be covered 100%. If a battery failure
occurs between day 91 and day 365, batteries are covered
at 50% of the original cost. Normal maintenance and care
of the unit, including charge of the battery when not in
use is recommended. Do not store the unit, battery or
components near or around chemicals.
The warranty is non-transferable and is subject to the
following terms and conditions (View complete S.R.Smith
