Warranty will be rejected for commercial products not installed by a qualified engineer. After 14 days from the invoice date, normal terms of warranty will apply.

Warranty stated is a 12 month parts only warranty and no labour or engineer costs are covered.  

A parts only warranty allows you to use your own sourced fully qualified engineer (at your own cost) to assess the problem. This must be followed by a full engineers' report on letter headed paper in PDF format with supporting photos to be sent back to ourselves, within 30 days of the reported fault, which we will then forward onto the product manufacturer. Any warranty claims requested without a qualified engineer report and supporting images will be rejected. Once approved by the manufacturer the parts required will be sent to your desired location. The manufacturer requests that the defective parts are to be sent back on repair of the unit. Failure to send these defective parts back is unacceptable and will result in a full invoice for the replacement parts. Failure to provide this report within 30 days of this being reported will result in your warranty claim being rejected.

Quatrone (aam appliances ltd) does its utmost to expedite all required parts as soon as possible but lead times may take 3-4 weeks depending on the required parts or location of the supplier. In some instances, it may take longer than the time estimated but we would ensure to keep you informed on the status during this period. 

At our discretion, if we choose to cover the products with a Back to Base warranty, the customer is responsible for the cost of sending the product back to our warehouse while we cover the costs of sending it back to you after being repaired.

Under the Back to Base warranty if the product(s) are discovered to have ‘no fault found’ they will be returned to the Customer, and the return costs will be the liability of the Customer. This also applies to poor maintained or unhygienic products (strong/bad odours/food remnants etc).

If item has been reported as faulty within the first 14 days, we are happy to arrange for the return of this, however, we do have the right to inspect this upon its return. If no fault is found or if the item is found to be poorly maintained and therefore a fault has developed as a result of this poor maintenance, then we will not be liable, and you will be responsible for the collection of the item at your cost.

Quatrone (aam appliances ltd) is not liable for any lost profits or business interruption that may have directly, indirectly, or incidentally arisen from a faulty or defected unit. It is the customers responsibility to plan and prepare for such instances.
