WARRANTY
Warranty: the CUSTOMER accepts warranty conditions and terms which are explained in this page. The warranty starts with the balance payment.
Wooden products:
CUSTOMER accepts that wood is a natural material. It must be noted that wood will have grains and knots which will vary since the product is hand-made. As a natural product timber will react to changes in atmospheric conditions (may shrink or expand). Visible splitting of the wood may occur as it expands and contracts with changes in humidity and temperature. These happenings are perfectly normal and natural. It must be noted that natural wood changes do not affect the integrity of the timber therefore splitting or cracks are not covered by any guarantee.
The goods shipped by the SELLER are natural and hand-made products, therefore, slight variations in their properties may occur from time to time.
The CUSTOMER is held responsible for site preparation before and after the reception of a product. Please note that SELLER provides installation of all desired equipment in a product but due to different country requirements does not provide end-electric installation services (different plug connections etc.) (concerns electric heater of a product and individual designed sauna’s electric installation). CUSTOMER understands that the product was manufactured in a foreign country, therefore, end-electric installation services should be provided only by authorized technicians in the CUSTOMER`S country (if requirements set out so).
Before the first commencement of the electric or/and the wooden heaters, we always recommend consulting the local certified specialist.
FORCE MAJEURE
SELLER is not responsible for any failure to deliver caused by circumstances beyond their control including (but not limited to) strikes, terrorism, war, weather conditions, exchange fluctuations, governmental or regulatory changes, and natural disasters.
Detailed warranty form
This warranty policy was drafted following Directive 2011/83/EC and Directive 1999/44/EC. According to this document, SELLER provides 24 months of warranty service for the product. Higher utilization parts, such as heaters and all-electric equipment, are covered for a 12-month warranty period. The warranty period commences once the product is fully paid for and delivered to the CUSTOMER.
SELLER always aims for efficient solutions and for said solutions to satisfy both parties. In return, the SELLER expects collaboration and smooth communication on the CUSTOMER’s part.
Electric heaters: all electric wiring work must be carried out by a certified electrician. It is strongly suggested to not leave the stove unattended, at least the first three times of firing it up.
Variations: The CUSTOMER understands that the product is handmade thus products of the same model may have differences.
Wood alteration: wood will have grains and knots that vary. As a natural product, it will alter when exposed to environmental conditions and during utilization. For this reason, visible splitting may occur as wood expands. These changes are normal and natural, they do not affect the integrity of the wood. SELLER strongly suggests oiling exterior wooden parts at least twice a year for rot prevention and to extend service life.
Leakage: Wooden hot tubs tend to leak initially (as wood needs time to absorb water and expand for small gaps to close) and may leak small amounts of water during later use. This is also a normal and natural occurrence.
Water heating for hot tubs: water must cover the upper connection to the heater before a fire is ignited/the electric heater is turned on. Failure to follow this can cause severe damage to the product, i.e. melting of plastic lining, burning of wood paneling, etc. and it may become inoperative.
Very small visible scratches (round or another form), and tiny air pockets that appear on fiberglass surfaces (without water penetration) are not considered defects as they do not change or worsen the use of the product.
Assembly kits: The CUSTOMER is fully responsible for correct assembly. Available time and skill level must be considered beforehand. If the CUSTOMER cannot assemble the purchased assembly kit, he shall seek professional help. Professional assembly expenses are not covered by SELLER.
Improper use: CUSTOMER must familiarise himself with User manuals and follow their instructions. Failure to follow User manuals can lead to irreparable damage. The CUSTOMER is always encouraged to contact the SELLER for any additional information regarding the use of the product.
Upon receiving the product CUSTOMER must examine it as soon as possible. If the CUSTOMER notices any damage/missing items, the CUSTOMER must note it down in the CMR (Contract for the International Carriage of Goods by Road) consignment note, which is handed to the CUSTOMER by the driver to sign. By signing the CMR consignment note, the CUSTOMER confirms that the product was delivered undamaged. If the CUSTOMER notices damage/missing items upon receiving the product, the CUSTOMER must inform the SELLER in 2 business days.
CUSTOMER is responsible for unloading the delivered product unless agreed otherwise. If the driver offers help during unloading, the CUSTOMER may accept it, however in this case, if any damage occurs during unloading, neither the SELLER nor the transport company is held accountable.
