LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY FOR RIS
Industrial Chimney Company (ICC) warrants its RIS chimney systems to be free from functional failure due to defects in material or workmanship for as long as the original consumer owns the chimney system. This warranty provides for replacement of any components which fail as a result of normal use on a residential fireplace, wood burning stove, furnace or boiler and includes replacement of any components damaged as a result of a chimney fire. (Note: Chimney fires are dangerous and preventable. We strongly encourage you to have your chimney cleaned regularly.) ICC warrants all stainless steel chimney components against perforation as a result of corrosion. This warranty does not cover damage caused to the building by chimney fires or misuse of the product.
No claims under this warranty will be honored unless ICC is notified of the potential claim and is given the opportunity to have one of its agents examine the chimney prior to replacement.
ICC will only be responsible for repair or replacement of any components found to be defective under this warranty. In no event shall ICC be responsible for any incidental or consequential damage caused by defects in the RIS chimney system.
