This Warranty is valid only in the United States and Canada, and only applies to products purchased and serviced in the United States and Canada. All replaced parts and Products, and Products on which a refund is made, become the property of Element.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the customer’s recovery shall not exceed the purchase price of the Product. This Warranty shall not extend to anyone other than the original customer who purchased the Product, and is not transferrable. No person is authorized to alter, extend or waive the Warranty of Element.
Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, or allow limitations on warranties, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you.
