​
First, just a few pointers from this document in plain English - you still should read the entire Terms and Conditions before placing an order:
-
All sales are final - no return and no exchange. Most of our products are built to order. Make sure that you order the correct product and, in case of CleanSweep® AC filters, verify the type of the outlet.
-
We cannot guarantee that our products will fix your specific problem - no one can; there are just too many variables. We do guarantee, though, that our products meet their specifications published at the time of purchase.
-
Our products are not designed for "mission critical" or "life critical" applications - should you use them in such applications against our advice, it is solely your responsibility.
-
Our products carry 3 year limited warranty
