What Does This Warranty Cover?
Subject to conditions outlined in this statement, RWC (in the USA, Reliance Worldwide Corporation and in Canada, Reliance
Worldwide Corporation (Canada) Inc.) warrants to owners of real property in the United States and Canada that SharkBite® and
Cash Acme® products, when used and installed in accordance with the requirements set forth below, to be free from defects in
material and workmanship for the applicable Warranty Period. This Limited Warranty is in effect for installations made after July
1, 2015 and is applicable to product installed in the country it was purchased. Proof of purchase is required to validate the war-
ranty period; if proof of purchase is not available, the warranty period shall default to the date of manufacture for each prod-
uct.
What Are The Conditions Of This Warranty?
All products must be installed in accordance with all then applicable codes, good plumbing practice, in accordance with
any local, state, provincial or federal requirements, and installed in a potable water or radiant heating application
unless a non-potable water service is specifically allowed for in the pertinent product literature.
The installing contractor must use construction techniques compliant with then applicable codes to install the range of
products and use the product(s) within the design parameters specified in any installation guidelines and technical
notes for the applicable system. This shall include field pressure testing prior to concealing with concrete or by other
means. Failure to install RWC products according to manufacturer's installation instruction will void all applicable
warranties and may result in severe water damage.
Products must not be installed in a system that may operate at temperatures or at pressures that exceed the printed
rating on the product, packaging or installation instructions.
Without limiting the foregoing, this Limited Warranty does not apply if the product failure or resulting damage is caused
by: (a) evidence of tampering, mishandling, neglect, accidental damage, freeze damage (it is expressly understood
that failure as a result of any freezing fluids within the pipes does not constitute a defect in material or workmanship
and shall not be covered by this warranty) or unauthorized modifications or repairs that cause damage to RWC war-
ranted products; (b) exposure to harmful, unauthorized, or unanticipated chemicals or substances or corrosive water
conditions; (c) exposure to ultraviolet light; (d) faulty installation including failure to follow proper burial instructions;
(e) damage from faulty operating conditions; (f) components not manufactured or sold by RWC; and (g) acts of na-
ture such as earthquakes, fire, flood or lightning.
Although RWC provides a plumbing system to facilitate a complete installation, other manufacturers pipe and/or fittings
may be installed in any given installation provided manufacturing of the pipe and/or fittings demonstrates compli-
ance with the applicable ASTM/CSA standards, and the product has been certified by a recognized third-party testing
agency. The RWC product in the given installation will continue to be covered under this Limited Warranty although
limits on Warranty Period may apply. RWC will be responsible only for proven defects in material or workmanship in
RWC products. Problems in products manufactured by another company should be reported to that manufacturer.
RWC does not warrant the integrity or workmanship of the contractor/installer.
