Warranty Limitations and Conditions
• Installation by Qualified A-Grade Electrician – Evidence that the Fanco ceiling fan was
installed by a qualified A-Grade Electrician and in compliance with Australian law must be
provided for the warranty claim to be processed. The most acceptable form of evidence
is the certificate of electrical compliance issued by the electrician.
• Proof of Purchase – Proof of purchase from an authorised retailer specifying the fan
model and purchase date (such as a tax invoice) must by supplied for the warranty claim
to be processed.
• Ceiling Fan must be installed for in home warranty to apply – The Fanco Ceiling fan must
have been installed by a qualified electrician and must remain installed for the in home
warranty service to apply. If there is an issue with the wiring, the fan should be left
installed without the wiring connected.
• Outdoor Installation – This product is approved for use outdoors in well covered areas
where rain will not wet any part of the fan including the motor, blades, rod or canopy. The
fan must be installed at least 1.5m from the end of the blade to the edge of the roof or
eave.
• Reasonable wear and tear – is not covered by warranty. The client should ensure the fan
is regularly cleaned and any screws and blade nuts that become loose through normal
operation are tightened. This is not covered by warranty.
• Domestic/Personal Use only - This product is not designed or intended for industrial or
commercial use and therefore the warranty will not cover such use.
• Purchase from Authorised Retailer– In order for the warranty to apply, the Fanco Ceiling
fan must have been purchased in Australia from an authorised retailer (please see the
Fanco website for a list of authorised retailers).
• Fanco Warranty Applies in Australia Only – Fanco warranty is only available for products
installed and being used in Australia.
• Extra Costs – In-home service warranty will cover access to ceiling fans installed on
standard ceilings where a service person does not require a ladder greater than 2 metres
in height. Australian OH&S legislation may require special measures and protective
equipment be used in situations where people are required to work more than 2m above
floor level or where a hazard exists. Any extra costs incurred to service the ceiling fan
that arise from such situations such as requiring extension ladders, scaffolding or other
non-standard equipment will not be covered by the warranty and must be paid for by the
client.
• Installations with unsafe or impractical access - Fanco and its service agents reserve the
right to refuse service to ceiling fans and their accessories which are deemed by Fanco
warranty claim assessors or Fanco service agents to be unsafe or impractical to access.
In these cases Fanco will still supply a replacement of any faulty products. At Fanco’s
discretion, if a service agent has not already attended the warranty claim, the client may
be reimbursed a standard fee of $95.00 (inc. GST) for using their own electrician.
• Location change - This limited warranty does not cover any damages to hard-wired
products if it is moved from the original location of installation to another during the
warranty period.
