1. WHAT THE LIMITED WARRANTY COVERS AND FOR HOW LONG
a) PRODUCT DEFINITION:
THERMA-TRU DOOR SYSTEM ("Product") consists of a Therma-Tru
®
genuine Therma-Tru components: sidelites, any applied or inserted panels, dentil shelf, divider bars on doors and sidelites, glass lite inserts with
®
Therma-Tru logo glass temper blaze, wood grilles, hinges, weather-stripping, door bottom gaskets (sweep), rain deflector, rain guard, sill pan, screens,
®
internal grids, corner seal pads, door sill, astragal, and multi-point locking system door handles and lockset (on fiberglass Products only). This Limited
Warranty applies only when all of these parts are genuine Therma-Tru
to door jambs, mull posts, brickmould and mull casing, and steel Product's locking systems are not covered by this Limited Warranty.
b) COVERAGE:
Subject to the limitations and exclusions below, and for the duration of the applicable stated Warranty Period, Therma-Tru warrants that Products purchased
and installed in the USA or Canada:
NON-GLASS COMPONENTS: are free from non-conformities in material and workmanship. All hinges in fiberglass and steel Product and multi-point locking
systems installed in a fiberglass Product are also warranted against non-conformities in the mechanical and locking mechanism (excluding (i) installations
within five (5) miles of a body of salt water, (ii) the finish, and (iii) multi-point locking systems installed in steel Products). See paragraph 2a "WHAT THIS
LIMITED WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER" for clarification.
GLASS COMPONENTS: are free from non-conformities in material and workmanship resulting in internal glazing failure, seal failure, internal insert slippage
and permanent and material visual obstruction from moisture or dust film formation in the air space of the sealed glass unit.
NOTES ABOUT TIMELY FINISHING OF DOOR SYSTEMS:
• For continued warranty coverage, all fiberglass Therma-Tru
all steel Therma-Tru door systems (Products) must be finished within several days of the installation date. However, all bare or unprotected wood
surfaces (such as door frames) on all steel and fiberglass Products (note: including any bare or unprotected wood surfaces used or exposed by
builders, contractors, dealers or distributors on or in conjunction with the Products) should be primed and painted or stained and top coated within the
lesser of 2 weeks of installation or exposure to weather. All doors must have all 6 sides finished (note: If a genuine Therma-Tru
(sweep) is properly applied by the builder, contractor, dealer, or distributor to the bottom edge of the door, then only the 5 remaining sides of the door
require finishing.) For all doors – sides, top and bottom – must be inspected and maintained as regularly as the front and back face surfaces.
• Improper or untimely finishing of the Product by the Warranty Holder or its agents (i) increases the chance for Product damage of the type which is
NOT COVERED by this Limited Warranty and (ii) increases the preparatory work that must be performed by the Warranty Holder or its agents in order
to properly finish and maintain the Product in a manner not inconsistent with Therma-Tru's recommendations and instructions. This is particularly a
consideration for steel Products.
