From the date of original purchase by the end user, all main building components, when properly installed, on a Span-Tech approved foundation, are covered by a two(2) year unconditional warranty for defects in material and workmanship. In addition, after the two(2) year warranty period, the following components are covered by an additional fourteen(14) year pro-rated warranty: main fabric and main steel components including single tube roof arches, double tube trusses, connectors, purlins and stringers. During this fourteen(14) year period, the end user/original owner shall pay the suggested retail price of the warrantable component at the date of the claim less one hundred sixty-eighth of the price for each full month remaining in the warranty period. Rope, webbing, solid end fabric and fabric door components(including door fabric, cable, cable clamps, door tubing, winches and pulleys) are covered by a six(6) month only warranty. Warranty is limited to the repair or replacement of warrantable components and does not include component removal or reinstallation or the cost to transport and retrieve warrantable components for repair. Note: It is the responsibility of the end user/original owner to establish that the foundation design and construction is in compliance with the foundation design supplied by and/or approved by Span-Tech.
For buildings erected on non-approved foundations, walls, pads, etc., the warranty is as in paragraph one except that the unconditional warranty period is two(2) years and the pro-rated warranty period is eight(8) years, a total of 10 years. Span-Tech repair parts including fabric components are covered by a one(1) year warranty if those repairs are installed on a Span-Tech building. Span-Tech repair parts including fabric components are covered by a ninety(90) day warranty if those repairs are installed on a non-Span-Tech building.
The warranty does not cover component damage due to the quality of foundation, wall or pad construction; nor damage caused to the building site or surrounding areas by the construction of the building. Dealers and end users are advised to obtain qualified engineering advice on the suitability of the soil at the building site. Dealers and end users are advised that unusual or abnormal soil conditions including but not limited to sandy soils, springs, sinks, underground streams and so forth will affect the foundation requirements. Unless specifically doing so in writing, Hawkeye Steel Products, Inc., Pride of the Farm, Span-tech and all related entities do not express an opinion about the suitability of building sites, foundations, wall, pads and the like for the construction of a Span-Tech building.
There is no warranty for buildings that have been disassembled and moved from their original locations. The end user/original owner may be asked to supply documentation verifying that the building has not been moved from its original location. There is no warranty for component loss or damage during transport. The warranty does not cover damage caused by natural and environmental conditions(acts of God); puncture or tear damage to the tarpaulin components caused by penetration of mechanical or other foreign objects; rodent damage; costs associated with the loss of time and/or inconvenience or any other consequential damages; injury; loss of profit, life, contents inside the building; malfunction resulting from misuse; unauthorized alteration or negligence; damage or corrosion resulting from salt, chemicals or other corrosive materials piled against the fabric, steel or other components; or, damage caused by lack of maintenance(such as not periodically re-tightening the main fabric, solid ends or doors or re-tightening the cables).
In accepting this warranty, dealer and end user acknowledge that they are in receipt of “Procedures for
Checking the Tightness of Main Fabric Canvas on Span-Tech Buildings” & “Procedures for Checking Cabling in Your Span-Tech Building”. The standard fabric in a Span-Tech Building is not fire retardant. There is no warranty for any damage, loss or other problems caused by fire, or cinders nor for costs associated with fire regulation zoning compliance.
