What We Will Do...

Upon receiving your notification, JELD-WEN will send out an acknowledgement within three business days.

If it is determined that the product does not have a defect covered by the warranty, JELD-WEN may charge an inspection fee for any onsite inspection that is required or requested by you. Because manufacturing materials and techniques can change, replacement part(s) may not be an aesthetic match to the original. If JELD-WEN is unable to provide replacement and repair is not practicable or cannot be made timely, then JELD-WEN will refund the purchase price. This guarantee gives you specific legal rights, and you may have other rights that vary from state to state.

WHAT THIS WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER

JELD-WEN is not liable for:

Normal wear and tear; and natural weathering of surfaces and/or hardware finishes (e.g. corrosion).

Damage caused by chemicals (e.g. brick wash) or a harsh environment (e.g. salt spray or airborne pollutants).

Glass breakage; failure due to misuse or abuse; and damage caused by failure to provide maintenance, by alteration or modification to the window (e.g. customer applied tints or films, paint finishes, security systems), or as a result of any cause beyond the control of JELD-WEN (e.g. fire, flood, earthquake, other acts of nature).

Slight imperfections or wavy distortions in the glass that don't impair structural integrity. Note: wavy distortions in the glass (e.g. related to laminate interlayer or heat strengthening of glass) are not considered a defect.

Improper installation not in conformance with JELD-WEN installation instructions; problems related to water and/or air infiltration/leaking as a result of improper installation or flaws in building design or construction.

Damage or poor product performance resulting from installation into a condition that exceeds product design standards and/or certified performance specifications and/or is not in compliance with building codes.

Damage caused by extreme temperature buildup where storm doors/windows are present.

Condensation (Note: unless due to insulating glass failure, most condensation problems are related to excessive humidity levels in a structure. Contact a heating/air conditioning specialist for help).

Labor and materials for repainting or refinishing activities.

Incidental or consequential damage. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so this may not apply to you.
