Defects & Warranties
Each product is covered by its Manufacturer’s Warranty and each has their own policies.  Cli-MAX is happy to assist customers in their warranty returns. However Cli-MAX does not provide any direct warranty on items sold.

WARRANTY
Manufacturers offer warranty periods which cover against merchandise defects. If you can't determine if a warranty is available for a specific item or the length of its warranty, contact us via email or call us.  All Warranties must be returned to the manufacturer for warranty. Cli-MAX does not offer any warranties unless specifically specified.

Please note warranty processing may take up to 2-8 weeks, subject to the individual manufacturer's policies, response time and discretion. However, by sending your item directly to the manufacturer for warranty work, it generally cuts "turn-around" time by 8-10 days as it eliminates double shipping. Manufacturer warranties do not cover defects determined to be caused by normal wear or due to customer negligence. Additionally, repair or replacement is at the manufacturer’s discretion.

DAMAGED GOODS
Please let us know ASAP if any goods arrive damaged.  Damaged goods claims are handled through the shipping carrier (UPS, FedEx, USPS).  We will assist our customers in these claims. We only ask that customers have patience as sometimes this process can take longer than any of us would prefer. Note, when making a claim, you must retain/keep the original shipping container in which the merchandise was shipped. Without it, it is difficult to make a claim.

Free Shipping and/or shipping prices quoted at checkout apply to lower 48 States only.  Select items & Oversized items will still incur surcharges where applicable.

If outside the lower 48 States and you hit the Free Shipping dollar amount, the only shipping charge incurred will be the premium above the lower 48's shipping standard rates and you will be notified in advance of addtional shipping fees.
