We know that sometimes things go wrong so we provide a one year warranty on the board and all parts and accessories in our packages. This means you are covered for any manufacturing faults on all parts for up to a year from purchase.
General Terms and Conditions
Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law.
You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and compensation for any other
reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or
replaced if the goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure.
If a product is found to be defective by Aquaplanet, they will take the appropriate action, as required by law.
What does the warranty apply to?
Only products purchased directly from the Aquaplanet website and from Authorised Aquaplanet resellers. Warranties cannot be transferred.
The warranty is void if any modification or alteration has been made to the product without authorisation from Aquaplanet in writing.
If a repair or replacement has taken place, the Warranty only applies for the remainder of the period from the original purchase date.
Repairs will be completed subject to available parts. We will do our best to match the original product, but we cannot guarantee that you will receive the exact product back.
If you have not purchased directly from Aquaplanet, any warranty claims must be supported by the original purchase receipt, clearly identifying the Authorised seller.
If a defect is found in the materials or craftsmanship, we will complete a repair, free of charge or replace at our discretion.
This warranty is in addition to and does not affect your legal rights under laws.
