PowerFilm® Limited Warranty
This warranty supersedes all warranty statements dated prior to June 23, 2005. PowerFilm® integrated solar modules are warranted to be free from defects in materials and workmanship and to provide at least 80% of rated minimum power for a period indicated in the PowerFilm Warranty Information Table below. The duration of the Limited Warranty is from the date of initial purchase from PowerFilm Inc. The foregoing warranty does not apply to any modules which have been subject to misuse, unauthorized modifications, neglect, improper testing, attempts to repair, or by accident, fire or other hazard. PowerFilm's sole obligation and liability for modules failing to comply with this warranty shall be, at PowerFilm's choice, either to supply replacement modules or to credit the amount due for such nonconforming modules, provided that the warranty procedures have been followed. For purposes of clarity, the module warranty is only on the modules shipped as is by PowerFilm. The warranty for modules that have been laminated is the sole responsibility of the party doing the lamination. If a party other than PowerFilm laminates a module, PowerFilm's module warranty is voided once the module has been laminated.
