GENERAL WARRANTY POLICY
All barebone kits and custom systems (assembled by TierraTek) include a 1-year limited warranty. The warranty covers the product to be free from defects in material and workmanship for 1 year. This warranty may be extended by contract for up to 5 years total. Damages due to abuse, misuse, accident, improper handling, neglect, alterations, or unauthorized repair or modifications will void warranty. Warranty servicing includes diagnostics and service for repair, replacement and/or substitution as may be appropriate. Return authorization is required for all returns.
Individual peripherals and components are under manufacturer warranty. TierraTek will help facilitate the warranty, which is the extent of our obligation unless alternate agreement has been made at the time of order. Manufacturer warranty for components and barebones kits ranges from 1 to 5 years, or even lifetime warranty in some cases, and TierraTek will be glad to help you apply for the warranty at the manufacturer after our warranty period expires.
