Warranty Information and Procedures
Prior to October 1, 2008: within 12 months of September 30, 2008, any unit purchased is still covered under the warranty program that was in place at the time, which included 12-month Return to Factory for repair.
Effective October 1, 2008, OZONE JOES began offering "Spare in the Air" Extended Warranty, which ensures the user a replacement unit will be sent within 48 hours of approved RMA. (Return Materials Authorization)
Standard Warranty after October 1, 2008, is the first 30 days after product purchase is warranted with 48 hour replacement shipment guarantee. The remaining 11 months of the first year are covered as return to factory for repair with no replacement unless Extended Warranty has been purchased.
Extended Warranty on Ozone Joes equipment may be purchased for up to 3 years and includes "Spare in the Air" service. Extended warranty, when purchased during the first year provides the customer with a loaner replacement unit shipped within 48 hours of issued RMA as an option to Standard Warranty return to factory for repair service. Read more about our Extended Warranty.
The "Spare in the Air" Extended Warranty pricing for Year 1 is 10% of published equipment list price. Year 2 is 15% and Year 3 is 15% of list price. If all 3 years of extended warranty are purchased within 60 days of equipment purchase, a 10% discount will be given on years 2 and 3, making all 3 years equal to 30% of list price.
