8.1 Warranties explained

Your products are covered by warranties. These protect both the product you had installed and the quality of the installation work. This article explains what is covered and where to find your warranty details.

What is covered

  • The product warranty, from the manufacturer, which covers the product itself.
  • The workmanship warranty, from your Approved Supplier, which covers the quality of the installation.

Where to find your warranty details

Your warranty documents are provided to you after your installation is complete. They set out exactly what is covered, how long the cover lasts, and who to contact if you need to make a claim. Keep them somewhere safe, as you will need them if anything goes wrong.

How long your cover lasts

Warranty periods depend on the product. Under the program, approved products meet minimum warranty requirements, for example at least 10 years on a residential battery, with at least 70 per cent of its capacity retained at 10 years, and at least 5 years on a heat pump or solar water heater, reverse cycle air conditioning, and double glazed windows. Your own warranty documents confirm the exact periods for the products you had installed.

Frequently asked questions
