WARRANTY INFORMATION
All warranty transactions must be accompanied by proof of original purchase from an Authorized Apeks
Dealer or Distributor. Be sure to save your sales receipt, and present it whenever returning your BC for
warranty service.
LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY
Warranty coverage on buoyancy compensators covers the product throughout its useful life, subject to
the conditions listed below and utilizes a pro-rated replacement policy*.
Apeks warrants to the original purchaser for the useful life of the product, from the date of purchase,
that the product will be free from defects in materials and workmanship, provided that it receives
normal use, proper care and prescribed dealer service subject to the limitations listed below. The
Limited Lifetime Warranty is extended only to the original purchaser for purchases made from an
Authorized Apeks Dealer or Distributor and is not transferable. This warranty is limited to repair or
replacement only at the discretion of Apeks.
* PRODUCT REPLACEMENT ON A PRORATED BASIS
Products under the Limited Lifetime Warranty that malfunction due to material or manufacturer defects
that have also had a significant amount of use will be replaced on a prorated basis. Prorating will be
determined by a percentage factor based on the condition of the product and how long the product
was used prior to the warranty claim. This can be useful to evaluate Limited Lifetime Warranty claims
since the warranty period is for the “useful life of the product” and not a set length of time. The following
guidelines should be used in determining what prorated percentage will be used.
NOTE: This can be a subjective evaluation. Fair and reasonable judgment should be used.
