Limited Warranty:
Effective June 1, 2014 Dado Lighting warrants to purchaser that its products have been carefully manufactured and inspected to be free of defects of workmanship and materials when installed and used as intended.

Dado Lighting at its sole and non-reviewable discretion will (i) repair, or replace, FOB factory, freight prepaid any Dado Lighting product defective in workmanship or materials or (ii) refund the purchase price of the affected fixtures pro-rated over the warranty period. Such repair, replacement or refund is the exclusive remedy against Dado Lighting, and is limited to five years from the date of shipment for our 24v LED products and for two years for our 12v LED products. Repair or replacement does not extend the warranty period.
The purchaser must notify Dado Lighting of a warranty claim covered by this limited warranty within thirty (30) days of the date any alleged defect occurred, and such notice must be accompanied by the relevant proof of purchase, including purchase order or corresponding invoice. Any notices to Dado Lighting must be in writing and addressed to the Customer Service Department of Dado Lighting at the U.S. address listed on Dado Lighting’s web site, www.dadolighting.com or emailed to cs@dadolighting.com. Dado Lighting will not accept any charge-backs, nor will any labor or material costs be reimbursed without prior written approval from Dado Lighting.
Drivers are covered by separate manufacturers’ warranties. Dado Lighting does not make any warranties as to drivers and will accept no responsibility or liability therefore. This warranty does not apply to products that have been modified, improperly installed or used in conditions other than which they are intended. No person, agent or distributor is authorized to give any other warranty on behalf of Dado Lighting.
Other than as explicitly set forth herein, there are no warranties, express or implied, that apply to this sale, including, without limitation, any warranty of merchantability or of fitness for a particular purpose. To the extent that any implied warranties may nonetheless exist by operation of law, any such warranties are limited to the duration of this warranty. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms of this limited warranty and any applicable state law, the state law shall govern.
The warranty provided shall apply exclusively on the condition that the products are used in accordance with the given product and application specifications (data sheets) and that they have been installed and placed in service in a proper workmanlike manner (strictly according to the installation instructions enclosed with the product if installation instructions are provided and, if no installation instructions are provided, in accordance with guidelines as specified by Dado Lighting, which guidelines will be provided upon request, and within all applicable guidelines and requirements of any applicable state, local or other building and electrical codes applicable to the installation of lighting fixtures and related lighting products); provided temperature and voltage limits are not exceeded and the product has not been exposed to any mechanical stresses and strains outside the normal, intended purpose. The warranty exclusively covers product failures that were caused by proven defects in material, design or production as well as failure rates exceeding the nominal, acceptable failure rate. In case of electronic control gear and/or components such as LEDs, the nominal failure rate is 0.2%/1000 burning hours, unless the nominal service life and nominal failure rate of a gear or of a component are defined otherwise in the product and application specifications (data sheet).
THIS WARRANTY IS VOID IF THE DAMAGE TO THE DADO LIGHTING PRODUCT (i) WAS CAUSED BY LIGHTNING OR OTHER ACTS OF GOD OUTSIDE OF DADO LIGHTING’S CONTROL; (ii) RESULTS FROM ANY VOLTAGE EMANATING FROM OUTSIDE OF THE FIXTURE OR DADO LIGHTING PRODUCT IN EXCESS OF THE RATED VOLTAGE or (iii) THE PROPER ESD (electrostatic discharge) PROCEDURES ARE NOT FOLLOWED PRIOR TO HANDLING THE LED BOARD.
Dado Lighting shall have the sole and non-reviewable discretion to determine if a product does, in fact, contain a defect in accordance with the limited warranty. Any and all repair, replacement products or replacement parts may contain new or recycled materials, which are equivalent to new products or parts in respect of performance and reliability. The dimensions and the design of the replacement product may deviate to a minor (justifiable) extent from those of the original product. “Recycled materials” are parts of products that have been used or overhauled and are not new. Although such parts or products are not new, they are in a “like new” condition as regards performance and reliability after having been overhauled or repaired. The functionality of any and all replacement products or replacement parts is equivalent to that of the product or part to be replaced. Dado Lighting warrants the replacement products or replacement parts will not have any defects in material or manufacturing defects for the remaining duration of the applicable warranty period and such replacement products and parts will carry a minimum 90-day warranty.
This warranty does not apply to any ancillary costs incurred in connection with remedying the defects (such as, for instance, the costs of installation and dismantling, transport of the defective and of the repaired and/or new product to or from Dado Lighting; disposal, mileage, travel time, hoisting engines, scaffolding, lost income, business interruption etc.). All such ancillary costs, without limitation, shall be borne by the purchaser making the warranty claim.
This warranty shall expire immediately if the purchaser or a third party makes any changes to or performs any repair work on the products without Dado Lighting’s prior written consent or if the product is installed inappropriately or by non-qualified staff. Dado Lighting does not assume any liability in excess of this limited warranty as expressly stated herein. This limited warranty runs in favor only of the actual purchaser of the product from Dado Lighting and may not be assigned to any third party(s) without Dado Lighting’s advance, written approval. Adequate records of operating history, maintenance, and/or testing must be kept by the purchaser and provided to Dado Lighting upon request.
Additional information concerning LED products: LED products, by their nature, are very sensitive to heat. Installation and operation must be within the product guidelines and, if no installation instructions are provided, in a good and workmanlike manner by competent installers. LED products must be installed in applications where ambient temperatures are within the range of specified operating temperatures and are operated within the electrical values shown on the LED driver. Any questions about installation should be directed to Dado Lighting prior to any installation. The LED arrays in the Product(s) will be considered defective in material or workmanship only if a total of 15% or more of the individual light emitting diodes in the Product(s) fail to illuminate. Additionally, a reduction in luminous flux is normal as long as the relevant value does not fall below 0.6%/1000h burning hours. A luminous flux within that range is considered normal and not a defect. Due to technical progress and changes in the luminous flux of products that is caused by their use, subsequent deliveries of LED light sources may have light properties deviating from those of the original products. Dado Lighting warrants that the initial LED Correlated Color Temperature (CCT) at the time of shipment will be within described parameters as stated in the Dado Lighting product specification sheet. If the product specification sheet specifies a certain Correlated Color Temperature only and not parameters, Dado Lighting warrants that the CCT will be within 10% of that CCT, or within the range specified on the specification sheet at the time of shipment. Dado Lighting further warrants that the initial luminous flux will be within 10% of the range specified in the specification sheet at the time of shipping. Dado Lighting will not be responsible for any color shift in LED modules installed in Dado Lighting fixtures. Color changes or shifts in LED lighting are a natural consequence of LED lighting and shall not be considered a defect covered by this limited warranty.

Notwithstanding the term of any limited warranty or any warranty implied by law, or in the event that any limited warranty fails of its essential purpose, in no event will Dado Lighting’s entire liability exceed the purchase price of this product. Some States do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation may not apply to a particular sale.
