This warranty is in addition to your statutory rights. Most of our customers contract with us as a business, for example a managing agent, RMC, RTM company, freeholder or developer. If you contract in the course of business, your statutory protections come from the Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982 and the Sale of Goods Act 1979, and you generally have up to six years from the date of any breach to bring a claim, under the Limitation Act 1980. If you are a consumer, your rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 apply in full and are not affected by this warranty.

1. Plain Language Summary

Future Group (“we”, “us”, “our”) stands by the quality of our products and services.

We offer:

• 5-Year Parts & Labour Warranty – when the product is installed, maintained, and tested by us in accordance with our recommended schedule throughout the 5-year period.
• Standard 2-Year Parts-Only Warranty – if the product is not maintained and tested by us during that time.

This warranty is in addition to your statutory rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015. These rights entitle you to a repair, replacement, or refund if the product is faulty, not of satisfactory quality, or not as described, for up to six years in England & Wales (five years in Scotland) from purchase. Your legal rights are not affected by this warranty.

• The product was supplied and installed by us (or an authorised Future Group installer).
• All scheduled maintenance and testing have been carried out by us without interruption during the 5-year period.

2.2 2-Year Parts-Only Warranty – applies where:

• The product is supplied by us but maintained or tested by others.
• We have not carried out all scheduled servicing in the 5-year period.

2.3 Warranty Period
The warranty period starts from the date of installation.
Replacement parts provided under warranty will be covered for the remainder of the original warranty term.

5. Our Liability

Nothing in this warranty limits our liability for:

• Death or personal injury caused by our negligence.
