YOUR ICONIC FAN WARRANTY

Warranty for your *Iconic Fan Co. product is provided by the product distributor in the Australian state or territory where the fan was purchased. 

Prior to contacting your Iconic Distributor in connection with a warranty question, please ensure you have the following information available:

    • Model Name / Product Number (as shown on the installation guide)
    • Date and location of purchase, including the original purchase receipt issued to you at the time of purchase
    • The name, telephone number and license details of the qualified licensed electrician who installed the product.

Installing Electricians who are experiencing problems installing the product or who cannot get the product to operate correctly once installed must read the 'Trouble-Shooting Section' of the installation guide. 

SELECTING THE RIGHT CEILING FAN

It is important that you select your fan carefully as fans that do not perform as expected and which are not faulty cannot be replaced or exchanged under warranty.  To obtain the best performance from a ceiling fan, it is crucial that the correct size of fan is properly installed in the optimum location. We cannot arrange for, or cover the cost of, an in-home visit by service personnel in relation to the airflow or other performance of your product except in cases where, following over the telephone trouble shooting, our authorised representative has determined that such issues may be a direct result of a manufacturing defect (material or workmanship). 

PROTECT YOUR WARRANTY

Your warranty will be void if the product is installed by persons not qualified to carry out such work. Ensure your ceiling fan is installed by a qualified licensed electrician.  You will be required to provide the details of the installing electrician’s name and license number in the event that you wish to make any claim for warranty.

MAINTAIN YOUR CEILING FAN

Your ceiling fan requires regular cleaning with a damp cloth to avoid the build-up of dust and other atmospheric particles that lead to corrosion.  Failure to regularly maintain your fan may result in corrosion to the finish and such damage is not covered by warranty.

MANUFACTURERS’ WARRANTY

Fan Motor

The authorised distributor for Iconic Fan Company Pty Ltd (Iconic Distributor) warrants to the original purchaser (You) of each Iconic Ceiling Fan that if any part of the fan motor, excluding Remote Controls, wall control switches and/or capacitors, fails due to a manufacturing defect (material or workmanship) at any time for a period of 5 years (2 years in-home) from the date of purchase then the Iconic Distributor will provide a replacement part to you free of charge. Ceiling fans that have been moved from the original installation location are not covered by this warranty.

In the event that the fan motor should fail at any time within 5 years from the date of original purchase due to a manufacturing defect (material or workmanship), and you immediately report such defect, the Iconic Distributor will supply parts and provide labour to rectify the defect.  Such defects do not include non-structural corrosion damage of components such as surface rust, scratches or minor rust on leading or trailing edges of blades. 

Remote & Wall Controls

In the event that the Wall Control unit and/or capacitor, Remote Control Transmitter and/or Receiver should fail at any time within 12 months from the original purchase date due to a manufacturing defect, and you immediately report such defect, the Iconic Distributor will supply parts and provide labour to rectify the defect.  Should the defect be the result of incorrect installation and/or misuse of the product, or failure to use the product in accordance with the product instructions, you will be charged for replacement parts and the cost of labour to rectify the defect. Any defect of whatsoever nature that may occur after 12 months from the original date of purchase is not covered by warranty, and you will be charged for replacement parts and the cost of labour to rectify such defects.  

IMPORTANT NOTE:  Remote Control / Wall Control Units

The remote control receiver is not part of the fan, instead being a separately connected accessory device. The remote control receiver is often fitted into the fan mounting bracket for convenience but is not an integral part of the fan and not covered by the warranty provisions of the fan itself. Resetting of DIP switches in a remote hand piece or receiver is not covered by warranty and a service call fee will apply. A service guide explaining how to find and set the correct DIP code is available on request. Batteries (if supplied), are done so on complimentary basis and form no part of this warranty.

In the event that an Accessory Light Kit should fail at any time within 12 months from the original date of purchase due to a manufacturing and/or material defect (excluding corrosion), and you immediately report such defect, the Iconic Distributor will supply parts and provide labour to rectify the defect.  

This does not extend to light globes. Globes (if supplied), are done on a complimentary basis and form no part of this warranty.
