30 Year Limited Warranty
Only those affected areas which are validated by PPG to have a warrantable defect will be covered under this Limited Warranty. PPG’s
obligations under this Limited Warranty, including reimbursement for paint and reasonable labor costs shall in no event exceed the purchase price
of the original Product associated with the specific job which gives rise to a claim under this Limited Warranty. For cost of labor as outlined in
b) and c) above, PPG will only be responsible for reimbursing the Machine Applicator for reasonable labor costs actually incurred to repair the
affected product up to a maximum labor rate of $1.25 U.S. per square foot based on the two dimensional affected surface area.
In order for this Limited Warranty to be operative, (a) the Machine Applicator must have applied the Product in accordance with the
specifications described above and (b) all cut ends of the siding must be field-coated during siding installation using the same PPG coating
system applied to the rest of the board, unless an alternative system is specifically approved by PPG, in writing. ANY FAILURE TO COMPLY
WITH THE FOREGOING SHALL CAUSE THIS LIMITED WARRANTY TO BE NULL AND VOID. Any coating or coated product where
the Product is found to be unsatisfactory, prior to application or installation, for any reason, MUST NOT be applied or installed and should be
returned to the manufacturer for replacement product. PPG will have no responsibility under this Limited Warranty if non-conforming Product is
knowingly installed. This Limited Warranty does not apply to damage or failure caused by excessive warping, cupping, splitting, cracking, and
shrinkage of the siding or trim material (as defined by industry standards), breakdown of the underlying substrate, failure or breakdown of the
primer overlay; falling objects; faulty or improper storage, handling, and installation; lack of proper maintenance; accidental damage; structural
