and Simonton Industries, Inc. (hereinafter, “Simonton”), warrants that the
Product will be free from non-conformities in material and workmanship.
Simonton will (1) repair or replace any Product that fails to meet this Limited
Warranty and (2) pay the reasonable costs of labor (only valid for products
installed in Washington, Oregon, California, Nevada, Arizona and Hawaii)
required to repair or replace any such defective Product (excluding screens
and hardware that property owners are commonly capable of installing) of a
Residential Warranty Holder that is installed up to an elevation of not more
than three (3) stories (for Product installations over three stories contact
Simonton for warranty consideration); provided in either case, Simonton
may refund the purchase price (the lesser of the original Product/component

Warranty Period
Residential Warranty Holder: Double-Lifetime
Limited Warranty The Lifetime Limited Warranty (excluding Factory-
Applied Exterior Coating coverage for vinyl Product and Factory-Applied Paint
Finish coverage for fiberglass hinged patio door Product) is transferable by the
original Residential Warranty Holder once either (a) to a subsequent Residential
owner and the Residential Warranty Period will continue (“Double Lifetime”),
or (b) to a subsequent Commercial/Multi-Resident owner and the Commercial
Warranty Period will apply only until the 10th anniversary of the original
purchase date of the Product; and in either case for such shorter period if it is
expressly stated in this Limited Warranty for the Product component, and only
if the Warranty has been properly transferred following the procedure set forth
below. The 10-year Limited Warranty for Factory-Applied Exterior Coating for
vinyl Product and 20-year Factory-Applied Paint Finish Coverage for fiberglass
hinged patio doors) is transferable by the original Residential Warranty Holder
once until the 10th anniversary of the purchase of the vinyl Product (20th
anniversary of the purchase of the fiberglass hinged patio door Product) and
either (a) to a subsequent Residential owner and the Residential Warranty
Period will continue for any balance of the Warranty Period (10 years vinyl
Product; 20 years fiberglass hinged patio door Product) of the original
Warranty Holder, or (b) to a subsequent Commercial/Multi-Resident
owner of vinyl Product and the Commercial Warranty Period will
continue only until the three (3) year anniversary of the purchase of the
vinyl Product by the original Warranty Holder (Note: the 20-year Limited
Warranty for Factory-Applied Paint Finish on fiberglass hinged patio door
Product is not transferable to a Commercial/Multi-Resident Warranty
Holder). In each case, transferability will be effective only if the Warranty
has been properly transferred following the procedure set forth below.
Commercial/Multi-Resident Warranty Holder: 10 years (excluding
Factory-Applied Exterior Coating coverage for vinyl Product; note: the
Factory-Applied Paint Finish coverage for fiberglass hinged patio door
Product does NOT apply to Commercial/Multi-Residential Warranty
Holders) from the earlier of the date Product was shipped from Simonton
or an authorized dealer; transferable to successor non-Residential
owners during and for any balance of the 10-year Warranty Period
and only if the Warranty has been properly transferred following the
procedure set forth below. The three (3) year Factory-Applied Exterior
Coating Limited Warranty on vinyl Product applies from the earlier of the
date Product was shipped from Simonton or an authorized dealer; NOT
transferable.
Warranty Transfer
Any Warranty Transfer described above will be deemed effective only if
the following procedures are completed: (1) written notice is provided to
Simonton within 30 days after the transfer of ownership of the premises
where the Products are installed, (2) delivered to Simonton Windows,
5300 Briscoe Road, P.O. Box 1646, Parkersburg, WV 26102-1646, (3)
accompanied by a copy of this Limited Warranty and the Product order
number (bar code located in the sash head, sill or jamb of each Product).
Warranty Holder Classifications
Residential Warranty Holders: If the Product is installed in (1) a new
residential dwelling and the first occupant owns the dwelling or (2)
an existing owner-occupied residential dwelling, and in each case, at
the time of installation such owner is also responsible for Product
replacement, then that owner is a Residential Warranty Holder. For
example, assume the Product is installed in a condominium unit
(a “dwelling”) in a multi-resident building. If the first occupant of the
condominium unit is the first owner of that unit and is also responsible
for Product replacement, then that owner is a Residential Warranty
Holder; however, if the owner is not the first occupant or if someone
else other than the owner (for example, the condominium association) is
responsible for Product replacement, then the owner is not a Residential
Warranty Holder.
Commercial/Multi-Resident Warranty Holders: If the Product is
installed under conditions in which no one qualifies as a Residential
Warranty Holder as described above, then the warranty holder is the
owner of the dwelling or building in which the Product has been installed
