The Metal Window (TMW), limits quotations and acceptance of orders to the Customer / Consumer’s acceptance of the terms as listed below:

‍
1. The Quotation or Sales Confirmation, including these Terms & Conditions, other notes and any noted attachments hereto, contains the complete and final agreement between The Metal Window and the Customer/Consumer. Reference to the Customer’s quotation request/Purchase Order, if noted, shall not affect terms and conditions and will not be binding upon TMW unless signed by a TMW employee.
2. TMW makes no claims to meeting any job specifications other than those specifically addressed in the Quotation or Sales Order Confirmation and related Shop Drawings, regardless of TMW’s knowledge and/or verbal acknowledgment of the requirement of these specifications.
3. TMW makes no claims to any product performance other than that shown. The product performance as previously tested is to be assumed. At the discretion of TMW, test reports may be provided to substantiate performance claims. If such data is inadequate, it is the responsibility of the Customer to secure “adequate” data prior to TMW’s acceptance of the order. Failure to do so absolves TMW of the burden of performance proof. Any subsequent testing required, will be paid for, in total, by the Buyer. It is the responsibility of the Customer to request confirmation of product performances. Such requests are to be made in writing.
4. The arrangement arising pursuant to the Quotation or Order shall be governed by the laws of the State of California. No rights, remedies, and warranties available to TMW under this agreement or by operation of law are waived or modified by TMW in writing.

13. TMW furnishes a LIMITED FIVE (5) Year Material and Workmanship Warranty for all Windows and Doors. This warranty is VOID if Windows and/or Door Styles/Sizes requested by customer are beyond TMW’s normal manufacturing limits. All TMW products are intended to be installed by a C-17 glazing contractor. Warranty is void if installed by anyone other than a C-17 glazing contractor. All products must be installed in accordance with the supplied installation instructions. Failure to comply in all respects with these instructions will void the warranty. Any changes to the standard warranty are to be negotiated prior to, and made part of, the written Sales Confirmation.
Pursuant to the stipulations of TMW Warranty and the Terms and Conditions that are made part hereof, damaged or defective materials returned to the factory freight pre-paid, within the warranty period, will be repaired or replaced at the discretion of TMW, free of charge.

Reimbursement for labor and/or other costs involved with the removal of the damaged or defective materials and the installations of the replacement materials is specifically excluded from the TMW warranty. Under no circumstances will any on-site repairs or replacements be made by TMW. TMW passes along the manufacturer’s five (5) year warranty on dual units of glass. This warranty covers replacement of the defective units only, installation labor cost to change the glass is not covered.
14. Any lead times quoted prior to receipt of an order, are for information ONLY and may NOT be deemed binding. The estimated ship date for an order is indicated on the Sales Confirmation.

Project time restraints and subsequent penalties are not acceptable reasons for unauthorized corrective action and subsequent back charges. All such charges will be denied.
18. TMW refuses all field testing requirements. If successful passage of a field test is an order contingency, TMW respectfully refuses to accept all orders including such a condition. Any field testing done to TMW products is done so against our wishes, and any failure and consequent ramifications are the sole responsibility of the Customer. See Item 3
