Products That Do Not Qualify For An RMA (Return Merchandise Authorization) |
Products that do not qualify for an RMA include, but are not limited to:
- Installed Products
As it is not possible for POOLplaza to have full knowledge of complete details of your pool system, we cannot accept responsibility for merchandise that is not compatible or does not function with your system. We always recommend that the buyers contact the manufactures directly to determine that the product will be suitable in their environment, if in doubt. Buyer assumes all responsibility without exception, outside of a manufacturer's stated return policy or warranty. We apologize, but this is due to the huge variety and complexity of pool systems and pool products. We have found that in the majority of cases where a product does not work as desired, it is not due to a product defect, but rather the wrong product or problem with the buyer's system. If you need the number of a manufacturer that is not yet on our links page, please email us and we will forward that information to you promptly.
- Products shipped internationally (Anywhere except the 50 states)
