Warranty documents

What voids or limits the warranty

  • The warranty is void in its entirety if the serial number on the unit or the compressor is altered, removed or defaced.
  • No returns or reimbursable charges are accepted without prior authorization from Wine Guardian.
  • Coverage applies under normal use and service; installation, electrical work and maintenance should follow Wine Guardian's documentation and be performed by qualified personnel familiar with local codes.

How to make a warranty claim

  1. Have the details ready: model, serial number, original invoice date and a description of the fault.
  2. Contact Wine Guardian technical support for authorization before any repair, return or labor; unauthorized work is not reimbursed.
  3. Need the manual or a part number first? The Manuals page lists documentation by model, and Parts lists replacement components. Wine Guardian Dealer helps identify both.

Warranty terms are set by Wine Guardian, the manufacturer, and are summarized here from the current Standard and Platinum Warranty documents (Rev. 1.15.26). The documents themselves govern; download them above.
