When Does Warranty Coverage Begin?
Warranty coverage begins on the “installation date.” The installation date is one of three dates depending on the circumstances of purchase:

For units installed in a newly constructed residence, the installation date is the date the owner purchases the residence from the builder.
For units installed in existing residences, the installation date is the date that the unit is originally installed.
If the date the owner purchases the residence from the builder or the date the unit is originally installed cannot be verified, the installation date is three months after the manufacture date. The first four digits of the serial number (YYMM) on the unit indicate the manufacture date. For example, a serial number beginning with “2211” indicates the unit was manufactured in November 2022.

How Long Does Warranty Coverage Last?
Registration is not required to obtain warranty coverage, but registration entitles the owner to the Registered Additional Term Warranty referred to in the following paragraph. If the unit is not registered, the warranty on all parts lasts for a period of up to 5 YEARS after the installation date (the “Initial Term Warranty”).
If the unit is properly registered online within 60 days after the installation date, an additional warranty (the “Registered Additional Term Warranty”) is provided.
Except for units installed in Texas, the Registered Additional Term Warranty lasts for as long as the original registered owner or his or her spouse (“registered owner”) own and reside in the residence in which the unit was originally installed, for a period of up to 10 YEARS after the installation date, for all parts. For units installed in Texas, the Registered Additional Term Warranty lasts for a period of up to 10 YEARS after the installation date for all parts.
Neither the Initial Term Warranty nor the Registered Additional Term Warranty, if applicable, continues after the unit is removed from the location where it was originally installed.
If you are a California or Quebec resident, please refer to the “California And Quebec Residents” section below.
The replacement of a part under this warranty does not extend the warranty period. In other words, Daikin warrants a replacement part only for the period remaining in the applicable warranty on the original part.

What Will Daikin Do To Correct Problems?
Daikin will furnish a replacement part, without charge for the part only, to replace any part that is found to be defective due to workmanship or materials under normal use and maintenance during the warranty period. Furnishing of the replacement part is Daikin’s only responsibility under this warranty.
THE APPLICABLE REMEDIES DESCRIBED IN THIS SECTION ARE DAIKIN’S ONLY RESPONSIBILITIES, AND THE OWNER’S ONLY REMEDIES, FOR ANY BREACH OF THIS WARRANTY OR ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY.

What Won’t Daikin Do To Correct Problems?
Daikin will not pay for:

Labor, freight, or any other cost associated with the service, repair, or operation of the unit, the deinstallation of any defective part, or the installation of any replacement part.
Electricity or fuel costs, or increases in electricity or fuel costs, for any reason, including additional or unusual use of supplemental electric heat.
Lodging or transportation charges.
Refrigerant.

To receive a replacement part, a licensed contractor must bring the defective part to a Daikin heating and air conditioning products distributor.

Where Can Any Legal Remedies Be Pursued?

Parties
This arbitration clause affects your rights against Daikin Comfort Technologies North America, Inc. and any of its subsidiaries, including but not limited to Daikin Comfort Technologies Manufacturing, L.P., and its or their employees or agents, successors, or assigns, all of whom together are referred to below as “we” or “us” for ease of reference.
ARBITRATION REQUIREMENT
EXCEPT AS STATED BELOW, ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND ANYOF US SHALL BE DECIDED BY NEUTRAL, BINDING ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT OR BY JURY TRIAL. “Dispute” will be given the broadest possible meaning allowable by law. It includes any dispute, claim, or controversy arising from or relating to your purchase of this heating or air conditioning unit, any warranty upon the unit, or the unit’s condition. It also includes determination of the scope or applicability of this Arbitration Clause. The arbitration requirement applies to claims in contract and tort, pursuant to statute, or otherwise.
CLASS-ARBITRATION WAIVER
ARBITRATION IS HANDLED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. IF A DISPUTE IS ARBITRATED, YOU AND WE EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS MEMBER ON ANY CLASS CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE AGAINST US OR WE AGAINST YOU, OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL OR IN ANY OTHER REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. YOU AND WE ALSO WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO CLASS ARBITRATION OR ANY CONSOLIDATION OF INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATIONS.
Discovery and Other Rights
Discovery and rights to appeal in arbitration are generally more limited than in a lawsuit. This applies to both you and us. Other rights that you or we would have in court may not be available in arbitration. Please read this Arbitration Clause and consult the rules of the arbitration organizations listed below for more information.
SMALL CLAIMS COURT OPTION
YOU MAY CHOOSE TO LITIGATE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU ANDANY OF US IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT, RATHER THAN IN ARBITRATION, IF THE DISPUTE MEETS ALL REQUIREMENTS TO BE HEARD IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT.
Governing Law
For residents of the United States, the procedures and effect of the arbitration will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.) rather than by state law concerning arbitration. For residents of Canada, the procedures and effect of the arbitration will be governed by the applicable arbitration law of the province in which you purchased your unit. The law governing your substantive warranty rights and other claims will be the law of the state or province in which you purchased your unit. Any court having jurisdiction may enter judgment on the arbitration award.
Rules of the Arbitration
If the amount in controversy is less than $250,000, the arbitration will be decided by a single arbitrator. If the amount in controversy is greater than or equal to $250,000, the arbitration will be decided by a panel of three arbitrators. The arbitrator(s) will be chosen pursuant to the rules of the administering arbitration organization. United States residents may choose JAMS (1920 Main Street, Ste. 300, Irvine, CA 92614, www.jamsadr.com) or, subject to our approval, any other arbitration organization. In addition, Canadian residents may choose the ADR Institute of Canada (234 Eglinton Ave. East, Suite 405, Toronto, Ontario, M4P 1K5, www.amic.org). These organizations’ rules can be obtained by contacting the organization or visiting its website. If the chosen arbitration organization’s rules conflict with this Arbitration Clause, the provisions of this Arbitration Clause control. The award of the arbitrator(s) shall be final and binding on all parties.
Models: ACNF, ARUF, ASPT, AMST, AVPEC, AVPTC, AWST, AWUF, AWUT, MBVC, AMVT, AMVE, AHVE
Location of the Arbitration Hearing
Unless applicable law provides otherwise, the arbitration hearing for United States residents will be conducted in the federal judicial district in which you reside (in your hometown area) or, for Canadian residents, in the province in which you reside, and if you choose, will be in person.
Costs of the Arbitration:
Each party is responsible for its own attorney, expert, and other costs and fees unless applicable law requires otherwise. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, and unless applicable law requires otherwise, if you are a consumer under the JAMS rules: (a) if you initiate arbitration, Daikin will pay your share of the costs and fees charged by the arbitration organization and arbitrator(s) beyond the first $200; and (b) if Daikin initiates arbitration, Daikin will pay all costs and fees charged by the arbitration organization and arbitrator(s).
Survival and Enforceability of this Arbitration Clause
This Arbitration Clause shall survive the expiration or termination, or any transfer, of the warranty on your unit. If any part of this Arbitration Clause, except waivers of class-action rights, is found to be unenforceable for any reason, the remainder of this clause and the warranty shall remain enforceable. If, in a case in which class-action allegations have been made, the waiver of class-action rights under this warranty is found to be unenforceable with respect to any part of the dispute, the parts of the dispute as to which the waiver of class-action rights have been found unenforceable will be severed and will proceed in court without reference or application of this Arbitration Clause. Any remaining parts will proceed in arbitration.

For residents of the United States, the procedures and effect of the arbitration will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.) rather than by state law concerning arbitration. For residents of Canada, the procedures and effect of the arbitration will be governed by the applicable arbitration law of the province in which you purchased your unit. The law governing your substantive warranty rights and other claims will be the law of the state or province in which you purchased your unit. Any court having jurisdiction may enter judgment on the arbitration award.
Rules of the Arbitration:
If the amount in controversy is less than $250,000, the arbitration will be decided by a single arbitrator. If the amount in controversy is greater than or equal to $250,000, the arbitration will be decided by a panel of three arbitrators. The arbitrator(s) will be chosen pursuant to the rules of the administering arbitration organization. United States residents may choose JAMS (1920 Main Street, Ste. 300, Irvine, CA 92614, www.jamsadr.com) or, subject to our approval, any other arbitration organization.
In addition, Canadian residents may choose the ADR Institute of Canada (234 Eglinton Ave. East, Suite 405, Toronto, Ontario, M4P 1K5, www.amic.org). These organizations’ rules can be obtained by contacting the organization or visiting its website. If the chosen arbitration organization’s rules conflict with this Arbitration Clause, the provisions of this Arbitration Clause control. The award of the arbitrator(s) shall be final and binding on all parties.
Location of the Arbitration Hearing:
Unless applicable law provides otherwise, the arbitration hearing for United States residents will be conducted in the federal judicial district in which you reside (in your hometown area) or, for Canadian residents, in the province in which you reside, and if you choose, will be in person.
Costs of the Arbitration:
Each party is responsible for its own attorney, expert, and other costs and fees unless applicable law requires otherwise. Each party is also responsible for one-half of any costs and fees charged by the arbitration organization and arbitrator(s) to administer the arbitration to the maximum extent permitted by law or rule. Where permissible by law, the prevailing party may be required to reimburse the other party for the costs and fees of the arbitration organization and arbitrator(s) in whole or in part by decision of the arbitrator(s) at the discretion of the arbitrator(s).
Survival and Enforceability of this Arbitration Clause:
This Arbitration Clause shall survive the expiration or termination, or any transfer, of the warranty on your unit. If any part of this Arbitration Clause, except waivers of class-action rights, is found to be unenforceable for any reason, the remainder of this clause and the warranty shall remain enforceable. If, in a case in which class-action allegations have been made, the waiver of class-action rights under this warranty is found to be unenforceable with respect to any part of the dispute, the parts of the dispute as to which the waiver of class-action rights have been found unenforceable will be severed and will proceed in court without reference or application of this Arbitration Clause. Any remaining parts will proceed in arbitration.
