(a) The Product was destroyed as a result of its defect or any defect in any part covered in this warranty; and
(b) Metal-Fab Inc. is reasonably satisfied that the Product was defective at the time of sale.

The owner acknowledges that no oral statements purporting to be warranties, representations, or guarantees of any kind about any product of Metal-Fab Inc. have been made to owner by Metal-Fab Inc., by the original purchaser if different from the owner, or by its dealer which in any way expands, alters or modifies the terms of the warranty set out herein. Any such statements do not constitute warranties, shall not be relied on by the owner, and are not part of the contract of sale. This writing constitutes a complete and exclusive statement of the terms of any warranty, express or implied, of Metal-Fab Inc.
There is NO WARRANTY for any defective Product of Metal-Fab Inc. which has been removed from its original installation site or which, in the judgment of Metal-Fab Inc., arises from misuse, mishandling, neglect, flood, lightning, corrosive atmosphere, improper installation of the Product, improper servicing of the Product, unauthorized modification of the Product, improper fuel supply to the Product, or the failure of the installer to properly install or service the Product as is set out in the installation instructions.
