Where the Customer has a concern about the longevity of the product because of the prevailing climate or otherwise, measures should be taken to improve the lifespan of the grid including washing down the panels with fresh water to remove salt deposits. In all enviroments, the panel may rust, and instructions in Vistafolia’s maintenance manual should be followed at all times.

4.8 If the Customer rejects any delivery of the Products which do not comply with the Warranty, Vistafolia shall, within fourteen days of Vistafolia accepting that the Products do not comply with the Warranty:(a) supply replacement Products which comply with the Warranty, in which event Vistafolia shall be deemed not to be in breach of the Contract or have any liability to the Customer for the rejected Products; or(b) notify the Customer that it is unable to supply replacement Products, in which case the Customer shall be entitled to obtain a full refund of any sums paid to Vistafolia..
