Warranties

Tara Manufacturing, Inc. warrants that this liner will not leak due to a seam separation under normal wear, exposure and usage for a period of twenty (20) years from date of purchase.

Tara Manufacturing, Inc. has no control of the installation or maintenance of the pool once the liner has been installed. It is up to the installer to make sure the liner is being installed in a pool identical to the dimensions given to Tara manufacturing, Inc. for construction of the liner, and that the liner is being dropped in a suitable shell, free of rough spots under the liner, rust gravel, or any type of abrasive surfaces to which the liner will come in contact. The most suitable type of surface to put under the liner is a very fine grade of pure sand or vermiculite.

If for some reason the liner does not appear to properly fit the pool, the installer should contact Tara Manufacturing, Inc. immediately before attempting to fill the pool with water.

Once the liner has been installed the water should be balanced to the recommended levels immediately! A guide for the correct water balance is outlined on the back of the warranty card. It is up to the homeowner to insure that the water is properly balanced at all times. Our warranty does not cover damage to the liner caused by an improper water balance, which can and will cause severe damage to the liner.

Although it is not a very frequent occurrence, it has been known for some time that ants, termites, and various other insects will sometimes eat holes in a vinyl liner. It might be wise to have an exterminator treat the ground in the area where a new pool is being constructed, or treat the ground in the pool area prior to installing the new liner in the pool.

A liner failure must be reported in writing directly to Tara Manufacturing, Inc. within thirty (30) days of the failure. An employee of Tara Manufacturing, Inc., who will tell you how the situation is to be handled and the steps to follow, will then contact you.

Tara Manufacturing, Inc. reserves the right to repair or replace, at the option of Tara Manufacturing, Inc., any liner appearing to fail or improperly fit the pool. Tara Manufacturing, Inc. also reserves the right to authorize or elect a qualified pool repairman to make the necessary repairs in order for the liner to perform its basic functions.

It is unwise to allow a pool to stand empty. If you experience an alleged defect in your liner, try to photograph or videotape the area in question prior to patching the liner. Quite often this will allow Tara Manufacturing, Inc. to make a determination of warranty prior to having the liner replaced.

This liner has a twenty year limited pro-ration period. If Tara Manufacturing, Inc. confirms a defect in the liner of your claim during the first year, Tara Manufacturing, Inc. will either repair at no charge, or replace the liner on a product replacement basis. After the first year has expired, a charge will be made equal to the following schedule based on suggested retail price at the time of replacement: 2nd year 20%; 3rd year 30%; 4th year 40%; 5th year 50%; 6th year 60%; 7th year 70%; 8th year - 20th year 80%.

Tara Manufacturing, Inc. does not pay water or labor allowance on pro-rated warranties.

Any questions regarding the terms and conditions of this warranty may be directed to the Customer Service Department at Tara Manufacturing, Inc. by writing or calling to the address and phone number listed below.

Tara Manufacturing, Inc. strives to buy premium grade vinyl. However, since this vinyl is not manufactured or produced by Tara Manufacturing, Inc., any failure due to material defects including, but not limited to fading, discoloration, staining or changes in physical characteristics are not covered under Tara Manufacturing, Inc.'s limited warranty. Any such material defects shall be referred to the manufacturer of such material who is solely responsible to the claim.

Tara Manufacturing, Inc.'s liner warranty does not apply to tears, punctures, damage caused by undue abuse, excessive strain, improper installation procedures, improper chemical balance, or acts of God such as ice damage or failure caused by exceptional temperature extremes. Decorative color trim printings used on the liner are excluded from our warranty coverage. If the liner fits poorly, or fails during installation, continued use of the liner without written consent by Tara Manufacturing, Inc. voids this warranty. We disclaim any other person. In addition, Tara Manufacturing, Inc. will not assume any liability if the pool installation violates local building codes.

This warranty gives you specific rights and you may also have other rights, which may vary from State to State. The attached warranty registration must be filled in and mailed to Tara Manufacturing, Inc. within thirty (30) days of purchase; otherwise Tara Manufacturing, Inc.'s limited warranty will be invalid. Proof of purchase must be presented with any claim.  Quality
