| Warranty terms | Jandy Limited Warranty: variable-speed pumps 3 years from retail purchase on a single-family pool, installed and serviced by a licensed or experienced pool professional; parts only, no labor. The warranty does not apply to pumps bought online or through other e-commerce platforms, so an online/DIY buyer gets no Jandy warranty. | Speck limited warranty: 2 years from purchase (no more than 3 years from factory shipment), repair, replace or refund, no labor; it is conditional on installation by a qualified pool professional and a licensed electrician, so a DIY install voids it. |
