Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas and the Florida panhandle including the city of Fort Walton Beach. A
statement from them is included concerning the service and training capability ofC. C. Lynch & Associates as it

In section 10 of the specification concerning warranty require that we clarify our warranty and I will address
each section.

warranty covering parts and labor that provides for repair or replacement due to faulty parts or workmanship at
no charge to the customer. Our warranty document is attached with this bid.
10. 2 The flow monitor and all associated accessories, except flow sensors, shall have a 12 month warranty
covering parts and labor. Our warranty only covers shipping costs being provided should a failure occur in the
first 30 days after shipment. Warranty coverage begins on date of shipment from our factory not date of
installation. We may elect to extend date when warranty begins upon receipt of written request to delay
warranty when equipment installation is expected to be delayed for a period not to exceed 6 months.
10.3 A 24 month warranty for the Velocity sensor is provided in our bid. We take exception to the portion of
this section concerning shipping cost being covered for 24 months from date of purchase. Our standard warranty
concerning shipping cost is included.
10. 4 Our flow meters and sensors are manufactured of products that are not normally damaged when in
contact with Hydrogen Sulfide therefore we would determine if repair or replacement was warranted during the
normal warranty period due to faulty parts or workmanship. Damage due to lack of proper maintenance or not
following recommendations as found in the instruction manual do not constitute warranty repair or replacement.
We look forward to working with Fort Walton Beach and will be happy to provide additional information as
needed.
