All OEM replacement parts are covered under warranty for one year if installed by a licensed professional. Items installed by homeowners or other non-licensed professionals are not covered under any warranty.
In order to file a warranty claim for a potentially defective product, a case must be opened with the manufacturer's Technical Support team and they will troubleshoot with a licensed technician while in the field to determine if it is defective. In order for us to proceed, a valid claim number must be provided to us.
At our sole discretion, defective items may be exchanged for the same model or manufacturer's equivalent model.
Special Order Items
Special Order items are those which do not have prices listed on our website and that you received a special quote on. Not all Special Order items are eligible for return.

Credits and Refunds
Credits and Refunds on returned items will be issued in the same payment method used at the time of purchase. This generally occurs within 5 to 7 business days after the returned item(s) are processed and approved.
After we issue a refund to your credit card, it can take 7-10 days for it to appear back on your account. We do not control this timeframe and cannot make it go through faster.
At RuudParts.net's discretion, credit for partial returns may be less than invoice or individual component prices due to bundled or promotional pricing and any unadvertised discounts or concessions.
Credits are issued for material costs only. Shipping and handling charges will not be credited unless the part is deemed defective.
Certain products, such as all Gas and Electric tankless water heaters and space heaters are sent back to the manufacturer for testing. Thus, these products may require an extra 2 weeks before we will issue a credit.
