Additional warranty information
Products that we sell come with guarantees offered by the MANUFACTURERS that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and for compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure.

The costs associated with a claim made against these warranties (i.e. postage) are to be borne by you.

These warranties constitute the entire guarantee by the suppliers of Lighting Empire. Except where otherwise provided by the Australian Consumer Law, all other obligations, warranties, both expressed and implied are excluded to the fullest extent allowed by law.

Making a Warranty Claim
Customers can return faulty goods to any Lighting Empire store with their receipt, within the Warranty period for repair, replacement or refund. You must provide proof of purchase and certificate of install by a Licensed Electrician.

Where goods (other than fans) that are faulty have been installed, a warranty claim form needs to be submitted to the relevant supplier of those goods. An in home warranty claim must be done with the relevant supplier provided that an In-home warranty is offered for that product.

Where the product is a fan the claim is to be made via the warranty department of the relevant supplier.

For more information on warranty, call our Lighting Empire warranty line on 07 3341 0008 or contact us.

Should you choose to return goods via shipping you would be responsible for the freight costs, unless the fault is due to Lighting Empire.
