Warranty Information
Nearly all products sold by Active Pool Supply carry a manufacturer warranty. If you feel you have a defective product, please refer to the warranty information packaged with your product.
Active Pool Supply does not express or imply any warranties. All warranties are the responsibility of the manufacturer. Active Pool Supply expressly disclaims liability for any injury, loss, damage, or cost (including labor) of any kind arising from the use or inability to use any item we sell.
These criteria apply to warranties for most manufacturers and most products:
- Most manufacturer warranties clearly express that warranty applies to defects in material and/or workmanship only, and cover only the replacement of defective or missing parts. Any damage that occurs to a product after it has shipped from the factory is not the manufacturer’s responsibility and is not covered under warranty unless caused by defects in material or workmanship.
- Labor is not included in most warranties, nor do manufacturers accept responsibility for loss of time, inconvenience, incidental expenses or material charges.
- Any shipping charges incurred in the execution of a warranty claim are the responsibility of the owner.
- Warranties typically extend to the original retail owner only and are not transferable.
- Warranty period begins on date of purchase or installation, if it can be proven with an invoice or proof of purchase.
- For products that were shipped internationally, warranties are usually only valid if the manufacturer has a presence in the country where the products were shipped.
Shipping Policy
We make every effort to ship all orders within 24-48 hours of receipt (except for Saturdays, Sundays and holidays), however this is not always possible due to merchandise availability and other unforeseen events. Active Pool Supply does not guarantee transit times on ground packages or standard freight. From time to time there will be promotional items with free shipping or a flat rate shipping charge. Free shipping or flat rate shipping fee applies to the continental United States ONLY.
Freight Shipments
Items shipped within the USA that are too large or too heavy for
UPS must be delivered via freight
truck. All freight deliveries are scheduled for residential curbside delivery
and someone must be there to inspect and receive the delivery. Freight shipments require inspection and signature upon delivery. Any damaged shipments must be refused.
Products Damaged in Transit
While it's unfortunate, products are damaged by the delivery carrier
from time to time. You must inspect the item(s) by opening the pallet and boxes to check for concealed freight damage.
It is highly recommended that you remove
the wrapping and/or box and inspect the product for hidden damage as
well. Please clearly notate on the carrier’s paperwork
that the item was damaged when it arrived, refuse the shipment and
supply us with a copy of that paperwork. If the carrier will not let you
remove the box, then please
clearly write on the freight bill "Subject to Inspection for Damage".
Please contact us so we can get you a replacement or find a solution
for the damage to be repaired.
Visit our
Shipping Policy page for more information on what to do when an item is damaged in transit.
At
Active Pool Supply we prefer to ship as many orders as we can from
our warehouse located in Ontario, California. This is not always
possible, so we sometimes rely on drop-shipments from different
suppliers to get your order shipped as soon as possible. We know that
by shipping ourselves it's more likely that our customers will get the
right product, shipped in the right condition the first time, and
therefore this is our preference. Below you will find a UPS Ground time
in transit map for orders shipping from our warehouse. Orders shipped
directly from a manufacturer are not subject to our control and shipping times
vary.
Many of
our orders ship on a freight truck, items like large pool filters, pool
heaters, heat pumps, slides, diving boards, etc. Those shipments take
about the same amount of time to reach the destination terminal (that
carriers terminal closest to your location) but can take 1-3 additional
days to go out for delivery.
Return Policy
Order must be less than 90 days old in order to be returnable. Return window starts at the date of receipt of order. Items must be in new and saleable condition, in the original
undamaged packaging, to qualify for a return. Any product that has been
installed and/or used cannot be returned.
Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) must be requested within this 90-day period. Once an RMA has been issued it is valid for 30 days. Customer is responsible for paying return shipping costs.

Cancellations are only allowed if the product has not been shipped or

Will-Call Orders
Will call orders can be placed online with Active Pool Supply to save on shipping costs, but only for eligible products in stock in our warehouse. We are located in Ontario, California. All will-call orders must be placed online or over the phone and an email will be sent after the order is processed to inform you of the time your order will be ready for pick up. Items not stocked in our warehouse may still be eligible for will call if the item is stocked at a local supplier. But, if the local supplier has a higher cost than our main supplier, then the difference in cost must be added to the selling price you see on the site.

order which is picked up by the purchaser and/or agent of the purchaser;
shall receive the product as being received in new condition and any
possible
transit damage is the responsibility of the purchaser.
Special Orders
Typically,
special orders take two to three weeks for delivery. Every item / order is

order items may be returned to the manufacture but restocking fees and shipping
charges will be incurred.
