Return and Cancellation Policy

Return Material Authorization

At Sloan®, our goal is to ensure our customers are satisfied with their purchase. Our products are manufactured under the highest quality standards and are all backed by a limited warranty. If a product is found defective prior to or during installation, Sloan may issue a return material authorization (RMA) number and credit in exchange for the defective product.

Should the customer require a part to repair a product, the part should not be taken from another finished good unit. Refer the customer to Sloan Technical Support at 1-888-SLOAN14 (1-888-756-2614) or via email at techsupport@sloan.com. Parts in stock are usually sent out within 24 hours and customers will receive parts within 3 to 7 business days.

For non-inventoried items lead times may vary. Parts that are needed sooner will be handled on a per case basis.

If, after contacting Technical Support, the determination is made that a product cannot be serviced, a return and credit may be requested from the place of purchase. Credits will only be issued to a current Sloan distributor.

Upon receipt of the returned product, Sloan will inspect and test the product prior to issuing credit. Credit may be denied under the following conditions:

1. The product returned does not match the RMA
2. The returned unit is missing components
3. The returned unit has been cannibalized
4. The returned unit is out of the warranty period
5. The product has been damaged via field service or installation
6. The returned unit is not manufactured by Sloan
7. The product is not defective

Defective Product

If a product is defective, the customer must include with  its request for an RMA a specific description of the defect. For example, ‘Doesn’t work’ is not acceptable. ‘Faucet not activating’ would be a more appropriate description.  If no apparent defect is found, the customer may be contacted to clarify the reason for the return.

Do not initiate a debit memo or make any deductions. Wait for a credit memo to be issued. As described above, full credit may be denied in some circumstances.

All Other Return Reasons and General Return Information:

1. If the product is not received by Sloan within 30 days of creating the RMA, the RMA will expire.
2. Credit is usually processed within 15 business days of product receipt

Installation/Field Measurements:

Sloan requires all sinks to be installed by knowledgeable †Corian® or Quartz installers. Installation and/or field measurement is not included in this estimate, and is performed by others. Installation must be performed by qualified personnel and in accordance with installation instructions and generally accepted industry practices. Incorrect or improper installation will void any product warranty. Any standard sinks over 120” will need to be seamed in the field during installation. For custom sinks refer to signed drawings packet to see if seaming will be required. If seaming is required and you’d prefer to purchase the seaming material/epoxy from Sloan ask your Sloan representative about ordering details.

Materials:

Sloan products using solid surface (SloanStone® and Corian®) and quartz slabs may vary in color by slab/lot, because of this there may be a slight variation between orders. Variation can also occur in grain, veins and surface finish both between lots/slabs and even within the same lot/slab. While Sloan takes the utmost caution to match and orient these products in such a way that these imperfections add to the aesthetic value of the product, Sloan will not be held responsible for this variation. For any warranty issues Sloan reserves the right to repair solid surface sinks.

Signed Document Submittal:

Sloan requires a signed architectural worksheet or signed drawing (if applicable) to place an order. Any order placed without submission of these documents will be subject to an order hold that will extend any previously agreed upon lead time commitments. Once the documents are received the order will be reinstated and an updated ship date will be provided.
