Repair and Warranty
Our staff of
experienced service technicians can provide fast factory repair service, using
exclusively authorized components and modules. The repair price includes the
cost of calibrating the unit to restore it to its original factory
specifications. Each repair is backed by a 90-day warranty. We can provide
repair service on many obsolete models, depending on availability of parts.
Extended Warranty
Increase your return on investment (ROI). Complex
electronic products do occasionally fail. Minimize the impact to your expense
budgets by purchasing additional warranty coverage. Extended warranties provide
additional years of protection at a fraction of the cost of a repair.
Advantages include:
Price
You will typically realize hundreds of dollars of savings over
“per-incident” repair prices.
Peace of mind
You will eliminate unbudgeted repair expenses by purchasing additional
product coverage.
