5. Acceptance of one of our service plans does not imply that the boiler, heating system or plumbing system is installed to the relevant standards, and we will not accept liabilities arising from the original design or installation and so make no warranty as to the fitness for purpose.

6. We will not be liable for any delays in the supply of parts from our suppliers. We may fit replacement parts that are adequate but not the same as the defective part(s).
