Other important warranties:  A. Inverter has a 30 month warranty with no hour limitations like that found on generators.  B. Powered roof vent/sky light has 2 yr manufacturer's warranty.  C. Non-powered roof vent/sky light has a life time manufacturer's warranty.  D. All other equipment items are covered under a 1 year warranty.

Their Equipment Warranty*

Most are covered for 1 year but all equipment warranties pass through to the manufacturer of the item. This means you  deal with each manufacturer for warranty issues.

Important to note: Onan Diesel generators have a limitation of 2000 hours usage and warranty expires which most groomers can use up in less than 16 months if operated 6 hours per day five work days per week. The cost of a replacement diesel generator is between $9000-10,000 before labor.  Diesel service and repairs are significantly higher than comparable repairs on gas generators and service may be limited at some dealerships.

Hanvey Warranty Supplement


 

It's Time to Celebrate Success
with another Hanvey first, the Hanvey Supplement Warranty

To celebrate over 6 years of not having failures on the Emission Particulate Filter or the Catalyst,  Hanvey has decided to introduce an industry first, a vehicle warranty supplement. A $1,500 value and we are giving it to our clients at no charge for new 2008 model Hanvey Sprinter HGV's


We are so confident in our 6 years of Sprinter experience and zero emissions control particulate filter failures that we have decided to supplement the factory emissions warranty by 5000 hours above what Sprinter offers with the emissions control system. The extension is not being made by Sprinter. After the 3000 factory hours, Hanvey picks up the warranty for an extended 5000 hours.  We can make this extension with confidence based on our six year history of ZERO emissions particulate filter and catalyst failures.   So do not let scare tactics of other companies and their lack of confidence and experience in Sprinter van conversions scare you into buying a system that only has a 2000 hour limitation on a $10,000 generator and a much higher replacement and repair cost.  We suspect that no one will supplement the mere 2000 hour or approx. 16 months of warranty offered by Onan on their generators but it can't hurt to ask the other guys if they will supplement the warranties.
 

Their warranty extensions:
None*

Our observations lead us to believe that five to ten cold starts followed by drives of less than 10 minutes on a regular, daily basis may cause particulate build-up in the Sprinter's particulate filter which can result in damage to the emission control system when the van is rarely driven more than 15 minutes on good grooming routes.  If the competition is so certain their choice of engine operation is so correct, why will they not extend the vans emission control warranty to protect you from this type of possible failure.  We are putting our money where our mouth is. Will anyone else do so or will they just cower, just just whine about things they have no experience or history in dealing with.

See previous warranty note for details on the high cost and mere 2000 hour usage limitation that comes with the $9-10,000 Onan diesel generator.
