PARTS REPLACEMENT & REPAIRS

After determining whether there are manufacturer faults or damages to the product, Lifespan Fitness will determine, in its discretion, the reasonable call to action method to remedy the issues. For most issues, parts can be easily changed over, and for these issues, Lifespan Fitness will send through the relevant part to fit on. In the unlikely event of a major fault, and we will request the item back for repairs or replacement, which is at Lifespan Fitness' discretion at the time of assessment.
