REFUND POLICY.
1.General Policy
At Entric Power Systems Ltd ("Entric," "we," "us," or "our"), we are committed to delivering high-quality, VeraSol-certified solar products and reliable installation services. Because our products are durable goods intended for long-term use and our PAYG financing involves extended payment terms, our refund policy is structured to be fair to both our customers and our business.
2. Outright Purchases
For customers who purchase a solar product through a one-time outright payment:
-
You may request a return and refund within 7 (seven) calendar days of the date of delivery or installation.
-
The product must be in original condition, unused, and in its original packaging with all accessories included.
-
A restocking fee of 15% of the purchase price will be deducted from the refund to cover logistics, handling, and administrative costs.
-
Refunds will be processed within 14 (fourteen) business days of receiving and inspecting the returned product.
-
Return shipping costs are the responsibility of the customer unless the return is due to a product defect or Entric error.
3. PAYG (Pay-As-You-Go) Customers
For customers purchasing through our PAYG financing model:
-
Initial deposit payments are non-refundable once the system has been installed or delivered.
-
Monthly installment payments made toward your outstanding balance are also non-refundable, as they represent progress toward full ownership of the product.
-
If you cancel your PAYG agreement before completing all payments, you will not receive a refund for any payments already made. The product remains the property of Entric until the Total Payment is completed.
4. Product Defects and Warranty Claims
If your product is found to be defective within the warranty period (as defined in our Terms of Service):
-
You are entitled to a repair or replacement at no additional cost, rather than a cash refund.

5. Exceptions
Refunds will not be issued for:
-
Products damaged due to misuse, neglect, improper installation, or unauthorized tampering.
