The delivery costs are clearly shown and invoiced at the end of the order in addition to the price of the products. We reserve the right to modify our prices at any moment but this will be indicated to you on the order at the time the order is placed. If an obviously incorrect price appears on our website and is not corrected on your total at the time of order completion, for whatever reason (human error, technical error etc.), your order will be cancelled and the payment refunded to you, even if it has been initially validated.

We will always endeavour to fulfil your order once completed and paid for. If a product should become unavailable after your order has been confirmed and paid for, we will refund the price you paid for the product within 30 days following the date of payment. If your order includes products that are temporarily unavailable, we will send the available products out first and will follow with the outstanding items once they are available again.

If you accept the replacement and then wish to return it to us in the conditions outlined under Right of Return, the return postage will be covered by us. If you choose to decline this offer, and the original product is permanently unavailable, we will reimburse the price of the unavailable product.

Delivery

Your order will be delivered in the metro area within 3 hours subject to stock availability and within a 3-day time frame outside the metro area or when stock is available to the address you indicated when your order was placed. This 3 hour and 3 -day time frames do not apply during the Christmas Holiday, weekends or public holidays as manufacturers are closed and stocks may be limited. The products bought on Hot Water 2Day will be delivered to one address as specified by the customer at the time of purchase. Hot Water 2Day delivers hot water systems to addresses that cover the majority of Australia’s populated area. The covered areas that qualify for free delivery are determined after purchase and for those areas outside of the metro areas after the point of sale. We do offer shipping outside of the specified postcodes that qualify for free delivery. In order to proceed with the order of a postcode outside of the free delivery area, it needs to be phoned through to 1300 513 630 to calculate the additional shipping cost. Hot Water 2Day does everything in its power to respect the delivery times indicated on the website. We cannot, however, be held responsible for the consequences of a late delivery or the loss of a package caused by a third-party contracted to make delivery, or by you, or because of some unforeseen event or an Act of God. In the event where you do not receive your package, an investigation will be conducted with the carrier and may take several days upon receipt of your claim. During this period of investigation, no reimbursement or re-delivery will take place.

Right of Return

Hot Water 2Day allows you 7 days to return a product that you are not satisfied with. Your right of return starts from the moment your order is delivered. You can return the product to us within this time frame, at your own expense, with your invoice and a completed and signed returns coupon. We request that you send us the merchandise by registered post and that you purchase insurance with your carrier for the value of the merchandise. This is necessary should they lose or damage the goods. Shipping fees remain the customer’s responsibility unless specified otherwise. The present right of return only applies to products that are returned in their original, complete condition. Any product that has been damaged, is not in its original packaging, or has packaging that has been worn beyond simply opening the product, will not be refunded. The deadlines mentioned above are effective from the date of receipt of the order. Some products may require a 20% restocking fee. Though we will try to avoid this cost as much as possible it still may apply. The reason for the fee is due to restocking costs from the manufacturers and suppliers.

Reimbursements

If the product is returned within 7 days of its delivery, the User will be reimbursed via the same payment method as was used initially within 7-10 banking days.

Installation

Installation is currently provided in Canberra and in the surrounding areas covered by the “Areas Serviced” section in the Contact Us page of the Hot Water 2Day website. We can provide installation services outside of these areas but are based on the discretion of the office manager as to if there is enough time for it to get done on the day for our service of providing same day service. Installation prices listed on the website are based on certain factors for meeting plumbing standard requirements. Installation prices require easy access to the current hot water system with existing valves being in good working order. We do not take responsibility for existing valves that leak or malfunction for any reason. We will provide a price to replace these valves as required. We reserve the right to not proceed with a hot water system installation. We reserve the right to charge additional costs with any job due to any reason we see fit, especially safety.
