7. Pump Returns

If a pump is returned due to an electrical fault resulting from a power surge during Eskom outages, RotoTank™ will not be held responsible. RotoTank™ recommends the installation of power surge protection to prevent such situations.

In the event of a faulty pump, we will send the unit to the manufacturer for assessment and follow their recommendations. RotoTank™ is not responsible for covering the costs of pickup, courier services, or reinstallation of the unit.

Before contacting RotoTank™ , it is advisable to have your installer check for any leaks, blockages, or electrical faults. 

Delivery times may vary, especially in areas experiencing water crises. We will make every effort to deliver our products as promptly as possible. However, delivery times may be extended to up to 10 working days in such situations. We will keep you informed through our communication systems.
