So as I look around for a new SWG to replace my Monarch Ecomatic-24 I am confused about one thing - warranties.
How often to SWGs fail in a manner that utilizes the warranty?
to make matters worse... you have differences with units such as the Pentair Intellichlor that it is 1yr no matter where you buy it and you can get a 3yr if you have a Pentair dealer install it... albeit for $200 more. Are such deals worth the extra money?
Are there certain units that you would feel safe with a 1yr and others that you wouldn't feel safe unless you had a 3yr? Or what about installing it yourself vs having someone else install it just to get more warranty?
What is the general consensus around here? Thanks for your time.
