We constantly strive to improve on Environmentally Friendly Design. Together with the Customer's Right to Maintenance, & Right to Repair this results in reduced maintenance costs and an extended Consumer Guarantee. A manufacturer and a customer working together to take care of a product is a dream team.

AVA of Norway is a member of Right to Repair Europe and works continuously to improve the environmentally friendly properties and extend the life-cycle of all AVA products. For us, Environmentally Friendly Design, the Right to Maintenance & Repair, long product life, repairability, reuse, and circular economy are more than just words. They are part of the product philosophy that we strive for every day.

With Environmentally Friendly Design and the Customer's Right to Maintenance, Ava of Norway grants you as a customer an extended Consumer Guarantee of up to 20 years without costly service agreements. This means that the product is designed to be repairable and that you as a consumer can choose to maintain and repair the machine yourself and thus benefit from our Consumer Guarantee. Taking care of an AVA product should be easy, and we believe that you as a customer should be rewarded for the effort you put into maintenance.

To facilitate the fact that you, or a handyperson/repairer, can perform necessary maintenance safely and easily without unnecessary cost, we have created simple videos that you can find on our website. Everything is thus set for your AVA products to last as long as possible.

AVA of Norway is confident that our customers will appreciate trouble-free maintenance that results in less waste. Together, we contribute to reduced costs and a more sustainable development. By exercising your right to maintain your own product, we can offer an extended consumer guarantee.
