All of our employees are empowered to break any company policy in order to make you happy.

Ballast Replacement Warranty

Should you have a problem with any Sunlight Supply Sun System I, Swtichable or Super Spectrum System, or any P.L. Lighting System, will send out a comparable ballast of the same wattage via UPS 3 Day Air during the first year. We will include a pre-paid UPS label for return of the broken ballast at no cost to you. If you need faster service, you may pay the difference to upgrade to UPS Second Day or Overnight. No other company gets you back up and running faster! This is just one of the many benefits of ordering from DH! BEFORE YOU ORDER FROM SOMEONE ELSE, ask them what their replacement policy is! They will most likely require you to ship your ballast back to them to have it fixed. In the meantime, your plants are IN THE DARK - FOR WEEKS!!!

Shipping Information

We charge only what we are charged for shipping.

We ship VIA U.P.S. or United States Postal Service Priority Mail. If you live in Alaska or Hawaii, we will ship via Priority Mail if you request it to avoid U.P.S. air charges.

Many large, light items (rockwool, etc.) when shipped via U.P.S. Air Services (Three Day, Second Day and Overnight) are charged by 'Dimensional Weight'. Do to this, we reserve the right to amend the shopping cart calculated shipping charges to actual charges. We will notify you if this situation occurs. It does not affect U.P.S. Ground Charges.
