Article 12 - (Energy) SOLAR ENERGY PRODUCTS WARRANTY ACT
12-102 - Purpose.

 12-102. Purpose.  The legislature hereby finds and declares that the
  use  of  renewable energy technologies, such as solar energy, within the
  state  should  be  encouraged  to  the  maximum  extent  possible;  that
  effective,  well-designed,  carefully manufactured and properly serviced
  solar thermal systems are essential for  the  development  of  a  viable
  solar  industry;  that  false claims, fraudulent sales practices, shoddy
  workmanship, equipment failures and poor  servicing  of  products  would
  inhibit  the  growth  of  the  solar  industry;  that  adequate warranty
  protections should be made available to consumers in  order  to  prevent
  such  deceptions;  that  certain warranty protections are presently made
  available to consumers of products normally used for personal, family or
  household purposes pursuant to the Federal Magnuson-Moss  Warranty  Act;
  and  that warranty protections should be made available to purchasers of
  all solar energy products in this state, regardless of use.
