Is my repair taxable?
Your repair is taxable only if

How do warranties work for "spare parts"?
We understand that sometimes a repair is completed to a unit that is a "spare part." While we encourage customers to test their spare units upon return, we know this is not always possible. In this case, we ask that a customer notify us in writing or by phone, to let us know what date the repaired part was put into service, referring to the unit's specific serial number, and confirming that the unit is stored in a temperature and humidity controlled environment. In the case that we are notified and those specific requirements have been met, Control System Labs agrees to extend the warranty on that unit an additional nine months (maximum) from the date the unit was put into service.
