Start a Return or Cancel an Order

To request a return for a delivered order or cancel an order that has not yet been fulfilled, please use our online self-service portal.

European Union Consumers

Eligible consumers in the European Union have a statutory right to withdraw from an online purchase without providing a reason before delivery and within 14 days after delivery of the last item in the order.

To exercise this right, start a return or cancel an order through our online self-service portal.

This statutory 14-day right is separate from any longer return period that WaterAnywhere may offer under this Return and Refund Policy.

Certain products and transactions may be exempt from the statutory right of withdrawal. Nothing in this policy limits any mandatory consumer rights that apply to you.

2. Eligibility for Returns

• Timeframe: Request a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) within 30 days of delivery.
• Condition: Items must be unused, uninstalled, in original packaging, with all accessories, manuals, and proof of purchase.
