Care and Longevity Information
Are my wind chimes covered by a warranty?
Depending on the product line, our limited warranty policy gives you up to five years of hassle-free coverage. For full details, see our Warranty Policy.
Why is my Wind River wind chime not as loud as I had hoped?
Please ensure your chime is hung in a breezy location and not blocked by any structure, tree, or other hindrance. Avoid hanging the chime from a rope or chain. A long hook will reduce the chime's movement. It is best to hang it directly from the O-Ring at the top. If changing locations doesn't improve the sound, consider using a larger wind sail, which you can find on our website.
Does living near the ocean and salty air impact Wind River chimes over time?
Salt air does not impact the sound or quality of your wind chimes, but long-term exposure to the air may affect the paint and strings over time.
What should I do with my Wind River chimes during the winter months?
While our wind chimes are durable and can withstand winter conditions, many customers prefer to bring their chimes indoors for safe keeping during the colder months. If you are unable to bring your chimes indoors but would still like to shield them from the winter elements, we recommend securing a trap over and around your chimes.
