FIELDPIECE FEEL THE RUSH SWEEPSTAKES

OFFICIAL RULES 

THIS SWEEPSTAKES IS A TRADE PROMOTION FOR HVACR PROFESSIONALS. NO PURCHASE NECESSARY TO ENTER OR WIN. A PURCHASE WILL NOT INCREASE YOUR CHANCES OF WINNING. VOID WHERE PROHIBITED. OPEN ONLY TO LEGAL RESIDENTS OF THE FIFTY (50) UNITED STATES AND THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA WHO ARE 21 YEARS OF AGE OR OLDER AND PARTICIPATE IN THEIR CAPACITY AS WORKING HVACR TECHNICIANS. 

By entering, you agree to these Official Rules. These Official Rules are a contract and include a limitation of your rights and remedies, a requirement that disputes be resolved through binding individual arbitration, and a waiver of class actions and class arbitration.

  1. Sponsor. The Fieldpiece FEEL THE RUSH Promotion Sweepstakes (the “Sweepstakes”) is sponsored by Fieldpiece Instruments, Inc., 1636 West Collins Avenue, Orange, California 92867 (“Sponsor”).
  2. Trade Promotion. The Sweepstakes is a trade promotion directed to professionals in the heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration (“HVACR”) trade who participate in their professional capacity. It is not directed to consumers. The Qualifying Products (defined in Section 5) are professional diagnostic and service tools designed and marketed for commercial HVACR use and are sold through HVACR trade channels. By entering, you represent that you are entering in your capacity as a working HVACR professional, and not as an individual consumer for personal, family, or household purposes.
  3. Eligibility. The Sweepstakes is open only to individuals who, at the time of entry: (a) are legal residents of the fifty (50) United States or the District of Columbia; (b) are at least twenty-one (21) years of age; and (c) employ or work as an HVACR technician or professional, enter in that professional capacity, and confirm that status as part of the entry process (“Entrant”). The Sweepstakes is not open to employees, officers, directors, or contractors of Sponsor or its parents, subsidiaries, or affiliates; Sponsor’s authorized distributors and their employees or contractors; Sponsor’s sales representatives and other representatives; Sponsor’s advertising, promotion, and fulfillment agencies; the Prize suppliers; or the immediate family members (spouses, parents, siblings, or children) or household members of any of those persons (together, “Excluded Persons”). A Prize winner must be able to travel by commercial air within the United States and must hold valid government-issued photo identification acceptable for domestic air travel. Entrants are solely responsible for determining whether their employer’s policies, or any government, ethics or similar rules applicable to them and/or permit them to enter the Sweepstakes or accept a Prize. Sponsor may disqualify any Entrant who is ineligible or whose participation Sponsor determines would violate those rules.
  4. Entry Period. The Sweepstakes begins at 12:00:00 a.m. Pacific Time (“PT”) on November 1, 2026 and ends at 11:59:59 p.m. PT on December 31, 2026 (the “Entry Period”). Sponsor’s systems are the official timekeeping devices for the Sweepstakes. Entries submitted outside the Entry Period are not eligible, except as stated in Section 5(B).
  5. How to Enter. There are two (2) ways to enter the Sweepstakes (each completed submission, an “Entry”). Both methods give the same chance of winning.

(A) Entry with Product Purchase and Registration. During the Entry Period: (i) purchase, for use in your, your business’ or your contractors’ professional capacity, of at least one of the following Fieldpiece products from an authorized Fieldpiece distributor or other authorized seller: VP67, VP87, VPX7, VP833, SM382V, SM482V, or MR45 (each, a “Qualifying Product”); (ii) create an individual account on Sponsor’s Support Portal at https://support.fieldpiece.com, or log in to your existing individual account; (iii) register the Qualifying Product through Sponsor’s Tool Registration process by providing the product name and SKU, serial number or batch code, distributor, purchase location, purchase date, and a legible proof of purchase (such as a receipt or invoice showing the product, the seller, and the purchase date); (iv) confirm that you work as an HVACR technician or professional and are entering in that capacity; and (v) check the box to enter the Sweepstakes and submit the registration. Each Qualifying Product may be registered for one (1) Entry only. A purchase made by your employer for your use qualifies if the proof of purchase shows the Qualifying Product and the purchase date.

(B) Entry Without Purchase. During the Entry Period, send a 3×5 postcard to Fieldpiece National Promotion Sweepstakes, 1636 West Collins Ave., Orange, CA 92867, which includes your first and last name, mailing address, email address, and telephone number, and states that you employ or work as an HVACR technician and are entering in that capacity. Your postcard must be postmarked by the end of the Entry Period, and Sponsor must receive your mail within seven (7) days of the end of the Entry Period. Each postcard earns one (1) Entry. Requests must be sent individually by the Entrant. No purchase or Qualifying Product is required.

Entry limit. Each person may submit no more than ten (10) Entries in total across both methods for the entire Sweepstakes. Entrants may not use multiple accounts, email addresses, or identities, and may not share an email address or Support Portal account with any other person. Entries submitted through a macro, bot, script, or other automated means, including via a large language model or other artificial intelligence tool, or through a commercial entry service or on behalf of another person or entity are void.

Proof of purchase. If Sponsor determines or believes, in its sole discretion, that a proof of purchase is invalid, altered, or incomplete, has been submitted as proof for multiple entries, or that a registered Qualifying Product was returned for a refund, Sponsor may disqualify the related Entry and any other Entries submitted by that Entrant. Sponsor may request additional documentation to verify any Entry.

Identity disputes. If a dispute arises over the identity of an Entrant, Sponsor will deem the Entry made by the authorized account holder of the email address or Support Portal account used to enter. The authorized account holder is the natural person assigned to that email address by an internet access provider, software, online service provider, or other organization responsible for assigning email addresses. Sponsor may require proof that you are the authorized account holder.

  1. Drawing; Odds. On or about January 7, 2027, Sponsor will select one (1) potential winner in a random drawing from all eligible Entries received, using a random number generator. Every eligible Entry, regardless of entry method, has an equal chance of selection. The odds of winning depend on the number of eligible Entries received.
  2. Winner Notification and Verification. Sponsor will attempt to notify the potential winner by email and telephone, using the contact information the Entrant provided, within three (3) business days after the drawing. The potential winner must respond within seventy-two (72) hours after the first notification attempt. The potential winner must then return, within five (5) calendar days after Sponsor’s request, a completed affidavit of eligibility, a liability and publicity release (except where a publicity release is prohibited by law), IRS Form W-9, and any other documents Sponsor reasonably requires, including proof of HVACR technician or professional status if requested and, if the Prize includes travel, the travel documents and releases described in Sections 3 and 9. If a potential winner does not respond or return the documents on time, cannot be reached, is found ineligible, or does not comply with these Official Rules, the potential winner forfeits the Prize and Sponsor may select an alternate potential winner from the remaining eligible Entries, subject to the same requirements. Sponsor is not required to select more than three (3) alternates, and the Prize may go unawarded. An Entrant is not a winner unless and until Sponsor verifies the Entrant’s eligibility and Entry and notifies the Entrant that verification is complete. Sponsor is not responsible for any notification that is lost, intercepted, filtered, or not received for any reason.
  3. Prize. One (1) Grand Prize is available to be awarded. The Grand Prize consists of a trip for two (2) people (the Winner and one (1) Guest) to a premier stock car racing event. The prize package includes:
  • Round-trip coach airfare for two (2) people;
  • Four (4) days / three (3) nights of hotel accommodation;
  • Two (2) tickets to a premier stock car racing event. The Winner will select among available stock car races presented by the Sponsor; and
  • One thousand ($1,000) United States dollars (“USD”) in spending money (meals, incidentals, ground transport, etc.) awarded as a check made payable to the Winner.

Approximate Retail Value (“ARV”) of Grand Prize: eight thousand seven hundred and fifty ($8,750) USD.

Sponsor will determine all Prize details not stated here. Any difference between the ARV and the actual value of the Prize will not be awarded. The Prize may not be assigned, transferred, resold, or exchanged for cash, except that Sponsor may substitute a prize of equal or greater value if the Prize or any part of it is unavailable for any reason. The Prize is subject to any terms and conditions of the Prize provider. The winner is solely responsible for all federal, state, and local taxes on the Prize and for all costs not expressly included in the Prize description. Sponsor will report the Prize to the IRS as required by law and will not gross up or reimburse any taxes. Entrant is solely responsible for any taxes affiliated with the Prize.

  1. Travel Prize Terms.

(a) Scheduling. Sponsor will determine the travel dates, itinerary, and departure airport. The winner must be available to travel on those dates. Sponsor may, in its sole discretion, consider requests to change dates, but it is not required to do so. Any change the winner requests after booking, and any resulting fees or fare differences, is the winner’s responsibility. Travel must be completed by December 31, 2027, and any travel not completed by that date is forfeited without compensation. If winner is unable to travel, Sponsor reserves the right, but has no obligation, to substitute an alternative prize or to pick another winner.

(b) Airfare. The Prize includes round-trip economy/coach airfare for the winner and one (1) guest from a Sponsor-designated airport to destination, on the carrier and flights Sponsor selects. Upgrades, seat selection, checked baggage fees, and other airline charges are the winner’s responsibility. Names on airline tickets must exactly match the traveler’s government-issued photo identification. Frequent flyer miles, if any, are earned by the traveler and are not provided by Sponsor.

(c) Lodging. The Prize includes four (4) days/three (3) nights of lodging in one (1) room, double occupancy, at a standard hotel Sponsor selects. Taxes and resort fees are not included. Incidental charges, including room service, minibar, telephone, parking, and damage, are the winner’s responsibility. If the hotel is unavailable, Sponsor may substitute a hotel of comparable category.

(d) Ground transportation and other expenses. Ground transportation is not included. Meals, gratuities, souvenirs, and all other expenses not expressly included in the Prize description are the winner’s responsibility.

(e) Guest. The guest must be at least twenty-one (21) years of age, or as the event or ticket terms require, must be able to travel by commercial air within the United States and must hold valid government-issued photo identification acceptable for domestic air travel, must travel with the winner on the same itinerary, and must sign Sponsor’s release before travel. If the guest cannot travel, the winner may not substitute another guest without Sponsor’s written approval. The winner is responsible for the guest’s conduct.

(f) Travel documents and conduct. The winner and guest are responsible for carrying valid identification and any other documents required for travel, and for complying with all laws, regulations, airline, hotel, venue, and event rules. Sponsor may withdraw the Prize from any person whose conduct Sponsor considers disruptive, unsafe, or unlawful, without compensation.

(g) Cancellation and substitution. If the event or travel is postponed, rescheduled, or cancelled for any reason, including weather, public health or security conditions, labor disputes, or government action, Sponsor may substitute travel to a different date or a prize of equal or greater value, and shall have no further obligation to the winner or guest.

(h) Limitation of liability for travel and event. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Released Parties (defined in Section 13) are not responsible for, and the winner and guest assume all risk of, any delay, cancellation, denied boarding, denied event entry, missed connection, lost or damaged baggage, illness, injury, death, loss, damage, or expense arising from or related to travel, lodging, or attendance at any event in connection with the Prize, including the acts or omissions of airlines, hotels, ticket or hospitality providers, and other third parties. Sponsor does not provide travel insurance, and the winner may wish to obtain it at the winner’s own expense. Third-party providers’ terms govern their services, and the winner agrees to look solely to those providers (e.g., the event, airline, hotel, or other entity) for any warranty or remedy.

  1. Publicity. Except where prohibited by law, participation in the Sweepstakes and acceptance of the Prize constitute the winner’s consent to Sponsor’s use of the winner’s name, city and state of residence, photograph, likeness, voice, and Prize information for publicity and promotional purposes in any media, without further notice, compensation, or approval.
  2. Privacy. Sponsor will collect and use the information you provide to administer the Sweepstakes, verify Entries and award the Prize. Sponsor will comply with legal requirements, including completing any required state filings. Sponsor may share your information with its service providers, the Prize/event providers, and government agencies where required. Sponsor’s use of your personal information is governed by its Privacy Policy at https://www.fieldpiece.com/privacy-policy/. If you do not provide the required information, you cannot enter.
  3. General Conditions. Sponsor may, in its sole discretion, disqualify any person it believes tampers with the entry process or the operation of the Sweepstakes, violates these Official Rules, provides false information, or acts in a disruptive manner. If a virus, bug, technical failure, fraud, or any other cause beyond Sponsor’s reasonable control impairs the administration, security, or fairness of the Sweepstakes, Sponsor may cancel, modify, or suspend the Sweepstakes and, if possible, will select the winner at random from all eligible, non-suspect Entries received before the impairment. Sponsor’s failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver. Sponsor is not responsible for typographical or printing errors in any Sweepstakes materials. Sponsor’s decisions on all matters relating to the Sweepstakes are final and binding. The Sweepstakes is subject to all federal, state, and local laws and is void where prohibited. If these Official Rules conflict with any advertising or promotional material, these Official Rules control. If any provision is unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect.
  4. Release; Indemnification; Limitation of Liability; Disclaimer. By entering, you release and hold harmless Sponsor, its parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, distributors, advertising and promotion agencies, Prize providers, and each of their officers, directors, employees, and agents (the “Released Parties”) from any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to your participation in the Sweepstakes or the receipt, use, or misuse of the Prize, including claims for personal injury, death, property damage, technical failures, human error, lost, late or misdirected entries or communications, and errors in the administration of the Sweepstakes. The Released Parties are not liable for attorneys’ fees, or for punitive, consequential, or indirect damages. You waive California Civil Code Section 1542 and any similar law of any state. The Prize is provided “as is,” without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including any warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, which are waived to the fullest extent permitted by law.
  5. Disputes; Governing Law. Except where prohibited by law, you and Sponsor agree that all disputes, claims, and causes of action arising out of or connected with the Sweepstakes or the Prize will be resolved individually, without any class, consolidated, or representative action, and exclusively by binding arbitration administered by JAMS under its rules, conducted in Orange County, California. Claims and awards are limited to actual out-of-pocket costs, and you may not seek rescission, injunctive, or other equitable relief to enjoin or restrain the Sweepstakes. These Official Rules and the Sweepstakes are governed by the laws of the State of California and the Federal Arbitration Act, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Judgment on an arbitration award may be entered in any court within the state of California.
  6. Winners List; Official Rules. These Official Rules are available during the Entry Period at https://www.fieldpiece.com/feeltherushrules/.
