ADA gives 3 year warranty to Japanese tank only as i know. So only for Japan (local) customers.
Because of the transportation risk to EU there are only 1 year or no warranty between the importer and ADA Japan.
So whatever happens with the tank the importer need to cover it on its own money.
This was a new thing in the past half year or so, shortly after ADA moved the production to another place.
But there's nothing to do with the quality. ADA put extremely high effort to do the best tanks on the planet with great QC.
They increased the glass thickness in the past year based on the users feedback to provide longer life on the large tanks above 90P. Also the new provider for their tanks just perform really well. They even changed their glasses to a nicer one.
On the silicone work we also produce tanks localy. Imported the German tanks too and seen the ADA ones.
German silicone work is the best in EU. This was the reason why ADA used the manufacturer for their tank before.
This is a bit thicker but super strong. Probably they do this with a machine as so even and perfect everywhere without any bubbles in it. We have an 120x45x45 with 8mm glass in our gallery with 4-4mm bow on both sides and the silicone works without any bubbles. However when we produced the other 120P tank we used 10mm glass for safety reason, but also because i was sure the local manufacturer will not be able to provide the german quality to me.
Old tank makers using internal silicone since the black silicone work. There was not really a request to have the minimal silo around the tank edges. But with the transparent this looks ugly. However above a size still many manufacturer use this for safety reason and for long life. But as we can see on the ADA on German tanks this is possible without that internal stuff too. Maybe they not take the risk.
