Unfortunately, a little research on the web indicates that Lowe UK won't do
business with us in the States,

They say they won't do business in the US because their "public
liability insurance premium in respect of our sales to the USA and
Canada is no longer worth paying compared to the volume of goods we
sell there". Maybe if you agreed to sign some sort of waiver, they'd
be willing to service your unit? Short of that, maybe they could
recommend someone else, in either the US or Europe, who'd service it.
It never hurts to ask!
