Can a Home Warranty Cover an Old HVAC Unit?

As appliances like HVAC units age, it becomes more important to stay on top of the unit’s maintenance. You might find yourself wondering and even worrying if your HVAC unit’s age will affect that type of warranty coverage. So, are old HVAC units covered by home warranties? Yes! Home Warranty One covers all appliances that you choose in your coverage plan, meaning you don’t have to worry about your appliances’ old age.

Selecting Coverage for Older HVAC Systems

When enrolling in a home warranty, customers can select various coverage options. Standard appliances include washing machines, dryers, stoves, cooktops, dishwashers, built-in microwaves, and garbage disposals. For systems, homeowners may add heating systems, water heaters, plumbing, ductwork, cooling units, and electrical systems. Additional coverage is available for pools, hot tubs, sprinkler systems, and wells.

The monthly cost proves economical when compared to emergency repair or replacement expenses for major appliances like HVAC units.

Important Coverage Requirements

Two key points warrant attention:

1. Initial waiting period: Coverage typically begins 30 days after initial payment.

2. Documentation: Customers should maintain records of previous repairs, as Home Warranty One may request this history to authorize coverage decisions.
