Why Buy Warranty
When people hear the term "Extended Warranty" they immediately cringe and think of all the money they'll be wasting on a 10 year plan for something that will NEVER break...this couldn't be any further from the TRUTH. The fact of the matter is, all HVAC equipment are machines, they are man-made and therefore they will fail, they will break, and they will begin to wear and tear. Now, the rate at which these occur depends on the consistency in which the equipment is used and the maintenance performed. Inevitably, the more something is used the faster it will wear down.
Let us provide this example to compare a warranty purchase vs standard service purchases over a 10 year period.
Average Extended Warranty Purchase: $820-1100
Capacitor is blown 2nd year of ownership: $120-200
Condenser motor and capacitor burn out 4th year: $400-600
Evaporator Coil Develops leaks 6th year: $560-720
Contactor breaks most frequently: $130-200
Compressor becomes grounded due to lack of maintenance: $600-1080 (compressors are covered under parts warranty, but labor warranty for installation is not covered and other materials used during installation are not covered as well.)
Best case scenario: $1,810 was spent during the 10 year span after equipment purchase (less expensive pricing).
Worst case scenario: $2,800 was spent (higher pricing)
Not to mention, after the 5 year mark, most HVAC systems begin to fail very frequently, rust and corrosion start to set in and customers find themselves calling their HVAC service company more often than they'd like.
Make the right choice and save yourselves $1000's of your hard-earned cash, buy an extended warranty on your new system today!
