The Truth Behind AC Warranties (Part 2)

We continue revealing the truth behind AC warranties (Part 2) in this blog.  Therefore, today we explore how to add 5 years to your warranty at no cost, and 6 simple rules to keep your AC warranty from becoming void.

What does it mean to register my AC unit?

Registering your AC unit means submitting your model and serial number to the manufacturer to show proof of possession.  Furthermore, most require registration within 60-90 days. This simple step will add 5 years to your warranty for a total of 10 years on parts.

What should I do to keep my warranty from becoming void?

Yes, there are ways to void your warranty.  In fact, did you know your AC warranty can become void if you don’t perform regular maintenance on your system?  In addition, most warranties are only valid if the installed AC system remains in possession of the original owner.

Simple innocent mistakes can void your warranty.  Be mindful of these 6 simple rules:

  • Hire a certified licensed AC company to install the unit.
  • Retain the same AC company for repairs. Avoid the urge to ‘Do it yourself.’ Labor performed by anyone other than a certified AC company is not covered.
  • Purchase a Maintenance Plan from the same AC company from which you purchased the unit. Remember, you are developing a relationship with your AC company.  Therefore, choose them wisely.
