HVAC systems require a regular preventive maintenance schedule so they’ll last for a long time. Most HVAC systems can last from 15 to 25 years, but this service life average is variable and depends on how your HVAC system is structured and much care is put into keeping it functioning optimally. So what are HVAC protection plans, and how can they help reduce your overall HVAC repair cost?
HVAC Protection Plans
The states in North America have varying climates and biomes, and homeowners benefit a lot from reliable HVAC systems. To keep them working optimally, HVAC systems must be regularly taken care of and inspected, and HVAC protection plans cover all the maintenance a homeowner must have done to fully maximize their system. Typical packages include annual inspections that cover your heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems throughout all the seasons of the year.
Usual Coverage
A typical HVAC protection plan usually covers the standard maintenance checklist, which includes checking the condition of the thermostat, securing all electrical connections, lubricating moving parts in the system, checking out the condensate drain and checking the main controls of the HVAC system. All of the parts and mechanisms detailed on the standard checklist are essential for optimal operation.
In addition, homeowners usually enjoy many other benefits that are included in an HVAC protection plan, like no deductibles or copays, high-priority service calls, 24/7 emergency assistance and even discounted prices for most services. You should always communicate with your HVAC contractor and avail yourself of the maintenance packages provided by your HVAC repair company.
Home Warranty vs. Protection Plan
Home warranty plans cover the costs involved in repairing and replacing broken home systems and amenities. However, they don’t cover preventive maintenance, which is important for systems that are used regularly, like your HVAC system. It’s easier to think of it this way: warranties are meant to cover costs for incurred damages or a replacement, while a protection plan is intended to lessen the likelihood of incurring damage in the first place. When it comes to cost-efficient solutions, always remember that prevention is better than repairing or replacing later.
