A home warranty covers the repair or replacement of major systems and appliances from unexpected breakdowns caused by normal wear and tear due to everyday use. Homeowners insurance covers loss from incidents like fire, storms or vandalism. The coverage provided by a home warranty and homeowners insurance does not overlap but does complement one another to provide comprehensive protection.

Included in most service contracts a home warranty will replace a heater that cannot be repaired. Heaters are usually covered under either a basic plan or can sometimes be an upgrade or add-on to your plan. Read more.

If it seems like they don't make things like they used to, it's not your imagination. These days, appliances don't always last due in part to cheaper production strategies and diminished competition. You may be surprised to learn that many manufacturers also engage in planned obsolescence, where they may intentionally design products to fail faster so consumers will have to purchase replacements.

For example, a new dishwasher has a 20% chance of breaking down within the first four years of ownership. A front-loading washing machine has a 25% chance of a breakdown, and a side-by-side refrigerator and freezer have a 36% chance of breaking down. Home warranties help protect against those odds.

High-end appliances can offer good value in many circumstances because they save energy, reduce waste and offer premium functions. That said, since they often have complex electrical systems and computer components, high-end appliances can be very expensive to repair and replace. If you choose to purchase a high-end appliance, consider insuring against unmanageable and unexpected costs with a home warranty.

Proper appliance maintenance can help reduce the risk of breakdowns and prolong its life. Consult this helpful maintenance guide from 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty to keep your systems and appliances running in high gear.

Testing and inspecting the home’s systems and appliances is always the best way to ensure that those items are working, and home inspections are a great first start. However, home inspectors are not experts in every home system, but are generalists trained to recognize evidence of potential problems. Having a qualified heating and air conditioning service contractor conduct a thorough and exhaustive inspection of the HVAC system can enhance a home listed for sale, and reassure buyers that the most expensive system in their home is in good working order.

2-10 HBW HVAC Certification provides an inexpensive way to check the HVAC thoroughly for any existing failure before closing and/or the beginning of the service period. And, we believe so strongly in the value of this, that when your system passes and receives an HVAC Certification, we will waive the pre-existing condition clause. This service is subject to availability so call to verify if the program is offered in your area.

Another option to ensure your HVAC systems are in good working order is using our Pre-Season HVAC Tune-Up preventative maintenance option in the Home Warranty Service Agreement. With this option, the homeowner can request a pre-season tune-up between February and March or October and November on up to two systems. A system is considered one heating unit and one air conditioning unit. A service fee if due per system. If eligible repairs and replacements beyond the tune-up are required, no additional service fee is due. Note that Pre-Season HVAC Tune-Up is not available in all areas, please refer to your service agreement for your specific coverage.

Yes. When renewing a home warranty, you will have the option to pay in full or make monthly payments. You can choose between a monthly payment plan to pay once a month or pay every 4 months. Payments will be automatically withdrawn from the credit card on file. A service fee of 9.5% is added to manage the payment process.

Mobile homes located on a permanent foundation are eligible for enrollment in our new home Structural Warranty program for Manufactured/Modular homes and for service under our home warranty service agreement.

Systems and appliances located in park model RVs, fifth wheels, motor homes, travel trailers and campers not on a permanent foundation are not eligible for coverage.

A breakdown can occur at any time, even in new homes. Customers who have been in their homes for three years or less place an average of two claims each year. Newer systems and appliances are more complex and can cost substantially more to repair. A home warranty from 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty protects you from these unexpected repairs.
