Warranty Information
Read on for important information on what’s included in your warranty
Stay protected
Your equipment likely has a parts warranty on it, provided by its manufacturer. When Family Plumbing & Heating installs your HVAC equipment, that comes with a labor warranty that stays active when you have it serviced annually.
Of course, warranties can’t cover everything, and there’s no accounting for the unexpected, so it’s important to keep your plumbing, heating, and cooling equipment in good shape. We don’t require a precision tune-up every year with our services, but experience has taught us that it’s a real benefit to our customers, and we highly recommend it.
Keeping your air and plumbing systems tuned up annually will help them last longer and remain efficient over time. This can save you a lot of money in the long run on repairs and energy, and greatly reduce the chance that costly and sometimes dangerous malfunctions will take place. Just as you’d get your oil changed in your car regularly, maintaining your home or building air and plumbing systems are part of maintaining your investment.
Annual tune-ups are not included in purchase prices, but are highly recommended and very often pay for themselves over time thanks to the repair costs you won’t have to end up paying, plus efficiency improvements!
