HVAC Workmanship Warranty

As far as protection goes for your HVAC system, there are a few warranty levels that are different. Being a guarantee or a promise made to the customer, the manufacturer is stating that the equipment was made correctly and should function properly. The guarantee is usually implied and free of charge to consumers and are not always written out. Being between consumer and manufacturer, the manufacturer’s warranty is the legal agreement that states they will fix or replace a faulty part or product within a certain timeframe. When you contact the manufacturer to replace the parts of a newly installed HVAC system where the motor stopped working due to no one’s fault is an example of this. The manufacturer’s warranty is typically presented to you as a written contract or certificate at the time of installation. In the event something breaks down due to improper installation, the company will cover the cost. A labor warranty is something that the HVAC contractor may offer that ensures the system was installed correctly.
