Did you know that sudden damage to “home systems” —such as HVAC and appliances—caused by accident and breakdown is typically not covered under most warranties or service contracts? Did you know this coverage can be added to your homeowner policy? Repairs can often cost thousands of dollars. Similarly, if a gas, water, or any other type of service line coming into your home has a rupture on your property, you as the homeowner are responsible, not the utility company. That responsibility includes repair to the line as well as repair or replacement to disturbed landscaping. These costs can quickly escalate.
If you own a home, you are very familiar with the systems that keep it comfortable and livable–HVAC, water heater, electrical–as well as the electronics and appliances you rely on every day. If you’re a renter, you might not own an HVAC system, but you still have your own electronics, appliances, and exercise equipment that you bring with you.
