What Does A Home Warranty Cover?

There are many things to love about being a homeowner in Buffalo Grove or Lincolnshire. But nobody loves expensive repairs - and when the heating system starts acting up or an appliance breaks down, suddenly owning a home can start to feel less like a dream and more like a hassle. 

 

A home warranty is a service contract that covers the repair or replacement of parts and components of your home's systems and appliances when they break down due to normal wear and tear. 

 

A home warranty can offer four types of warranty plans: 

  • Appliances
  • Systems components
  • Combination (both appliances and systems)
  • Build your own (specific appliances and/or systems)

You may be able to add on optional coverages for an additional fee.

The warranties cover normal wear and tear—for instance, a dishwasher would be covered if it began leaking due to its age; a dishwasher would not be covered if its door was broken by a child jumping on it. 

 

Here's a list of what a home warranty typically covers. 

 

Covered appliances
  • Refrigerators
  • Ranges/ovens/cooktops
  • Clothes washers
  • Clothes dryers
  • Dishwashers
  • Built-in microwaves ovens
  • Trash compactors
  • Free-standing ice makers
  • Garage door openers
  • Built-in food centers
 
Covered systems components
  • Air conditioning with ductwork
  • Heating with ductwork
  • Electrical
  • Doorbells
  • Smoke detectors
  • Ceiling fans
  • Plumbing including stoppages
  • Water heaters
  • Garbage disposals
  • Instant hot/cold water dispensers
  • Central vacuums

Optional coverages
  • Pool only
  • In-ground spa only
  • Pool/in-ground spa
  • Additional spa
  • Well pump
  • Septic pump & septic sewage ejector
  • pump (only available in first year of contract)
