Should You Get A Home Warranty?

I could never say it better than one of my recent buyers could:

Uh... yeahhHHHHH!

Let me give you at least three good reasons why you should seriously consider an:

HSA Home Warranty.

Because of new Federal Legislation regarding Energy Efficiency Requirements for Air Conditioners and Heat Pumps, replacing any of these units with like kind will soon be impossible due to unavailability of the "old" parts.

New Federal Regulations regarding 13 SEER Click Here

Reason 1 - Your home has a furnace! Those critters seem to have a knack for not wanting to run on a cold winter nite. Funny how they never seem to break down in the summer? Any ways... a typical repair bill for a heating system is $95 - $600*. To replace a faulty one would cost anywhere from $1325 - $3700.

Everyone that is pretty fair in math, please raise their hands....

Quiz Question 1: What is your potential savings should your heating system break down?

Reason 2 - Your home has a central air unit! These critters seem to have a similar knack for breaking down during the hot summer months. Under HSA's new product warranty, when an air conditioner or heat pump fails and it is not possible to repair it, and/or they no longer have access to like-SEER/HSPF equipment, HSA will replace the broken down system with equipment that meets 13 SEER.7.7 HSPF requirements. PLUS... the solution will utilize the new TX valve or replacing the evaporator coil/air handler and line set to match the SEER/HSPF rating of the new equipment. Typical repair costs from $200 - $1,100 with replacement costs $1,475 - $4,200.

Reason 3 - Your home has a gas water heater! New government standards that have recently taken effect are designed to make water heaters safer for homeowners by reducing the likelyhood of explosions. (The changes have helped prevent gas or other toxic spills near a water heater from igniting, causing fires in the home. Under new designs, if flammable combustion vapors from a nearby spill should enter the sealed combustion chamber and ignite, the fire can't go backwards and ignite the rest of the vapors just outside of the heater.) Typical repair costs $85 - $210, with replacement costs $420 - $705.
