Customer benefits include the ability to have a contractor assigned and dispatched when a service call appears to be required. The Administrator will dispatch a pre-qualified contractor to repair covered components. We pledge to expedite the dispatch and service call process however effective response times may be affected by extreme weather conditions and time-of-year situations. All calls for repairs will be handled in the order in which they are received (except emergency calls – see below). The Administrator will handle Customer calls for service 24/7. Service requests after 5pm will be assigned and dispatched the following day, except emergency calls which will be handled immediately.

Preventive maintenance is not covered under any PLAN(S). The Administrator and its approved contractors shall not be responsible for service or parts the Customer has others provide. Coverage of each PLAN(S) starts after the first payment is received and continues thereafter so long as the Customer makes timely payments. Customer payments prepay coverage under the PLAN(S). Coverage is suspended at the end of the prepaid period in cases of nonpayment. Customer account must be in good standing to receive repair service under this program. For each PLAN(S), the Agreement is automatically renewed upon receipt of payment from Customer for a new Term. A Term is defined as a month in length. Failure to pay for a new Term upon the expiration of an existing Term will result in Lapse of Coverage. No refunds will be provided for early Cancellations. Customers may cancel the Agreement with no obligation within 30 days of enrollment and obtain a full refund of any fees paid. All covered equipment must be installed to manufacturers’ specifications and meet code requirements. The Administrator reserves the right to inspect equipment any time after the receipt of an enrollment, and to reject the application if the equipment to be covered is not functioning properly. To be eligible for the program, all equipment must be installed to meet local, state and federal codes, must satisfy manufacturer requirements for proper installation, must be in good operating condition at the time of enrollment and must be properly maintained.

The Customer is also required to provide the Administrator and its contractors with safe and reasonable access to the premises and appliances. In addition, PLAN(S) does not cover the cost of gaining access to system components or restoration costs such as plaster, drywall, or ceiling repair. The Customer is responsible for standard service fees by the dispatched contractor unless covered work has been performed, in which case service charges are waived. Charges for service calls where no covered work has been conducted, or for routine maintenance or diagnostic work requested by the Customer, are subject to standard service fees by the dispatched contractor.

The waiver or failure of the Administrator to exercise any right in connection with the PLAN(S) shall not be deemed a waiver of any further right thereof. This program is intended for the repair of covered equipment, not the replacement of equipment which We deem beyond repair.
