← Contractor Quote AuditorWhat to check on the estimate
- Labor warranty length and who provides it
- Manufacturer/parts warranty length and registration
- What each one actually covers
- Whether a service call fee applies under warranty
- Maintenance requirements that keep coverage valid
- Transferability of each on sale of the home
Questions worth asking
- How long is labor covered, and by whom?
- How long are parts covered, and does that require registration?
- If a part fails in year three, who pays for the labor to replace it?
- Is there a service call fee on warranty visits?
- Does skipping annual maintenance void either warranty?
- Do either of these transfer if I sell?

Which one matters more?
For most equipment, labor. Parts are often covered for years while labor is covered for one, and labor is the expensive half of a repair.
Who registers the manufacturer warranty?
Sometimes the installer, sometimes you. If nobody does it, coverage can default to a shorter term.
