What is Home Systems Breakdown coverage
Home Systems Breakdown coverage* protects you against the mechanical breakdown of the systems you depend on every day, including furnaces, AC units, stoves and more.
Here’s why this coverage is important:
- The risk of a mechanical breakdown is greater than ever, as most home systems are made with many sensitive, moving parts.
- The cost to repair home systems is more expensive than ever.
- Most standard home policies and warranties won’t cover you if a breakdown happens.
