Top 8 Things to Look for When Exploring an Extended Warranty for a Temperature Control

Picture this: it’s the dead of winter, and the biting cold is seeping inside. The last thing you want is a malfunctioning boiler temperature control that can leave you and your tenants shivering. This is where an extended warranty service steps in as a beacon of reassurance. Beyond just a safety net, it’s a strategic move that underscores your commitment to a comfortable living environment. In the following blog, we’ll unravel the key considerations that deserve your attention when selecting an extended warranty service for your boiler temperature control. Whether you’re a building owner or a facility manager, this guide will empower you to make a choice that safeguards your thermal comfort year-round.

What should you look out for in an extended warranty service?

1. Long Term Protection of Your System

An extended warranty should cover repairs and replacements over an extended period that go beyond the manufacturer’s initial warranty. Regular maintenance that is included in the warranty will help ensure the longevity and the most optimal use of your boiler temperature control system and you’ll gain the most on your investment.

2. Financial Protection

To protect your budget and alleviate stress from unexpected expenses associated with boiler temperature control issues, look for a good warranty that actually covers full costs for potential repairs and necessary replacements, including the labor and parts.

3. Expedited Repairs

A comprehensive warranty should feature expedited repairs and replacements, minimizing downtime for your multi-family building’s heating system and ensuring uninterrupted comfort for tenants and residents. This will ensure the peace of mind and reassurance that comes from knowing your repair is being done promptly.

4. Experienced and Dedicated Support Team

It’s a good idea to go with a warranty that includes an experienced and dedicated support team that is attuned to your needs, with the ability to assist you through any issue that you are experiencing. A proper support team can often help you avoid a service call, helping you get your temperature control back up and running faster! 

5. Support Around the Clock

When you have questions or challenges with the temperature in your building, you need solutions ASAP to minimize the impact on your properties and tenants. Look for a warranty that includes round the clock access to a team of experienced professionals during the work day and after hours as well. Some warranty packages may even include prioritized support for customers.

6. Annual Tech Checks

A yearly remote tech check should be done by a team of qualified specialists and a thorough evaluation of the boiler control system should be conducted. It should include the meticulous inspection of the remote monitoring infrastructure, verifying the functionality of sensors, setup optimization, and communication protocols. Through this examination, potential vulnerabilities, or areas for improvement can be identified and promptly addressed. Some warranties will send a technician free of charge if a malfunction is detected.

7. Compliance with Regulations

Some regions or local authorities may require certain warranty coverage for temperature control systems to comply with building codes and regulations.

8. Transferability

If you’re looking at selling your multi-family building in the future, you may want to ask if a warranty can be transferred. Knowing that a property’s temperature control system is covered under warranty could be very valuable to potential buyers.
