When key systems in your home malfunction, the impact is immediate and stressful. A plumbing issue, such as a burst pipe, can quickly lead to water damage, while electrical faults — like wiring problems or tripped circuits — can leave your home without lighting. HVAC breakdowns, due to a failed compressor or broken thermostat disrupt your comfort, especially during extreme weather. And a water heater failure can leave you with cold showers and delays to your family’s daily routines.
The Home Essentials Program protects your home from things like:
Overflowing toilet
Thermostat malfunctioning
Weak HVAC airflow
Circuit breakers
Faulty wiring
Drain valve leaks
Unexpected repairs can be both daunting and costly. Our Home Essentials Program protects you from these unexpected costs. See above for what we cover.
