Warranty validation is solely dependent on the manufacturer’s requirements for the product(s) purchased.
How do I validate my warranty on products that require professional installation?
To validate your warranty, a licensed professional must have either fully installed or inspected your equipment before and including turning on the product(s) during initial start-up. After the initial start-up has been completed the professional will provide you with a dated installation invoice detailing the model(s) and applicable serial number(s) of the equipment.
We strongly recommend you keep that in a safe place for future referencing and if possible scan the document to keep a duplicate as a digital copy.
Some manufacturers also require registration with them of the product(s) installed within the first 30-60 days from installation / initial start-up to validate and receive the product(s) full warranty coverage. Restrictions due apply, see manufacturers documentation shipped along with the product(s) or refer to applicable manufacturer's website for an up-to-date warranty terms.
We reserve the right to reject any warranty claim for a replacement part(s) and/or repairs if all or any of the required documentation is not provided at the time of filing a claim.
How do I validate my warranty on products that DO NOT require professional installation?
Some manufactures only require you to keep the original purchase invoice and others require registration with them of the product(s) purchased within the first 30-60 days of receiving the product(s) to validate the full warranty coverage. Restrictions due apply, see manufacturers documentation shipped along with the product(s) or refer to applicable manufacturer's website for an up-to-date warranty terms.

I had a leak in my unit and all the refrigerant leaked out is that covered under warranty?
No, under no circumstances will any refrigerant (Freon) ((example: R22 or R410A)) be covered or reimbursed if refrigerant needs to be re-added to the system; whether it is missing from the unit when it arrives to the customer's location or after a part(s) is/are replaced.

If I do the warranty with a local professional will HVAC365 cover any costs associated with a local warranty claim?
Since we only working with the most reputable, trusted manufacturers in the Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning industry, in most cases you have the option of processing warranty claims with local professionals. We understand that filing warranties locally can speed up the process to have your product(s) up and running faster however, should you elect to take this avenue, HVAC365 cannot provide a warranty claim for replacement part(s) and/or repairs. It is either your local distributor or HVAC365 filing a warranty claim for part(s) at any given time not both at the same time for the same part(s).
In some occasions the local distributor may charge fees for processing and handling of your warranty claims since they did not sell the equipment directly. Under no circumstances will HVAC365 reimburse any cost(s) incurred with performing any local warranty claims.
How long does it take once my warranty claim is submitted for a warranty agent to contact me?
Our normal response time via email or phone is within 1-3 business days (Excluding holidays or weekends). To assure the fastest processing possible we ask that you provide more than two contact phone numbers and frequently check your email for updates.
Total processing time of a warranty claim is determined by a few factors such as manufacturer approval codes for replacement part(s) and/or repair, warranty part(s) availability and customer’s speed of answering our request(s) in regards to providing additional information if required.
Are the replacement warranty part(s) refurbished?
In most cases the replacement part(s) are brand new, however there are some manufacturers do provide refurbished warranty replacement part(s). If this is applicable to you, you will be notified when you submit your warranty claim. The manufacturer does run extensive testing on the refurbished product(s) to ensure its stability and full functionality.
What does it mean, to have my product “Repaired”?
In some cases, the manufacturer will request the product(s) to be shipping to them for repairs. They diagnose the issue that occurred at time of failure and repair/replace the part(s) required to get the product(s) operational again. The manufacturer does run extensive testing on the repaired product(s) to ensure its stability and full functionality.
If the defect is covered by the manufacturer's warranty, the item will be repaired free of charge and returned to you. Repairs can take up to 10 business days (excluding delivery time), but may take slightly longer depending on several factors such as part(s) availability, troubleshooting time and repair time.
Should a repair be required within the first 30 days from purchase then shipping cost(s) will be covered by HVAC365 via the traceable ground services only. If you are outside of the 30 days from purchase then you will incur applicable shipping to and from fees which are non-refundable. HVAC365 is not liable for any costs and/or expenses incurred, nor will it provide reimbursements or compensation of any kind to any customer for a product(s) repair, uninstallation and reinstallation.
What if my issue(s) are not covered by the warranty policy for items being repaired?
If the problem isn't covered by the manufacturer's warranty, or if the warranty has been voided (e.g., the item has been accidentally damaged or not installed by a professional when required), you'll be contacted by the repairer with a repair estimate. You can decide whether to ask the repairer to proceed with the repair at an additional cost, or have the item returned to you. Payment for such repairs, including any applicable delivery charges, will have to be made directly to the repairer.
Can a home owner install the products sold on our site?
Products that require installation sold on our site are intended by the manufacturers to be installed by professionals. They are available to you on this site as a means of saving a substantial amount of money. We know the advantage of self-installation, as well as any disadvantages, and it's your decision to purchase from us and install on your own. Any person or entity that decides on self-installation is responsible for and accepts all risk of both installation and equipment selection.
Having these systems installed by a licensed professional is costly, but it has its advantages - professional installation, labor warranty (may be provided as an additional service by the professional), the validation of your manufacturer's warranty, and potentially someone to process warranty claims for you.
Most importantly we recommend a professional for safety reasons. We strongly recommend against any home owners installing (if applicable) their own product(s).
Most of the manufacturers of these product(s) sold on our site have no provisions to provide warranty replacement part(s) or technical support to the homeowner. They only work through dealers, such as your local heating and air conditioning professional.

My unit is not functioning and I want a new product(s) replacement, what do I do?

Most cases just require a professional resetting the product(s) in order to get it functional again. Before you file a warranty request we strongly recommend you contact a professional to diagnosis your product(s).

We recommend you review the manufacturers documentation shipped along with the product(s) or refer to applicable manufacturer's website for an up-to-date troubleshooting hotline availability.
Should the manufacturer authorize a product(s) replacement, there will be applicable shipping cost(s) to and from our facility. HVAC365 is not liable for any costs and/or expenses incurred, nor will it provide reimbursements or compensation of any kind to any customer for troubleshooting and/or product(s) replacement’s uninstallation and reinstallation.
