What Home Warranty Plans Typically Do Not Cover
Like other types of warranties or service contracts, home warranty plans have limitations on coverage. Typically, home warranties don't cover the modifications or changes required when new equipment gets installed. For example, if an HVAC system needs replacement, electrical or structural modifications may be required to accommodate the new unit. Or a new hot water heater might require changes to pipes coming in and out of the unit. A home warranty usually will not cover these types of changes.
