Fisher & Paykel is a major manufacturer of refrigerators, dishwashers, laundry machines, ventilation units, ovens, cooktops, ranges, and other home appliances and accessories. If you own a Fisher & Paykel appliance, you should be mindful of the terms of the company’s limited warranty policy to avoid overpaying for potential repair costs. Here’s what you need to know.
As a general rule, Fisher & Paykel provides a two-year limited manufacturer’s warranty on all appliances. This warranty covers all costs of parts and labor if the appliance requires repair because of a mechanical defect or poor workmanship. Fisher & Paykel refrigerators have an additional three years of coverage for the sealed refrigeration system (i.e., the compressor, evaporator, condenser, filter dryer, and connecting tubing).
Don’t neglect the fine print. If you’re a resident of Alaska, you’re responsible for the cost of shipping your appliance to a service center or sending a technician to your home for a service call. If you’re using the appliance in commercial applications, the warranty is valid for one year and covers parts only.
Fisher & Paykel’s warranty does not cover damage sustained from misuse or abuse, incorrect installation, faulty in-home wiring, pests, accidents, fires, or floods.
If you bought your Fisher & Paykel appliance secondhand, the company will continue to honor the warranty, provided it has been less than two years since the original owner’s purchase.
Once the limited warranty expires, you have two options to repair your Fisher & Paykel appliances. One option is to simply pay for repairs yourself when needed. The second option is to invest in Fisher & Paykel protection plans or extended warranties.
Fisher & Paykel has offered their own extended warranties in the past, but consumers are more likely to obtain one through a third party. This third party could be the retail store where the appliance was purchased. It could also be a home warranty provider, such as Liberty Home Guard.
We can provide extended, affordable protection for your Fisher & Paykel appliances. What’s more, we can help you bundle coverage to include your other home appliances and systems, even if they were manufactured by different companies.
