Water Softener Warranty Coverage

Water Softener Warranty Coverage

Not all water is the same. Water can vary in terms of household use, depending on the materials dissolved within it. Hard water contains traces of calcium, magnesium, and other materials—which can damage your appliances and other essential home systems.

Hard water isn’t ideal for home use, so many households have water softeners to convert hard water to soft water. If your home’s water softener fails for any reason, you may experience some issues:

  • Your clothes break down more quickly when hard water enters your washing machine.
  • Dishes may receive spots and marks when they come out of the dishwasher.
  • Hard water in the shower can irritate your hair and skin.

To protect yourself from these problems, get in touch with a provider for water softener home warranty coverage.

What Do Homeowner Warranty Plans Actually Cover?

What’s your game plan when a home appliance or system suddenly fails from regular use? Chances are, a manufacturer’s warranty will be long expired since they tend to last only a year on average.

Homeowners insurance usually includes damages only from tornadoes, fires, and other related incidents. It typically doesn’t account for wear and tear damage.

Under normal circumstances, you will have to find yourself a certified contractor and pay top dollar for expensive repairs and replacements. But what if you can’t balance the family checkbook for such a cost, and how long will the whole process take? Are you able to use hard water during that time?

A water softener warranty is your solution. For a regular monthly fee, your provider will cover the costs of the repair and even choose a pre-selected contractor for you. The result is a water softener that’s ready to go faster without putting a dent in your wallet.

What Components of a Water Softener Usually Fail?

A water softener contains multiple moving parts that may become damaged and impact the overall performance of your unit.

  • Single or twin water softener units may become less efficient over time.
  • The well pump that supplies your home with its water may lose function thanks to normal wear and tear.
  • Electrical or mechanical problems can also cause issues for the homeowner.

In all these cases, a home warranty is invaluable to protecting you and your family from extensive appliance failures. Don’t expect DIY repairs for these parts either, as they require professional experience to service.

Finding a reputable contractor that understands your water softener system isn’t easy—add to that the challenge of getting a reasonable price—and it’s clear why home warranty plans are a must-have for today’s homeowners.

What Are My Options for Home Warranties?

Policy options vary by provider. Take Liberty Home Guard as an example. This provider gives you the option of customizing your coverage so that you aren’t paying for features you won’t need.

Protection can be for appliances, systems, or both. Some plans can cost merely a few dollars a month, depending on your preferences. No matter what, a home warranty plan gives your family peace of mind and is ultimately cheaper in the long run, as home systems are always bound to require professional work after a few years.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

HOME WARRANTY
  • What is a home warranty?

    A home warranty is a service contract that covers the cost of repairs and replacements for your home’s systems and appliances when they break down over time from normal wear and tear.

  • How does a home warranty work?

    It’s simple, you can select the coverage plan of your choice that is the best fit for your home and budget.

    When you request service for a covered item, you will be charged a pre-set fee in order to initiate the service request.

    With an LHG home warranty, when a covered item needs repair, simply follow these steps:

    • File a claim online or call.
    • After paying your set fee, we’ll put you in contact with a local contractor to schedule your appointment.
    • After officially diagnosing the problem, the contractor will contact us to make sure the issue is covered by your plan.
    • If everything checks out, the contractor will then repair or replace the item in question.
    • Afterwards, we’ll check in with you by email or phone to make sure you’re happy with the job.
  • What does a home warranty cover?

    Liberty Home Guard offers 3 different plans depending on the coverage your home needs. The Total Home Guard is a combination of both our Appliance Guard and Systems Guard plan. It is our most comprehensive and most economical.

    We offer add-ons to each plan. Check HERE for our Home Warranty Plans & Policies page to learn more about everything we cover.

  • How is a home warranty different from homeowner’s insurance?

    A home warranty covers the costs of repairs and replacements of major home appliances and systems. Home systems, for example, include plumbing, electrical, and HVAC.

    Homeowners insurance provides coverage if theft or natural disaster hits.

  • How is a home warranty different from a manufacturer’s warranty?

    The main difference is that a manufacturer’s warranty generally covers the failed part of a single appliance, but usually doesn’t include the cost of labor or repair. With a home warranty, one plan covers a variety of systems and appliances, making it a more cost-effective way to safeguard your home.

  • Why is buying a home warranty a good decision for homeowners?

    A home warranty protects the homeowner’s budget by removing the risk of fluctuating expenses when big ticket items break down. With a Liberty Home Guard home warranty, the homeowner will pay for a monthly plan, along with a flat rate service call fee associated with any repairs, rather than the full retail cost of replacing or repairing any of their home appliances or systems.

  • Do I have to get a home inspection before getting a Liberty Home Guard home warranty?

    No. Liberty Home Guard doesn’t require a home inspection or any maintenance records to purchase a home warranty plan.

  • How long does it take to fulfill a service request?

    Liberty Home Guard will dispatch a licensed technician to your home within 24 - 48 (business) hours of your request. Extenuating circumstances do apply.

  • Can I choose my own service contractor?

    Yes, you absolutely can. We only ask that you reach out to us first so that we can authorize the contractor you'd like to work with. This helps ensure that the highest standards are applied and that you and your family are kept safe. In our experience, you will usually save the most money and get the best work done using an LHG Certified Professional. All of our contractors are licensed professionals, and their work comes with a 60-day workmanship guarantee.

  • What happens if I sell my home?
