Why it Pays to Rent Your HVAC Equipment

As your furnace, air conditioner or other HVAC equipment gets older, you might start to consider buying out your rental contract. But the risk of a breakdown goes up as equipment ages and a single repair (e.g. faulty furnace motor)+ could cost more than what’s left on your rental agreement. Continuing your rental agreement for older HVAC equipment lets you keep your maintenance and repair coverage* even after the manufacturer’s warranty is done — costing you less than what it would to buy your furnace.

Ongoing Protection, Low Monthly Payments

Here are some facts to help you decide whether you want to rent or buy out your HVAC equipment:

Even if a warranty is available, you will still need to find a third-party contractor to carry out servicing and repairs. 

What Could Maintenance and Repairs Cost?

When you buy your HVAC equipment outright, a single service call could cost several hundred dollars.
