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:
| Rental | Buyout | |
| Protection | Your Enercare Advantage™ rental gives you peace of mind with free maintenance and repairs for the life of your unit.** Our trained technicians carry out all their work to the highest standards of quality and timeliness. | When you buy your unit, you take on the responsibility of paying for all repairs, parts and labour. |
| Cost | You pay one predictable, competitive monthly fee for your Enercare Advantage™ rental. | You pay a single lump sum buyout fee and assume ongoing costs of maintenance and repair. |
| Support | Enercare Advantage™ gives you unlimited service calls and 24/7 access to 700+ certified technicians, with same-day service if you call before 5 p.m.** | You may have some coverage under the manufacturer’s warranty, but that will expire at some point with an older unit. 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.
