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 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 ends, costing you less than it would to buy your furnace.
