Residential HVAC Warranty Coverage Pricing, Terms, and Exclusions
GENMECH HVAC residential warranty coverage protects home HVAC systems under three maintenance agreement tiers. Coverage is priced per ton of system capacity with a per system minimum, built around central AC, gas furnaces, heat pumps, and mini splits for homeowners in Midland, Odessa, Greenwood, Stanton, and Big Spring. This page lists tier pricing, example quotes, enrollment requirements, and exclusions.
What Warranty Coverage Means
GENMECH HVAC residential warranty coverage is a service contract that protects home HVAC systems under one of three maintenance agreement tiers. It is separate from the manufacturer equipment warranty and covers labor, parts, and (at Level 3) compressor replacement on your central AC, furnace, heat pump, or mini split. All equipment must pass an initial inspection before enrollment. Existing deficiencies are excluded until repaired. Coverage is priced per ton of cooling capacity with a minimum per system, and each agreement runs a 12 month term with the option to upgrade, downgrade, or add systems at renewal.
Ready to enroll? Call (432) 528-8905 or request an initial inspection. We inspect every system in your home, note age and condition, then send a written coverage proposal with the tier, exclusions, and annual price for each system. No obligation to enroll.
Three Coverage Levels
Each tier covers a defined scope of parts, labor, and equipment. Coverage scales up from filters and inspection at Level 1, to covered parts and repair labor at Level 2, to full compressor replacement at Level 3. Full pricing and example annual costs appear in the next section.
Basic Preventive Maintenance
Two scheduled tune ups and filter service each year. Best for newer systems in good condition with a modest coverage budget.
- Two preventive maintenance visits per year
- Standard filter replacement each visit
- Full equipment inspection report
- Priority scheduling ahead of non contract calls
- Discounted labor rate on repairs outside coverage
- Discounted parts pricing on repairs outside coverage
Maintenance Plus Repair Coverage
Everything in Level 1 plus covered repair labor and replacement parts. The right plan for most homes running systems 5 to 10 years old.
- Everything in Level 1, at the same cadence
- Covered repair labor on enrolled equipment
- Covered replacement parts (capacitors, contactors, relays)
- Mechanical and electrical repairs included
- Belts, bearings, and drive components covered
- Excludes compressor and coil replacement (see Level 3)
Full Coverage Including Compressor
Total protection including compressor replacement. Built for newer systems where a compressor failure would trigger a major repair or full replacement decision.
- Everything in Levels 1 and 2, plus:
- Compressor replacement (one per unit per term)
- Compressor replacement labor
- Refrigerant required for compressor replacement
- Startup and testing after compressor replacement
- Recommended for equipment under 12 to 15 years old
Warranty Coverage Pricing
Coverage is priced per ton of cooling capacity with a minimum charge per system. Most homes have a 2 to 5 ton central AC. Rule of thumb: about 1 ton per 500 to 600 square feet in the Midland climate. Equipment over 10 years old or in poor condition may fall outside standard rates and receive a custom quote after inspection.
Annual Coverage Pricing
| Coverage Level | Annual Price per Ton | Minimum per Unit |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1. Basic Preventive Maintenance | $85 per ton | $450 per system |
| Level 2. Maintenance Plus Repair Coverage | $185 per ton | $950 per system |
| Level 3. Full Coverage Including Compressor | $325 per ton | $1,750 per system |
Homes with multiple systems (dual zone, upstairs and downstairs, or main plus casita) are priced per system. Ask about multi system enrollment when you request your inspection.
Example Annual Pricing by Home Size
| System Size (Home Range) | Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 ton (900 to 1,300 sqft) | $450 (minimum) | $950 (minimum) | $1,750 (minimum) |
| 3 ton (1,300 to 1,900 sqft) | $450 (minimum) | $950 (minimum) | $1,750 (minimum) |
| 4 ton (1,900 to 2,500 sqft) | $450 (minimum) | $950 (minimum) | $1,750 (minimum) |
| 5 ton (2,500 to 3,300 sqft) | $450 (minimum) | $950 (minimum) | $1,750 (minimum) |
| 6 ton (dual system, 3,300 to 4,000 sqft) | $510 | $1,110 | $1,950 |
| 8 ton (dual system, 4,000 to 5,000 sqft) | $680 | $1,480 | $2,600 |
Most 2 to 5 ton residential systems hit the per system minimum. Larger homes with dual zone systems or heavier tonnage cross the minimum and pay the per ton rate.
Example Quote. 3 Ton Home Central AC
| Coverage Level | Annual Price |
|---|---|
| Level 1 | $450 per year |
| Level 2 | $950 per year |
| Level 3 | $1,750 per year |
Sample quote based on a standard 3 ton central AC serving a 1,500 to 1,800 sqft home in good condition. System age, refrigerant type, and equipment condition can adjust final pricing.
Enrollment Requirements
All equipment must pass an initial inspection before enrollment. These conditions protect the coverage pool and keep annual pricing predictable for every customer on an agreement.
Initial Inspection
Every system in your home is inspected and assessed for age, refrigerant type, mechanical condition, and thermostat setup. Existing deficiencies are documented and excluded from coverage until repaired at standard rates.
Equipment Age Rules
Level 3 full coverage is available on equipment less than 12 to 15 years old. Equipment over 10 years old may require a 20 to 40 percent pricing increase depending on condition, refrigerant type, and parts availability.
Compressor Coverage Rules
Compressor coverage carries a $500 to $1,000 deductible per event. Replacement is limited to one compressor per unit per agreement term. Failures caused by excluded events (see next section) are not covered under any tier.
Full Exclusions List
Warranty coverage does not extend to failures caused by external events, misuse, or unauthorized work. These exclusions apply to every coverage tier. Repairs made necessary by any of the following remain the responsibility of the equipment owner and are quoted at standard rates.
Electrical Events
Damage caused by power surges, phase loss, brown outs, lightning strikes, or utility supply irregularities is excluded. Coverage assumes clean, stable electrical service to the equipment.
Environmental Damage
Flooding, fire, wind damage, hail, storm impacts, vandalism, and theft are excluded from all coverage tiers. These events are typically covered under property insurance rather than an equipment service agreement.
Improper Service or Contamination
Failures caused by refrigerant contamination, improper maintenance performed by another party, or unauthorized repairs after enrollment void coverage on the affected equipment. Only GENMECH HVAC service work is covered under the agreement.
DIY, Tenant, and Access Issues
DIY repairs, damage caused by tenants (for rental properties), pet damage to equipment or refrigerant lines, and after hours premium labor are excluded. Full equipment replacement (as opposed to component repair) and duct system rework are also outside coverage scope.
Which Home Systems Are Covered
Residential warranty coverage applies to the four most common HVAC system types in Midland area homes. Each enrolled system gets its own inspection and its own coverage tier. Mix and match tiers across systems if you have more than one.
Central Air Conditioning
Split system central AC with outdoor condenser and indoor air handler or furnace coil. Coverage includes capacitors, contactors, blower motors, and the compressor (Level 3). The most common covered system in Midland area homes.
Gas Furnaces
Natural gas and propane furnaces including ignitors, gas valves, flame sensors, blower motors, and control boards. Heat exchanger inspection is included at every PM visit. Cracked heat exchangers are documented and quoted separately (safety issue, not a coverage event).
Heat Pumps
Air source heat pumps including reversing valves, defrost boards, auxiliary heat strips, and outdoor unit components. Priced per ton same as central AC. Level 3 covers the compressor, the highest cost failure on a heat pump system.
Mini Split Systems
Ductless mini splits for casitas, add on rooms, garages, or whole home multi zone setups. Each indoor head plus the outdoor condenser counts as one system for warranty pricing. Common in Midland retrofits and outbuildings.
