We sweat the small stuff for you.

Rest easy. With our Shield Assurances, we take care of things other home warranty companies might not, like:

  • Breakdowns caused by normal wear-and-tear, no matter the age of a covered item
  • Unknown, pre-existing breakdowns
  • Items without maintenance records
  • Duplicates of the same item, like that extra AC unit
  • Removal of defective equipment
  • Refrigerant recapture, reclaim and disposal
  • Breakdowns caused by improper installations or repairs, insufficient maintenance, rust, corrosion and sediment and mismatched HVAC systems

See the plan agreement for coverage details, including service fees, limitations and exclusions. Coverage limits and charges for non-covered items may apply.

Thinking about coverage?

Sounds like a plan. Find the warranty that fits you best.

One of the many perks of being an American Home Shield member is having access to valuable savings on the home services and equipment you really need—like a new HVAC system. This is a great program to take advantage of if you have an aging HVAC system you’re tired of  constantly repairing, or if you are looking to save money on energy costs with a more efficient and reliable HVAC system. With our New HVAC Program, you could save thousands* off national retail pricing on name brand systems. Get started with a free, in-home quote where a vetted Pro will assess your current system and provide personalized recommendations on new equipment. Our program includes installation of the new system and removal of the old system, and third-party financing options are available. 

*Pricing and amount of savings will vary based on location and equipment availability. Not available in all areas. HVAC system upgrades are offered by Frontdoor Pro and performed by a Frontdoor Pro independent service contractor. 

We offer our discounted HVAC tune-ups twice a year, once in the spring to prepare your AC for the summer months and again in the fall to ensure your heating system is ready for the winter. The discounted rate for ShieldSilver and ShieldGold members is $100 per unit plus any applicable sales tax. ShieldPlatinum members receive one free tune-up per contract term. For AC systems, daytime outside air temperature must be 65 degrees Fahrenheit or above to perform a tune-up. AC systems are not eligible for a tune-up during the fall heating tune-up season. Heating systems are not eligible for a tune-up during the spring AC tune-up season. HVAC units must be safely accessible to the Pro.

 

HVAC tune-ups are offered by Frontdoor Pro and performed by a Frontdoor Pro independent service contractor.

Our standard home warranty contract term is 1 year and renews for additional 1-year terms unless canceled. You can place your first service request 30 days after you sign up for your plan. You will not be charged until your coverage begins at the 30-day mark.
