Repair of vinyl membrane - Plumbing LimitFor Plumbing Items:
For each item categorized as plumbing systems, (see the full list under "Plumbing Systems" above) coverage is limited to $3,000 per plumbing system.
All service costs up to $3,000 per plumbing system per malfunction will be covered. If in the course of that repair service the work will cost over $3,000, then you will be responsible to pay the remainder.
Other contract limits and exclusions may apply. For details on these and other additional contract terms, please refer to the sample contract. - Systems LimitFor Heating, Cooling and Electrical Items:
For each item categorized as systems, (see the full list under "Heating & Cooling" & "Electrical Systems" above) coverage is limited per system (coverage limits shown in the table).
All service costs up to the limit per system per malfunction will be covered. If in the course of that repair service the work will cost over the limit, then you will be responsible to pay the remainder.
Other limits may apply in the case of geothermal, glycol or steam heat sourced AC or Heat units, and in the case of access through concrete. For details on these and other additional contract terms, please refer to our sample contract. - Appliances LimitFor Kitchen and Laundry Items:
For each item categorized as an appliance, (see the full list under "Kitchen Appliances" & "Laundry Appliances" above), coverage is limited per appliance (coverage limits shown in the table). Which means if your oven needs a repair that costs $1,000, you still have the full coverage limit if your refrigerator breaks too, as coverage is per appliance.
All service costs up to the limit per appliance per malfunction will be covered. If in the course of that repair service the work will cost over the coverage limit, then you will be responsible to pay the remainder.
Other contract limits and exclusions may apply. For details on these and other additional contract terms, please refer to the sample contract.
