Protect customer equipment and start to generate additional income from sales

An ESA makes the "perfect marketing tool" because you can:

Lock in your customer for up to 10 years

Do you have 10-year clients on your roster? If not, make it part of your business plan to be the contractor with the most long-term clients bringing you back year after year.

Guaranteed service revenues throughout the life of the policy period

Yes, you read that correctly. Including an annual maintenance contract with each sale is one way to create a steady stream of profitable income to your business, even in those up and down times.

Extended Service Agreements can be cheaper than spending your money on advertising

How much money are you currently spending on advertising? Can you calculate ROI? An extended service agreement embedded in your installation price can be cheaper than advertising, with a greatly improved ROI!

Boost your reputation and word-of-mouth marketing

When you’re in your customer’s home servicing your ESA, you’re building trust, confidence and approval each and every time. This helps you build credibility and adds to your reputation in the community. All of this goodwill equals a boost to your bottom line through word-of-mouth referrals.

Surveys show that 65% of homeowners will buy an ESA if asked

When an individual is offered an ESA in a major home improvement store at the time of sale, their “yes, I want an extended warranty” answer is proven 65% of the time. You too can benefit from the strong market value of an ESA by offering one on every residential and commercial HVACR and plumbing proposal.

The Value of a Warranty

The cost of an extended warranty when compared against the installed cost of an HVAC system provides an unparalleled value proposition. Furthermore, by adding an ESA to your product, you enhance the product features without re-engineering it.

Reduce Customer Complaints & Discounted Out-of-Warranty Repairs

Although parts are covered for 10 years on most residential equipment, labor is not. Unfortunately, the consumer doesn't hear that. Labor for a compressor change-out is about $500. The average HVAC service ticket for an in-warranty compressor change-out is approximately $200 due to “negotiation.” In comparison, the average compressor change-out reimbursement is $550 from a Trinity ESA claim.
