HVAC warranty coverage sits on two independent tracks that most homeowners don’t realize are separate: the labor warranty from the contractor who installed the equipment, and the parts warranty from the equipment manufacturer. Both matter. Both have different rules. Both fail differently when a claim shows up two years after the install. This page documents exactly what Bluffdale Heating and Air Conditioning covers on labor, what Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Rheem, Bryant, Goodman, American Standard, Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, and Bosch cover on parts, how registration works, what voids coverage, and how to file a claim when something fails inside the warranty window.
Every new residential furnace, AC condenser, heat pump, boiler, air handler, and duct installation completed by our crew carries two years labor warranty from the commissioning date. Labor warranty covers workmanship defects: loose electrical connections, improper refrigerant charge (verified by superheat/subcooling deviation from manufacturer target), incorrect commissioning setpoints, condensate drain slope errors that cause backup, gas piping leaks at joints we brazed or threaded, and duct connection failures on rebuilds we performed.
Labor warranty does not cover: equipment failures caused by manufacturer defect (covered separately under manufacturer parts warranty), damage from lack of scheduled maintenance, homeowner modifications to the installed system, damage from PCAPS-season particulate loading on systems where MERV 13 minimum filtration wasn’t maintained, humidifier or evaporator coil scaling failures from Jordan Aquifer hardness on installs not fed by a dedicated RO or softener loop we specified, or acts of God (lightning strikes, flood, structural damage).
Individual component repairs carry a 90-day workmanship warranty on the specific component we serviced and the immediately adjacent connections. If the same pressure switch we replaced fails within 90 days, we return at no charge for parts and labor. If a hot surface igniter cracks 45 days after we installed it, same treatment. The 90-day warranty does not extend to unrelated components that fail during the same window — if the inducer motor fails 30 days after we replaced the pressure switch, that’s a separate diagnostic and a separate quote.
Commercial rooftop unit installs (Carrier 48HC and similar) along Porter Rockwell Boulevard, in the Riverton border retail plazas, and near Camp Williams carry one year labor warranty from commissioning date. Commercial service contracts extend the effective coverage through quarterly maintenance visits documented with combustion analyzer readings, belt tension checks, and coil pressure-wash records.
Extended labor warranties up to 10 years are available at the time of install, itemized on the written estimate for a fee. Extended coverage is underwritten through the equipment manufacturer’s extended service program — available on Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Rheem, and Bryant premium residential systems. Extended warranty terms and specific exclusions are printed on the coverage certificate delivered at commissioning. Extended warranties are non-refundable but are transferable to the next homeowner on qualifying resales (see Warranty Transfer at Home Sale below).
Parts warranty comes from the manufacturer, not from us. We handle registration and file claims on your behalf, but the underlying coverage is between you and Carrier, Trane, Lennox, or whichever brand you installed. Standard parts warranty ranges from 5 to 12 years on major components depending on brand, model tier, and registration status.
Standard warranty (unregistered): 5 years parts on covered components. Registered warranty: 10 years parts on most components, lifetime on the heat exchanger for select Carrier Infinity and Bryant Evolution premium furnaces. Compressors on premium heat pump systems carry a 10-year registered warranty; select Infinity Series lines extend to 12 years. Registration must file within 90 days of install to activate the full extended coverage.
Standard warranty (unregistered): 5 years parts. Registered warranty: 10 years parts on functional components (compressors, coils, motors) and 20 years or lifetime on heat exchangers for select premium XV and XL series furnaces. Registration must file within 60 days of install through the Trane dealer portal.
Standard warranty (unregistered): 5 years parts. Registered warranty: 10 years parts on functional components and lifetime heat exchanger on select Signature Collection and Elite Series premium furnaces (including SL280V, EL296V, and SLP99V). Compressors on premium Lennox heat pump systems carry 10-year registered warranty. Registration must file within 60 days of install.
Standard warranty (unregistered): 5 years parts. Registered warranty: 10 years parts on functional components and lifetime heat exchanger on Prestige Series and select Classic Plus premium furnaces. Registration must file within 60 days of install.
Goodman offers a lifetime unit replacement warranty on select premium furnace models if the primary heat exchanger fails during the life of the original registered homeowner — a distinct advantage on the value tier. Standard parts warranty on other components is 10 years registered. Amana offers similar lifetime unit replacement on select premium furnaces.
Variable-capacity cold-climate heat pump systems (Mitsubishi Hyper-Heat, Daikin Aurora, Bosch IDS Premium) carry 10-year registered parts warranty on compressors and 5–7 years on other components. Registration must file with the manufacturer through the authorized dealer portal within 60 days of install. Mitsubishi Electric specifically requires photographic documentation of the outdoor unit installation and mini-split pad clearance as part of registration — we file this documentation at commissioning.
Manufacturer warranty registration is the single most important post-install step for maximizing your coverage. Registration doubles the standard warranty on every major brand (5 years unregistered becomes 10 years registered on Carrier, Trane, Lennox, and Rheem). We file registration through the dealer portal for each manufacturer within the required window (60 days for most brands, 90 days for Carrier and Bryant) as part of the commissioning process. Rachel Kimball in the office handles the filing and confirms with the manufacturer that registration completed successfully. You receive a confirmation email from the manufacturer within 2 weeks of install completion.
If you purchased the equipment from another contractor and want to verify registration status on an existing system, call the office at (801) 610-6528 with your equipment serial numbers and we’ll check with the manufacturer at no charge.
Manufacturer warranty on residential HVAC systems can be voided or limited by:
Manufacturer parts warranties on registered systems are typically transferable to a new homeowner on resale — but transfer procedures vary by brand and often require action within a limited window (60–90 days from close). Extended labor warranties may or may not transfer depending on the specific coverage certificate. If you’re preparing to sell a home with equipment we installed:
Warranty registration verification, claim filing, and warranty transfer paperwork all route through the office at 14659 S 855 W. If you’re a homeowner with equipment we installed and want to check registration status, request coverage documentation for a resale disclosure, or file a claim on a suspected component failure, call the main line during business hours or email the office.
