When you invest in a new HVAC system or replacement parts, the last thing you want is to face expensive repair costs later because the warranty was never registered. Many homeowners assume their warranty is automatic, but most manufacturers require product registration within a specific time frame. Missing that window can mean losing hundreds or even thousands of dollars in future coverage.

At Blue Collar Trades, we believe part of serving our community is helping homeowners protect their investment. Registering your equipment ensures you receive the full benefits available — and prevents surprise repair costs that could have been avoided.
A parts warranty covers the cost of specific components in your heating and cooling system if they fail due to manufacturing issues or normal usage. This can apply to items such as compressors, motors, coils, control boards, and more.

Without a valid warranty, replacing even a single part can create a significant expense. With a registered warranty, homeowners may pay little to nothing for the replacement.
Unregistered equipment often defaults to a minimal warranty period. Registering unlocks the full extended warranty coverage. If a major part fails, a registered warranty can save hundreds or thousands in repair costs.

If the system or part is not registered within the required window (often 30–90 days), the manufacturer may not provide full warranty support.
