Quick answer
The Plumber Service TX lifetime workmanship warranty applies to qualifying new AC systems we install in Dallas–Fort Worth: if a failure is ever caused by our installation workmanship — brazing, wiring, drainage, mounting, commissioning — we repair it at no charge for as long as you own the system. It’s separate from and additional to the manufacturer’s equipment warranty, and full terms are provided in writing with every eligible quote.
The Warranty Gap Nobody Explains at Sale Time
Every new AC comes with a manufacturer’s parts warranty — typically ten years, registered. Here’s the gap: industry data consistently attributes a large share of early system failures not to the parts but to the installation — improper charge, poor brazing, inadequate airflow setup, sloppy condensate work. And installation defects are exactly what the manufacturer’s warranty excludes. When a poorly installed system fails in year four, the homeowner discovers they’re covered for the part and billed for everything else, by the same company that caused it.
A lifetime workmanship warranty closes that gap by putting the installer’s money where the risk actually lives. We can offer it for an unglamorous reason: our installation process — weighed charge, nitrogen-purged brazing, verified vacuum, commissioned airflow, inspected drainage — is designed so we essentially never pay on it. The warranty isn’t a bet against failure; it’s the receipt for a process that prevents it.
What’s Covered, What Isn’t — In Plain Language
- Covered — our labor, forever: any failure traced to our installation workmanship is repaired free, parts-of-repair and labor, for as long as you own the system.
- Covered alongside — the equipment: manufacturer parts warranty (typically 10 years, registered by us in your name) runs in parallel.
- Condition — qualifying systems: the warranty applies to eligible complete-system installations; your quote states eligibility explicitly before you buy.
- Condition — maintenance: like every warranty in this industry, it requires the system be maintained (our seasonal tune-ups satisfy this and are documented automatically).
- Not covered: equipment defects (that’s the manufacturer), damage from outside causes (storms, surges, pests), and neglect — stated plainly in the written terms rather than discovered later.
Questions to Ask Any Installer About Their ‘Warranty’
Whether you buy from us or not, make any bidder answer these in writing: Is the labor warranty separate from the manufacturer’s parts warranty, and how long does it run? What voids it? Does it transfer or end at home sale? Is maintenance required, by whom, and what does it cost? And the sharpest one — who pays labor when a warrantied part fails in year six? The answers separate real coverage from a brochure word. Ours are in the written terms attached to every eligible quote; email service@plumberservicetx.com and we’ll send the full document before you commit to anything.

AC Lifetime Warranty — Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly does the lifetime workmanship warranty cover?
Any failure caused by our installation labor — refrigerant line brazing, electrical connections, condensate drainage, mounting, charge and airflow commissioning — repaired at no charge for as long as you own the system. Equipment defects remain covered by the manufacturer’s parts warranty, which we register for you.
Which systems qualify for the lifetime warranty?
Qualifying complete-system installations — eligibility is stated explicitly on your written quote before purchase, never assumed. Email service@plumberservicetx.com and we’ll confirm whether the system you’re considering qualifies.
Is maintenance required to keep the warranty valid?
Yes — regular professional maintenance, which is standard across the industry’s warranties. Our seasonal tune-ups satisfy the requirement and we keep the documentation automatically, so compliance never depends on your filing cabinet.
Does the warranty transfer if I sell my home?
The lifetime workmanship warranty runs for as long as you own the system; transferability provisions are detailed in the written terms provided with your quote. Manufacturer equipment warranties carry their own transfer rules, which we’ll explain alongside.
How is this different from the manufacturer’s 10-year warranty?
The manufacturer covers defective parts — and excludes installation problems, which cause a large share of real-world failures. Our workmanship warranty covers precisely that excluded category: if our installation caused it, we fix it free, indefinitely. Together they close the gap that usually lands on the homeowner.
Who pays the labor when a manufacturer part fails in year 6?
That’s the question that exposes most ‘great warranties.’ With us: the manufacturer supplies the part under its warranty, and our written terms spell out labor treatment clearly before you buy — no year-six surprises. Ask any competing bidder the same question in writing.
Does the lifetime warranty cover my old existing AC?
No — it’s a workmanship warranty on systems we install, because it warrants our installation process. Repairs on existing systems carry our standard written workmanship warranty on the repair performed.
How do I make a warranty claim?
Email service@plumberservicetx.com with your name and installation address. Your system’s records, warranty status and maintenance history are already on file with us — no receipts to dig up — and a tech is dispatched to diagnose. If the cause is our workmanship, the repair is free, full stop.
