The claim was filed online and HSA cannot determine coverage until the licensed technician reports the diagnosis of the failure to HSA The contract supports the technicians time out to the home and the $deductible stands

HSA was not given the opportunity to have a preferred vendor come out to the home as the repair was already completed when the homeowner called HSA HSA is open hours a day, seven days a week for homeowners to contact in the event there is an emergency failure HSA would adjust the pricing to what the preferred HSA vendor would charge for that repair

Revdex.com: I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted] , and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.After further discussions with various contractors, an acceptable resolution of this complaint would be for HSA to renew our current home warranty at their expense This will ensure that as we work through the current problems, they are agreeing to be a continued partner should other failures result due to the previous aforementioned A/C vendor-contractor mentioned in my original complaint If HSA will extend our current home warranty at their expense for year, we would take such an offer into consideration as a possible a agreeable resolution [To assist us in bringing this matter to a close, we would like to know your view on the matter.] Regards, [redacted]

HSA has had another supervisor review this clam Although the failure was present before the homeowner took possession of the property, the true failure was the safety switches had been disabled causing the unit to run improperly per manufacturers specifications This falls into the category of improper installation/fault workmanship per section F, number under the contract, which is not coverable The homeowner was asked to send in the home inspection for review for potential coverage and the homeowner declined The homeowner stated there was a comment on the home inspection by the inspector that the HVAC system needed to be inspected by a licensed HVAC technician and the homeowner indicated that he did not follow through with this recommendation Therefore, HSA maintains the denial on the furnace claim

HSA apologizes for the hold times during our peak times HSA will as a service gesture refund back the customer their $deductible HSA dis approve the claim for the replacement of the furnace at HSA affiliated rates and at the cost of the equipment that HSA would provide for an amount of $ This is for parts and standard laboer only per the terms and conditons of the contract HSA would need a copy of a paid receipt to process agains the claim for reimbursement Thank you
