faster than most areas. I recommend Liberty Home Guard and Elite Home Warranty for the best coverage in these areas. <\/li>\n<li>I\u2019ll be frank: You don\u2019t really need a home warranty if you have a home with all new appliances and systems covered under a manufacturer\u2019s warranty. Doubling up won\u2019t give you any added benefit, and you\u2019ll be out of unnecessary money. <\/li>\n<li>Always read through your home warranty policy thoroughly, especially for exclusions and coverage limits. Most dissatisfied home warranty customers don\u2019t fully understand their policy, leading to a nasty shock when the company doesn\u2019t pay out. <\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-my-expert-recommendation\">My Expert Recommendation<\/h2>\n<p>Liberty Home Guard is my top choice for Alaskan homeowners because of their limited roof leak coverage, excellent customization options such as pest control and gutter cleaning, and fair prices. I especially like that you can up your coverage with some of their add-ons if you have premium appliances. This advantage gives you peace of mind that you won\u2019t hit a coverage cap for a more expensive item like a KitchenAid or Chambers appliance.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>My other choice is Elite Home Warranty. I recommend going with this provider if your home has luxury appliances or you want the most peace of mind. Their coverage is up to $6,000 for appliances and $10,000 for home systems (about <strong>two to three time<\/strong>s more than most providers!).\u00a0<\/p>\n<section id=\"th-tips-block_d224dfe5c955ae6e99a45af2e758fd22\" class=\"th-block th-tips\" style=\"color: ; background-color: ;\">\n<div class=\"thTipsContainer\">\n<p>Today\u2019s Homeowner Tips<\/p>\n<p>            Liberty Home Guard is my top choice for Alaskan homeowners because of their limited roof leak coverage, excellent customization options such as pest control and gutter cleaning, and fair prices.         <\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Alaska Home Warranty Companies I Didn\u2019t Include<\/h3>\n<p>I didn\u2019t include Home Warranty of America on this list because of their poor 1.04 out of 5-star rating on the BBB, lack of a BBB accreditation, and a past class action lawsuit against them that alleged they violated consumers\u2019 rights and the law.

Plus, if you have pro-series appliances, like American Range, Chambers, and KitchenAid, you can opt for an add-on that protects these luxury appliances, so you don\u2019t need to worry about hitting a coverage cap. Other providers don\u2019t cover items like these or offer sufficient coverage if you need these items replaced, so this is a significant bonus for Alaskan homeowners with premium appliances.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-212c2d09 gb-tabs__item\">\n<p>While they have incredible customization options, Liberty doesn\u2019t have high coverage limits. Most providers offer up to $3,000 in coverage. But\u00a0 Liberty maxes out at only $2,000 \u2014 not nearly enough to cover large home systems like your HVAC system (which <a href=\"https:\/\/todayshomeowner.com\/hvac\/cost\/hvac-installation-cost\/#:~:text=Then%20connect%20with%20local%20experts%20to%20get%20the%20held%20you%20need.&amp;text=In%20general%2C%20you%20can%20expect,removal%20of%20your%20old%20unit.&amp;text=In%20general%2C%20you%20can%20expect%20to%20pay%20between%20%244%2C000%20and,old%20furnace%20removal%2C%20and%20labor.\">costs over $5,540<\/a> to replace) or luxury appliances. If you need more extensive coverage and Liberty\u2019s add-ons for premium appliances won\u2019t do, check out a provider like Elite Home Warranty, which has coverage of up to $10,000 on home systems and up to $6,000 for appliances.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-8a7035e5 gb-accordion\" data-accordion-multiple-open=\"\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-d611f17e gb-accordion__item\" data-transition=\"slide\">\n<p><button class=\"gb-button gb-button-da53a45d gb-accordion__toggle\"><span class=\"gb-button-text\"><strong><\/p>\n<h3>Bottom Line: 9.3\/10<\/h3>\n<p><\/strong><\/span><span class=\"gb-icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 448 512\" width=\"1em\" height=\"1em\" ariahidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" class=\"gb-accordion__icon\"><path d=\"M207.029 381.476L12.686 187.132c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941l22.667-22.667c9.357-9.357 24.522-9.375 33.901-.04L224 284.505l154.745-154.021c9.379-9.335 24.544-9.317 33.901.04l22.667 22.667c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941L240.971 381.476c-9.373 9.372-24.569 9.372-33.942 0z\" fill=\"currentColor\"\/><\/svg><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 448 512\" width=\"1em\" height=\"1em\" ariahidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" class=\"gb-accordion__icon-open\"><path d=\"M240.971 130.524l194.343 194.343c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941l-22.667 22.667c-9.357 9.357-24.522 9.375-33.901.04L224 227.495 69.255 381.516c-9.379 9.335-24.544 9.317-33.901-.04l-22.667-22.667c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941L207.03 130.525c9.372-9.373 24.568-9.373 33.941-.001z\" fill=\"currentColor\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><\/p>\n<div class=\"gb-accordion__content\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-8bcf5a13\">\n<p>With top-notch customer service ratings of 4.7 stars from Trustpilot and a great customer reputation, Liberty Home Guard is easily one of my top picks for a home warranty provider. Their extensive add-on options allow you to customize your plan far more than providers like Select Home Warranty, which has fewer than 10 add-on options, can do. These options provide you with so much flexibility, so you can choose more coverage for the things in your home that really need it without overpaying. On top of this, Liberty\u2019s add-ons are unheard of in the industry, with offerings like pest control, window washing, and carpet cleaning \u2014 all options that can help you keep your home cozy and clean after a heavy Alaskan snowfall.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>One of Liberty\u2019s biggest drawbacks is that, according to their sample contract, they will only cover up to \u201cthe cover item\u2019s book value.\u201d Essentially, Liberty will only reimburse you for what the appliance or system is worth after depreciation. While this isn\u2019t unheard of, you\u2019ll want to know this is going into one of their policies so you\u2019re not left surprised by a lower-than-expected reimbursement.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\" http:=\"\" alt=\"\" class=\"lazyload\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/lh7-us.googleusercontent.com\/ceD6rUWpFoMt9boJXZMzJauvPT7IVpi1VhrqDb-3LfXvKGhQ8rB65fukfNaF5MhrQDYubfAoL1XSfb0KoVI8wWPjXMDN9goLsR1YAJFfC3MFNVX7kH13ZEcsReYjtfVGbGHwbxGSLfNZD2BskCjSL40\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/lh7-us.googleusercontent.com\/ceD6rUWpFoMt9boJXZMzJauvPT7IVpi1VhrqDb-3LfXvKGhQ8rB65fukfNaF5MhrQDYubfAoL1XSfb0KoVI8wWPjXMDN9goLsR1YAJFfC3MFNVX7kH13ZEcsReYjtfVGbGHwbxGSLfNZD2BskCjSL40\" class=\"lazyload\" alt=\"\"\/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<p>Despite Liberty\u2019s average-at-best coverage caps, their add-ons can make up for this on some appliances if you\u2019re looking for more coverage, and I\u2019d still recommend them to most homeowners.

warranty<\/a> varies significantly by state, but after collecting many quotes, I found that it averages around $54 per month. Fortunately, Liberty Home Guard offers very competitive pricing, with their most budget-friendly plan, which is an appliance plan starting at $49.99 per month. Where the company falls short in affordability is their expensive add-ons, which often cost $20 or more per month \u2014 a significant increase in the overall cost of your monthly premium. However, you are receiving great value for the add-ons and unique options you won\u2019t find with other providers, such as coverage for TV mounting, in-fridge ice makers, reverse osmosis water filter systems, and electronics protections.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>My pro tip<\/strong> for the best deal is to linger on Liberty\u2019s website for a few minutes, then visit another tab.

I have to say Liberty is one of the best. Not only is the company\u2019s website user-friendly, but I love the customizable mix-and-match quote process, as it allows you to explore different types of coverage easily and see your rate after selecting different add-ons. This process allows you to easily weigh your options and priorities and assess what will fit best with your budget, especially if you want to sign up for common Alaskan add-ons like limited roof coverage (essential in areas with lots of snow) or well pump coverage. The biggest drawback to Liberty\u2019s customer experience is their many points of contact after a quote, which our team found a bit overwhelming.

Overall, Choice checks all these boxes if your priorities are <strong>high claim acceptance, fast turnarounds, and a competitive price point.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-74f1972a gb-accordion__item\" data-transition=\"slide\">\n<p><button class=\"gb-button gb-button-cd008886 gb-accordion__toggle\"><span class=\"gb-button-text\"><strong><\/p>\n<h3>Plans and Coverage: 8.3\/10<\/h3>\n<p><\/strong><\/span><span class=\"gb-icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 448 512\" width=\"1em\" height=\"1em\" ariahidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" class=\"gb-accordion__icon\"><path d=\"M207.029 381.476L12.686 187.132c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941l22.667-22.667c9.357-9.357 24.522-9.375 33.901-.04L224 284.505l154.745-154.021c9.379-9.335 24.544-9.317 33.901.04l22.667 22.667c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941L240.971 381.476c-9.373 9.372-24.569 9.372-33.942 0z\" fill=\"currentColor\"\/><\/svg><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 448 512\" width=\"1em\" height=\"1em\" ariahidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" class=\"gb-accordion__icon-open\"><path d=\"M240.971 130.524l194.343 194.343c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941l-22.667 22.667c-9.357 9.357-24.522 9.375-33.901.04L224 227.495 69.255 381.516c-9.379 9.335-24.544 9.317-33.901-.04l-22.667-22.667c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941L207.03 130.525c9.372-9.373 24.568-9.373 33.941-.001z\" fill=\"currentColor\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><\/p>\n<div class=\"gb-accordion__content\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-b7a5e534\">\n<p>Choice Home Warranty has fewer plans than most, and, frankly, I\u2019d skip their Basic Plan altogether because it doesn\u2019t cover common appliances like your refrigerator, air conditioner, dryer, or washer.

I\u2019ve seen many discounts for $150 off plus two months free and a discount for paying annually. These deals can bring your premium down to as little as $39 a month, which is excellent, especially when looking at their Gold Care plan, which has <strong>up to $3,000 in HVAC coverage. <\/strong>While not enough to <a href=\"https:\/\/todayshomeowner.com\/hvac\/reviews\/best-home-warranty-for-hvac\/\">cover an HVAC system<\/a> replacement, this is enough to cover most repairs and give you greater peace of mind.

For example, if you file a claim for a broken down dishwasher, but the technician discovers a preexisting condition that was in effect before your policy with Select was active, you would be responsible for the repair cost as you weren\u2019t covered when the condition developed. While other providers have this same exclusion, some, like Liberty Home Guard, offer plans or add-ons that protect you if you don\u2019t know about an existing issue with your home system or appliance before signing up.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Another con was some of Select\u2019s strange exclusions that I found in a sample contract on their website. For example, the following plan includes coverage for the dishwasher but excludes racks and rollers, which many homeowners probably consider part of the appliance. This can lead to claim denials, which leaves you out of the money.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\" http:=\"\" alt=\"\" class=\"lazyload\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/lh7-us.googleusercontent.com\/ASB8_agWPpoIDWgG-4mlhWiv7pHa-Q2muK-5CoRyqKKozYc8hxtAURghUEHAzKh6b-YlGgouBBjetjCgA0T9ohEpFOQ5BJPDqpwKpwBOSjcSzzchm29C6tWVnMoDMJQfzvKCszQqMK-inYqsikypmq4\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/lh7-us.googleusercontent.com\/ASB8_agWPpoIDWgG-4mlhWiv7pHa-Q2muK-5CoRyqKKozYc8hxtAURghUEHAzKh6b-YlGgouBBjetjCgA0T9ohEpFOQ5BJPDqpwKpwBOSjcSzzchm29C6tWVnMoDMJQfzvKCszQqMK-inYqsikypmq4\" class=\"lazyload\" alt=\"\"\/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-bccb9526 gb-accordion\" data-accordion-multiple-open=\"\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-2a463211 gb-accordion__item\" data-transition=\"slide\">\n<p><button class=\"gb-button gb-button-982125dc gb-accordion__toggle\"><span class=\"gb-button-text\"><strong><\/p>\n<h3>Bottom Line: 8.4\/10<\/h3>\n<p><\/strong><\/span><span class=\"gb-icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 448 512\" width=\"1em\" height=\"1em\" ariahidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" class=\"gb-accordion__icon\"><path d=\"M207.029 381.476L12.686 187.132c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941l22.667-22.667c9.357-9.357 24.522-9.375 33.901-.04L224 284.505l154.745-154.021c9.379-9.335 24.544-9.317 33.901.04l22.667 22.667c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941L240.971 381.476c-9.373 9.372-24.569 9.372-33.942 0z\" fill=\"currentColor\"\/><\/svg><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 448 512\" width=\"1em\" height=\"1em\" ariahidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" class=\"gb-accordion__icon-open\"><path d=\"M240.971 130.524l194.343 194.343c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941l-22.667 22.667c-9.357 9.357-24.522 9.375-33.901.04L224 227.495 69.255 381.516c-9.379 9.335-24.544 9.317-33.901-.04l-22.667-22.667c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941L207.03 130.525c9.372-9.373 24.568-9.373 33.941-.001z\" fill=\"currentColor\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><\/p>\n<div class=\"gb-accordion__content\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-fc5bc53a\">\n<p>Founded in 2012, Select Home Warranty packs a punch with their high-value plans at a <a href=\"https:\/\/todayshomeowner.com\/home-finances\/reviews\/cheapest-home-warranty\/\">more affordable price point<\/a>, especially when paired with their ample discounts, such as a two-month free offering on their website and a discount for paying an annual premium.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>With that said, Select has a few cons, such as some customer reviews claiming they were charged multiple service fees for one visit. These customers had multiple appliances examined during the same home visit, but Select charged a service fee for each appliance. I haven\u2019t seen this complaint with other providers, so this stood out as an unusual (and not-so-great) feature that feels like nickeling and diming to me. They also have odd exclusions in their sample contract, so take a close look at the policy before signing so you\u2019re fully aware of any exclusions. For example, your plan may cover the oven, range, and stovetop but exclude the range hood. As homeowners, we think of these as all part of the same appliance, so keep your eyes peeled when shopping for plans. Lastly, Select doesn\u2019t cover preexisting conditions. While this isn\u2019t unheard of in the industry, it\u2019s a letdown when providers like Liberty Home Guard cover these conditions, which offer a lot of peace of mind that your provider won\u2019t deny a claim due to a condition you didn\u2019t know your appliance had.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>However, if you\u2019re on a budget, Select is hard to beat with their many discounts, affordable pricing, and low-cost service fee options (anywhere from $25 to $35 less than most providers).\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<noscript><\/p>\n<div class=\"jlvid_container\"><iframe title=\"Select Home Warranty Testimonials\" width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/dnsi4jgp48c?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p><\/noscript>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-aa543c6a gb-accordion__item\" data-transition=\"slide\">\n<p><button class=\"gb-button gb-button-d750dfe5 gb-accordion__toggle\"><span class=\"gb-button-text\"><strong><\/p>\n<h3>Plans and Coverage: 8.3\/10<\/h3>\n<p><\/strong><\/span><span class=\"gb-icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 448 512\" width=\"1em\" height=\"1em\" ariahidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" class=\"gb-accordion__icon\"><path d=\"M207.029 381.476L12.686 187.132c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941l22.667-22.667c9.357-9.357 24.522-9.375 33.901-.04L224 284.505l154.745-154.021c9.379-9.335 24.544-9.317 33.901.04l22.667 22.667c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941L240.971 381.476c-9.373 9.372-24.569 9.372-33.942 0z\" fill=\"currentColor\"\/><\/svg><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 448 512\" width=\"1em\" height=\"1em\" ariahidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" class=\"gb-accordion__icon-open\"><path d=\"M240.971 130.524l194.343 194.343c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941l-22.667 22.667c-9.357 9.357-24.522 9.375-33.901.04L224 227.495 69.255 381.516c-9.379 9.335-24.544 9.317-33.901-.04l-22.667-22.667c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941L207.03 130.525c9.372-9.373 24.568-9.373 33.941-.001z\" fill=\"currentColor\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><\/p>\n<div class=\"gb-accordion__content\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-4db15aea\">\n<p>Select ranks well amongst the competition for their flexible and affordable plan options.

This feature is a significant benefit over providers like Choice Home Warranty, which makes you hunt down the pricing for add-ons.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-add4cbc8 gb-accordion__item\" data-transition=\"slide\">\n<p><button class=\"gb-button gb-button-add30fc3 gb-accordion__toggle\"><span class=\"gb-button-text\"><strong><\/p>\n<h3>Company Reputation: 8.0\/10<\/h3>\n<p><\/strong><\/span><span class=\"gb-icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 448 512\" width=\"1em\" height=\"1em\" ariahidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" class=\"gb-accordion__icon\"><path d=\"M207.029 381.476L12.686 187.132c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941l22.667-22.667c9.357-9.357 24.522-9.375 33.901-.04L224 284.505l154.745-154.021c9.379-9.335 24.544-9.317 33.901.04l22.667 22.667c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941L240.971 381.476c-9.373 9.372-24.569 9.372-33.942 0z\" fill=\"currentColor\"\/><\/svg><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 448 512\" width=\"1em\" height=\"1em\" ariahidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" class=\"gb-accordion__icon-open\"><path d=\"M240.971 130.524l194.343 194.343c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941l-22.667 22.667c-9.357 9.357-24.522 9.375-33.901.04L224 227.495 69.255 381.516c-9.379 9.335-24.544 9.317-33.901-.04l-22.667-22.667c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941L207.03 130.525c9.372-9.373 24.568-9.373 33.941-.001z\" fill=\"currentColor\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><\/p>\n<div class=\"gb-accordion__content\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-ce02ec60\">\n<p>With nearly a four-star average on Trustpilot and a solid B rating from the Better Business Bureau, Select Home Warranty has primarily positive reviews.

One, they have an outstanding A+ rating and accreditation from the Better Business Bureau and close to five-star ratings on other third-party websites. These ratings are MUCH higher than most home warranty providers, such as AFC Home Club, which had a poor 1.9-star rating with Yelp at the time of writing. The second reason is their incredible, practically unheard-of coverage caps, which are <strong>up to $6,000 for appliances and $10,000 for home systems<\/strong> \u2014 this is two to three times what most home warranty providers offer and ensures you won\u2019t be left paying for part of your dishwasher\u2019s replacement.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-f1aca5f0 gb-tabs__item\">\n<p>Elite Home Warranty doesn\u2019t include emergency services in their plans.

You can opt for this level of coverage through their add-ons, which are reasonably priced, with most costing around $20 per month. On top of their high coverage levels, Elite has an excellent customer service record with an accreditation from the BBB and high star ratings from multiple third-party review websites. These pros give me a lot of faith in their process and how this provider treats clients.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Besides their incredible payout caps, one of Elite\u2019s biggest pros for me is that they never require a maintenance record. Some providers like AFC Home Club require a maintenance record from a licensed technician that shows the technician serviced your HVAC system or appliance and you kept up with any suggested repairs. This requires you to keep a tight check-up schedule, pay more attention to routine maintenance, and always opt for repairs suggested by the service technician, even if it\u2019s something cosmetic, or you risk some providers denying coverage later. As someone who wouldn\u2019t want to endure freezing Alaska temperatures with a broken HVAC system while I\u2019m trying to gather maintenance records for my home warranty provider, Elite\u2019s no maintenance record policy is a blessing.<\/p>\n<p>The biggest downside to Elite is their lack of commercial-grade appliance coverage and emergency services (unless you pay an extra fee). However, these are downsides I can personally live with.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<noscript><\/p>\n<div class=\"jlvid_container\"><iframe title=\"Why Elite Home Warranty?

Coverage caps determine how much a provider will pay for a single appliance or system, like your dishwasher or plumbing, so you want to verify that your policy has a high enough cap that comfortably covers repairs and replacements. Most providers only have $2,000 to $3,000 coverage caps at best. However, Elite offers up to $6,000 in appliance and $10,000 in home system coverage, making them a truly outstanding provider in terms of the coverage you receive, especially if you have luxury or high-end appliances that cost more to fix.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The following prices don\u2019t reflect the offered discounts.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\">\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><em>Plan<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>Monthly Cost<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>Service Fee<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>Available Discounts<\/em><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><em>Elite Appliance<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>$44.99<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>$100<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>$150 sign-up, first month free, 30-day free trial (phone or email)<\/em><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><em>Elite Systems<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>$52.99<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>$100<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>$150 sign-up, first month free, 30-day free trial (phone or email)<\/em><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><em>Elite Complete<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>$59.99<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>$100<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>$150 sign-up, first month free, 30-day free trial (phone or email)<\/em><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n<p><em>Editor\u2019s Note: The cost data mentioned in this article was sourced for a single-family, two-bedroom home under 5,000 square feet in Anchorage.

Compare this to Elite\u2019s coverage of up to $6,000 on appliances and $10,000 on home systems when you select specific plans and add-ons, and you\u2019ll feel much more confident in Elite\u2019s ability to completely cover the replacement cost of your premium fridge or stove.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Overall, Elite has excellent add-on options, with only Liberty Home Guard rivaling their selection.\u00a0<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Attic exhaust fan: $69.99\/year<\/li>\n<li>Central vacuum: $49.00\/year<\/li>\n<li>Effluent pump: $99.99\/year<\/li>\n<li>Ejector pump: $99.99\/year<\/li>\n<li>Freestanding freezer: $59.99\/year<\/li>\n<li>Freestanding ice maker: $59.99\/year<\/li>\n<li>Freestanding spa equipment: $119.99\/year<\/li>\n<li>Generator: $99.99\/year<\/li>\n<li>Geothermal heating and cooling system: $299.99\/year<\/li>\n<li>Grinder pump: $99.99\/year<\/li>\n<li>Guest house: $299.99\/year<\/li>\n<li>HVAC annual maintenance: $299.99\/year<\/li>\n<li>Jetted\/hot tub: $99.99\/year<\/li>\n<li>Lawn sprinkler system: $99.99\/year<\/li>\n<li>Lift pump: $99.99\/year<\/li>\n<li>Limited roof leak repair: $99.99\/year<\/li>\n<li>Pool &amp; spa equipment: $199.99\/year<\/li>\n<li>Pool equipment: $149.99\/year<\/li>\n<li>Premium appliances: $249.99\/year<\/li>\n<li>Premium benefits: $199.99\/year<\/li>\n<li>Premium systems: $299.99\/year<\/li>\n<li>Premium systems Plus: $499.99\/year<\/li>\n<li>Septic system: $129.99\/year<\/li>\n<li>Service lines: $349.99\/year<\/li>\n<li>Sump pump: $99.99\/year<\/li>\n<li>Swamp cooler: $149.99\/year<\/li>\n<li>Water filtration System: $99.99\/year<\/li>\n<li>Water softener: $99.99\/year<\/li>\n<li>Well pump: $99.99\/year<\/li>\n<li>Wine cooler: $69.99\/year<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Exclusions<\/h5>\n<p>Elite Home Warranty has standard exclusions for the industry, except commercial-grade appliances, which may be a dealbreaker for some homeowners:\u00a0<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Natural disaster-related damages<\/li>\n<li>Acts of God<\/li>\n<li>Commercial-grade appliances\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>Units in a rental property<\/li>\n<li>Cosmetic damage<\/li>\n<li>A lack of maintenance<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>Editor\u2019s Note: While this article highlights certain exclusions, it is imperative for readers to review their contracts as the mentioned exclusions are not exhaustive, and additional exclusions may apply.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-dba9b377 gb-accordion__item\" data-transition=\"slide\">\n<p><button class=\"gb-button gb-button-fbb0cf26 gb-accordion__toggle\"><span class=\"gb-button-text\"><strong><\/p>\n<h3>Affordability: 8.7\/10<\/h3>\n<p><\/strong><\/span><span class=\"gb-icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 448 512\" width=\"1em\" height=\"1em\" ariahidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" class=\"gb-accordion__icon\"><path d=\"M207.029 381.476L12.686 187.132c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941l22.667-22.667c9.357-9.357 24.522-9.375 33.901-.04L224 284.505l154.745-154.021c9.379-9.335 24.544-9.317 33.901.04l22.667 22.667c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941L240.971 381.476c-9.373 9.372-24.569 9.372-33.942 0z\" fill=\"currentColor\"\/><\/svg><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 448 512\" width=\"1em\" height=\"1em\" ariahidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" class=\"gb-accordion__icon-open\"><path d=\"M240.971 130.524l194.343 194.343c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941l-22.667 22.667c-9.357 9.357-24.522 9.375-33.901.04L224 227.495 69.255 381.516c-9.379 9.335-24.544 9.317-33.901-.04l-22.667-22.667c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941L207.03 130.525c9.372-9.373 24.568-9.373 33.941-.001z\" fill=\"currentColor\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><\/p>\n<div class=\"gb-accordion__content\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-ea2257a6\">\n<p>Elite Home Warranty is less affordable than some providers, with their most comprehensive coverage starting at $59.99 per month with no add-ons. This rate is $6 more per month than Alaska\u2019s average home warranty premium. With that said, Elite offers superior coverage of up to $6,000 in appliance coverage and up to $10,000 on home systems like your HVAC system \u2014 a critical system for Alaskan homeowners trying to keep their homes habitable during the winter months. Most home warranty policies only offer $2,000 to $3,000 in coverage at most, so this is far greater coverage that gives me peace of mind, so I find the slightly higher price very reasonable. Their add-ons are cost-effective overall (especially for that level of coverage) at around $15 and $20 per month.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-d2c24bd4 gb-accordion__item\" data-transition=\"slide\">\n<p><button class=\"gb-button gb-button-2836b661 gb-accordion__toggle\"><span class=\"gb-button-text\"><strong><\/p>\n<h3>Customer Experience: 7.6\/10<\/h3>\n<p><\/strong><\/span><span class=\"gb-icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 448 512\" width=\"1em\" height=\"1em\" ariahidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" class=\"gb-accordion__icon\"><path d=\"M207.029 381.476L12.686 187.132c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941l22.667-22.667c9.357-9.357 24.522-9.375 33.901-.04L224 284.505l154.745-154.021c9.379-9.335 24.544-9.317 33.901.04l22.667 22.667c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941L240.971 381.476c-9.373 9.372-24.569 9.372-33.942 0z\" fill=\"currentColor\"\/><\/svg><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 448 512\" width=\"1em\" height=\"1em\" ariahidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" class=\"gb-accordion__icon-open\"><path d=\"M240.971 130.524l194.343 194.343c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941l-22.667 22.667c-9.357 9.357-24.522 9.375-33.901.04L224 227.495 69.255 381.516c-9.379 9.335-24.544 9.317-33.901-.04l-22.667-22.667c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941L207.03 130.525c9.372-9.373 24.568-9.373 33.941-.001z\" fill=\"currentColor\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><\/p>\n<div class=\"gb-accordion__content\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-521ad2bb\">\n<p>My customer experience with Elite Home Warranty was strong.

For starters, their plans have many exclusions \u2014 none of which are unusual for the industry. But the sheer quantity makes it challenging to assess if your appliances or systems would be excluded based on system mismatches, lack of appliance capacity, and if you perfectly adhered to routine maintenance suggestions with a licensed technician backing you up. This is a lot to juggle, so I\u2019m not sure I find it worthwhile, particularly with AFC\u2019s lower coverage caps (only $500 per membership term for your septic system, for example).\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>AFC Home Club\u2019s sample policy had extensive exclusions that stood out as more than most providers based on my countless hours of research looking into home warranty providers. I also found many coverage caps based on membership terms (the length of your plan), which I haven\u2019t seen with other companies to the same degree. These caps were very low. For example, AFC only pays up to $150 per membership term for your garbage disposal, ductwork, and range exhaust, according to their sample policy for Platinum Plan members. Another con was that the Diamond Plan, AFC\u2019s most comprehensive plan with many unique additional benefits like electronics protection, wasn\u2019t offered in some parts of Alaska. Since their additional benefits are one of AFC\u2019s biggest pros, this is a huge letdown for anyone living in Anchorage or other parts of Alaska who doesn\u2019t have access to this plan.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>With all this said, AFC Home Club may be a great choice if you would benefit from their Club Benefits like free or discounted medical and insurance benefits, credit monitoring, home security, and retail and restaurant deals.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-c3be52b9 gb-accordion__item\" data-transition=\"slide\">\n<p><button class=\"gb-button gb-button-693b1297 gb-accordion__toggle\"><span class=\"gb-button-text\"><strong><\/p>\n<h3>Plans and Coverage: 8.3\/10<\/h3>\n<p><\/strong><\/span><span class=\"gb-icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 448 512\" width=\"1em\" height=\"1em\" ariahidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" class=\"gb-accordion__icon\"><path d=\"M207.029 381.476L12.686 187.132c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941l22.667-22.667c9.357-9.357 24.522-9.375 33.901-.04L224 284.505l154.745-154.021c9.379-9.335 24.544-9.317 33.901.04l22.667 22.667c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941L240.971 381.476c-9.373 9.372-24.569 9.372-33.942 0z\" fill=\"currentColor\"\/><\/svg><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 448 512\" width=\"1em\" height=\"1em\" ariahidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" class=\"gb-accordion__icon-open\"><path d=\"M240.971 130.524l194.343 194.343c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941l-22.667 22.667c-9.357 9.357-24.522 9.375-33.901.04L224 227.495 69.255 381.516c-9.379 9.335-24.544 9.317-33.901-.04l-22.667-22.667c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941L207.03 130.525c9.372-9.373 24.568-9.373 33.941-.001z\" fill=\"currentColor\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><\/p>\n<div class=\"gb-accordion__content\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-ca374396\">\n<p>During my secret shopping, the Diamond Plan was unavailable in my area (a home in Anchorage). This is a bummer since it covers 18 systems and appliances, exterior water and sewer lines, and electronics like your smartphone. If you live in an area where AFC offers the Diamond Plan, it\u2019s a solid plan to consider as it covers 18 systems and appliances and electronics, such as your smartphone, and exterior water and sewer lines. Otherwise, AFC\u2019s plans stand out with their unique additional benefits, such as free programs and discounted services and goods through their Club Benefits, which are available with all plans. These benefits include free and discounted rates on insurance, medical benefits, credit monitoring, home security, and retail and restaurant discounts. These are very unusual offerings in the home warranty industry, so if you take full advantage of them, AFC may be a strong contender for your home\u2019s coverage.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The following prices factor in the $100 discount offered at checkout.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\">\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><em>Plan<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>Monthly Cost<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>Service Fee<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>Available Discounts<\/em><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><em>Silver Plan<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>$36.83<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>$75<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>Up to $250 off when you call, free roof leak protection, and $100 off applied at checkout (online)<\/em><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><em>Gold Plan<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>$51.92<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>$75<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>Up to $250 off when you call, free roof leak protection, and $100 off applied at checkout (online)<\/em><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><em>Platinum Plan<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>$57<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>$75<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>Up to $250 off when you call, free roof leak protection, and $100 off applied at checkout (online)<\/em><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><em>Diamond Plan<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>$99.92<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>$75<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>Up to $250 off when you call, free roof leak protection, and $100 off applied at checkout (online)<\/em><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n<p><em>Editor\u2019s Note: The cost data mentioned in this article was sourced for a single-family, two-bedroom home under 5,000 square feet in Anchorage.

AFC Home Club will pay up to $3,000 per item per membership term for appliances, which is average for the industry, but at these lower policy costs, this is a pretty budget-friendly choice. However, you\u2019ll want to remember that \u201cyou get what you pay for,\u201d as some items receive coverage between $150 and $500, like your kitchen refrigerator ice maker or standard thermostat (which only receives $80 of coverage per membership term). While it\u2019s unlikely that your thermostat will give out multiple times in less than three years, this still isn\u2019t a lot of coverage, so keep that in mind.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-76f0f4c5 gb-accordion__item\" data-transition=\"slide\">\n<p><button class=\"gb-button gb-button-a2b30c92 gb-accordion__toggle\"><span class=\"gb-button-text\"><strong><\/p>\n<h3>Customer Experience: 9.2\/10<\/h3>\n<p><\/strong><\/span><span class=\"gb-icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 448 512\" width=\"1em\" height=\"1em\" ariahidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" class=\"gb-accordion__icon\"><path d=\"M207.029 381.476L12.686 187.132c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941l22.667-22.667c9.357-9.357 24.522-9.375 33.901-.04L224 284.505l154.745-154.021c9.379-9.335 24.544-9.317 33.901.04l22.667 22.667c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941L240.971 381.476c-9.373 9.372-24.569 9.372-33.942 0z\" fill=\"currentColor\"\/><\/svg><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 448 512\" width=\"1em\" height=\"1em\" ariahidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" class=\"gb-accordion__icon-open\"><path d=\"M240.971 130.524l194.343 194.343c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941l-22.667 22.667c-9.357 9.357-24.522 9.375-33.901.04L224 227.495 69.255 381.516c-9.379 9.335-24.544 9.317-33.901-.04l-22.667-22.667c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941L207.03 130.525c9.372-9.373 24.568-9.373 33.941-.001z\" fill=\"currentColor\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><\/p>\n<div class=\"gb-accordion__content\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-4d40fa43\">\n<p>My experience with AFC Home Club was smooth. The online quote process was fast and easy, and you truly received a quote in \u201cthirty seconds,\u201d as advertised.A major pro of working with AFC is that you can choose your own technician. As long as the technician is licensed and insured, AFC Home Club will work with them as they perform repairs on your home. If you don\u2019t know any local technicians, AFC will send someone from their extensive nationwide network of skilled contractors. So, you get the best of both worlds. However, the greatest benefit is that AFC offers a <strong>long work guarantee <\/strong>of up to three years. Most home warranty companies, like Liberty Home Guard, offer a one to two-month guarantee, but you can receive greater peace of mind with AFC, which guarantees repairs for the life of your plan, which is either one to three years, depending on your plan length. This applies even if you choose your own contractor, as well as to costly repairs such as AC units or water heaters.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-f0dbcdcd gb-accordion__item\" data-transition=\"slide\">\n<p><button class=\"gb-button gb-button-d9be7150 gb-accordion__toggle\"><span class=\"gb-button-text\"><strong><\/p>\n<h3>Company Reputation: 8.3\/10<\/h3>\n<p><\/strong><\/span><span class=\"gb-icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 448 512\" width=\"1em\" height=\"1em\" ariahidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" class=\"gb-accordion__icon\"><path d=\"M207.029 381.476L12.686 187.132c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941l22.667-22.667c9.357-9.357 24.522-9.375 33.901-.04L224 284.505l154.745-154.021c9.379-9.335 24.544-9.317 33.901.04l22.667 22.667c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941L240.971 381.476c-9.373 9.372-24.569 9.372-33.942 0z\" fill=\"currentColor\"\/><\/svg><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 448 512\" width=\"1em\" height=\"1em\" ariahidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" class=\"gb-accordion__icon-open\"><path d=\"M240.971 130.524l194.343 194.343c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941l-22.667 22.667c-9.357 9.357-24.522 9.375-33.901.04L224 227.495 69.255 381.516c-9.379 9.335-24.544 9.317-33.901-.04l-22.667-22.667c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941L207.03 130.525c9.372-9.373 24.568-9.373 33.941-.001z\" fill=\"currentColor\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><\/p>\n<div class=\"gb-accordion__content\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-79573a57\">\n<p>AFC is accredited with the Better Business Bureau, Consumer\u2019s Advocate, and Consumer Affairs, demonstrating a strong history of customer satisfaction.

While this isn\u2019t uncommon, it\u2019s something that Alaskan homeowners need to be aware of before signing on with AFC Home Club and other providers, as you don\u2019t want to be left without a heater come winter.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\">\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><em>Rating Site<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>Rating<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>Number of Reviews<\/em><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><em>BBB<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>B<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>Customer Reviews are not used in the calculation of BBB Rating<\/em><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><em>Trustpilot<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>3<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>24<\/em><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><em>Yelp<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>1.9<\/em><\/td>\n<td><em>337<\/em><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n<p><em>Editor\u2019s Note: The ratings provided were accurate at the time of writing.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-1fc43e3b gb-accordion__item\" data-transition=\"slide\">\n<p><button class=\"gb-button gb-button-7f2d6993 gb-accordion__toggle\"><span class=\"gb-button-text\"><strong><\/p>\n<h3>Claims Process: 6.8\/10<\/h3>\n<p><\/strong><\/span><span class=\"gb-icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 448 512\" width=\"1em\" height=\"1em\" ariahidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" class=\"gb-accordion__icon\"><path d=\"M207.029 381.476L12.686 187.132c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941l22.667-22.667c9.357-9.357 24.522-9.375 33.901-.04L224 284.505l154.745-154.021c9.379-9.335 24.544-9.317 33.901.04l22.667 22.667c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941L240.971 381.476c-9.373 9.372-24.569 9.372-33.942 0z\" fill=\"currentColor\"\/><\/svg><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 448 512\" width=\"1em\" height=\"1em\" ariahidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" class=\"gb-accordion__icon-open\"><path d=\"M240.971 130.524l194.343 194.343c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941l-22.667 22.667c-9.357 9.357-24.522 9.375-33.901.04L224 227.495 69.255 381.516c-9.379 9.335-24.544 9.317-33.901-.04l-22.667-22.667c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941L207.03 130.525c9.372-9.373 24.568-9.373 33.941-.001z\" fill=\"currentColor\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><\/p>\n<div class=\"gb-accordion__content\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-6cee7ad0\">\n<p>Many AFC reviews highlight issues with the claim process in reviews. Some of the biggest complaints include long wait periods, poor reimbursement rates, and multiple claim denials \u2014 something no homeowner wants to see when shopping for a home warranty policy meant to protect them during stressful events like your dishwasher breaking down. Unfortunately, my research also found shortcomings in AFC\u2019s claim process, including the fact that there are no emergency services. The provider is closed on nationally recognized holidays, which may lead to delayed service request assignments. While other providers like Elite Home Warranty charge extra for assistance on holidays or after hours, the provider still offers emergency repairs. AFC doesn\u2019t, which could leave you with a leaking laundry machine damaging your floors in the meantime. Compared to their competition, AFC is lackluster in this area.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\" http:=\"\" alt=\"\" class=\"lazyload\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/lh7-us.googleusercontent.com\/FubDSbs4W4JkOE85NHPP0v-VZDtH_ycqMI_J0vkd4g_QNSqVJLQ_CFw6Nk3MWJRm8j9r0GyIwSoDn_G7Ta_BxB60MNwVQfkubWEqQPTGQlrq31d7A-llgRltu6S6Q4oE89Q8oFAvftFBR2nkfmrhTqU\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/lh7-us.googleusercontent.com\/FubDSbs4W4JkOE85NHPP0v-VZDtH_ycqMI_J0vkd4g_QNSqVJLQ_CFw6Nk3MWJRm8j9r0GyIwSoDn_G7Ta_BxB60MNwVQfkubWEqQPTGQlrq31d7A-llgRltu6S6Q4oE89Q8oFAvftFBR2nkfmrhTqU\" class=\"lazyload\" alt=\"\"\/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-3ccf690b gb-accordion__item\" data-transition=\"slide\">\n<p><button class=\"gb-button gb-button-5df6e1dc gb-accordion__toggle\"><span class=\"gb-button-text\"><strong><\/p>\n<h3>Availability: 10\/10<\/h3>\n<p><\/strong><\/span><span class=\"gb-icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 448 512\" width=\"1em\" height=\"1em\" ariahidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" class=\"gb-accordion__icon\"><path d=\"M207.029 381.476L12.686 187.132c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941l22.667-22.667c9.357-9.357 24.522-9.375 33.901-.04L224 284.505l154.745-154.021c9.379-9.335 24.544-9.317 33.901.04l22.667 22.667c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941L240.971 381.476c-9.373 9.372-24.569 9.372-33.942 0z\" fill=\"currentColor\"\/><\/svg><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 448 512\" width=\"1em\" height=\"1em\" ariahidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" class=\"gb-accordion__icon-open\"><path d=\"M240.971 130.524l194.343 194.343c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941l-22.667 22.667c-9.357 9.357-24.522 9.375-33.901.04L224 227.495 69.255 381.516c-9.379 9.335-24.544 9.317-33.901-.04l-22.667-22.667c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941L207.03 130.525c9.372-9.373 24.568-9.373 33.941-.001z\" fill=\"currentColor\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><\/p>\n<div class=\"gb-accordion__content\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-6ffc53fc\">\n<p>AFC Home Club isn\u2019t available in California, Hawaii, and Washington, but Alaskan homeowners can enjoy most of AFC\u2019s plans.
