There's probably a max that they will pay towards a new AC and it's probably no where near the cost of a new unit

Ding ding ding

ETA honestly I don't know much about their current forms. Several years ago they would pay you a set rate for parts which barely covered their true costs and pay low labor scales.

They do it to keep it affordable for the homeowner, which is a good concept. It's really all about the techs they hire. Not many people like to work for free.

I had Old Republic home warranty the first year after we bought our house (came with the home). Our bathroom vent went out and they sent some sketchy repair man out to "fix" the issue. It worked for about a month and went out again. They gave me the runaround when I called them about it, which just happened to be around our renewal, and I decided not to renew. I had another electrician come out and look at it and he fixed the issue without a hitch. I called them before I decided not to renew with some questions about the warranty. They would only cover about $1500 to replace a new AC unit.

ETA: My AC went out about a year after I decided not to renew
