Extensive Home Warranty Plans
Achosa Home Warranty offers two home warranty plans, as well as a variety of add-on coverage options. The Advantage Plan and Advantage Plus Plan provide basic coverage for major appliances and systems.
The plans cover the exact same appliances and systems; the only difference between the two plans is the maximum annual coverage limits for central air conditioning and heating, and water heaters. The following appliances and systems are both covered in the Advantage and Advantage Plus plans:
- Attic and exhaust fans
- Central air conditioning
- Central heating
- Dishwasher
- Electrical system
- Garage door opener
- Garbage disposal
- Kitchen refrigerator
- Built-in microwave
- Oven/range/cooktop
- Plumbing and drains
- Roof leaks
- Sump pump
- Washer and dryer
- Water heater
This coverage alone is extensive and will likely cover your needs, but if you are in need of additional coverage, Achosa offers the following add-on coverage options:
- Additional refrigerator
- Stand-alone freezer
- Jetted bathtub
- Ductless mini-split system
- Pool/spa
- Saltwater pool/spa
- Water softener
- Well water pump
- Septic system
- Stand-alone ice maker
It is important to note that coverage limitations do apply.
Choose Your Own Contractor
The ability to choose your own contractor for a repair or replacement service is what sets Achosa Home Warranty apart from its competitors. Many home warranty companies require you to use one of their own licensed contractors from the company's network, but Achosa offers homeowners greater flexibility and control with the option to choose their own contractor.
If, however, you don't have a preferred contractor, Achosa can help you choose a contractor to address your service request.
Online Plan Purchase Process
You can easily purchase an Achosa Home Warranty plan online and coverage will begin 30 days after purchase. If you are buying a home, coverage will typically begin on the day of closing.
Cons
- No Online Claim Request Service
- No Pricing Information Available
- Coverage Limits
No Online Claim Request Service
While you can purchase an Achosa Home Warranty online, that is where the online convenience starts and ends. Many home warranty companies allow you to make a service claim online, but this isn't an option with Achosa.
To request service you must call Achosa, after which you must await approval on your claim. The inability to make a service request online can make the process longer and more inconvenient.
No Pricing Information Available
Achosa Home Warranty's website is difficult to navigate, making it difficult to find information, particularly pricing information. You will likely have to call and speak with an Achosa customer service representative to find out what a home warranty plan will cost and what other fees you will be responsible for.
Coverage Limits
Achosa Home Warranty does offer extensive coverage through its Advantage and Advantage Plus plans, as well as its add-on coverage options, but certain limits and exclusions apply. For example, while Achosa does cover a wide variety of appliances and systems, it does not cover all equipment or parts associated with each appliance or system. No specific list of exclusions is provided, so if you have any questions or concerns, you may need to call the company and speak with a customer service representative.
The Bottom Line
Achosa Home Warranty sets itself apart by providing homeowners with the options to choose their own licensed contractors to address service requests.
The company provides extensive appliance and system coverage, but certain limitations and exclusions will apply, although these aren't specifically outlined on the company's website. Overall information is limited on the Achosa website, so you will likely need to call for more information about coverage and pricing.
