What's covered in a well pump warranty?

 Well pumps can fail due to a worn pressure switch, a faulty control box, a failed motor start capacitor or a foot valve that lets the pump lose prime. Here’s how manufacturer warranties, extended warranties and a home warranty add-on typically compare. 
Manufacturer warranty Extended warranty Home warranty
WHAT TYPICALLY GOES WRONG WITH THIS APPLIANCE
Parts Limited (defects only) Limited (defects only) Yes (with add-on)
Labor Yes (with add-on)
Diagnosis Yes (with add-on)
Pressure Switch and Control Box Limited (defects only) Limited (defects only) Yes (with add-on)
Motor and Start Capacitor Limited (defects only) Limited (defects only) Yes (with add-on)
Removal and Reinstallation See plan terms
Pump Not Used as the Home's Water Source Varies by maker Varies by plan
Wear and Tear Yes (covered failures with add-on)

Coverage varies by plan, model and condition. See sample contracts for full details.

A home warranty can be a more cost-efficient option if you want to protect a larger number of appliances and cover a wider range of potential issues. Instead of buying multiple individual protection plans, a home warranty consolidates coverage under a single service contract, often at a lower overall cost.

Home warranty vs. well pump warranty

Manufacturer warranties usually cover defects in a new well pump for a limited time, often one to two years. Many cover parts only, so labor costs, like pulling and reinstalling a submersible pump, may fall on you. Extended warranties can lengthen that protection, but what they cover, from labor to normal wear and tear, varies by plan.

A home warranty offers broader protection. Instead of covering just your well pump, it can include other systems and appliances, like plumbing, electrical and heating, under one plan. Well pump coverage is available as an optional add-on, so you can protect it alongside the rest of your home. When a covered item breaks down from normal wear and tear, you submit a claim and pay a deductible. Subject to plan terms and conditions.

Why adding well pump coverage to your home warranty is smart

A well pump works every time anyone in the house uses water, and its switches, valves and motor parts wear over time.  Instead of purchasing a standalone well pump warranty, you can add well pump coverage to a Cinch Home Services plan that already helps protect systems like heating, cooling, electrical and plumbing, plus kitchen and laundry appliances. Subject to plan terms and conditions, including caps and exclusions.

Covers all models — ongoing protection even after the manufacturer warranty ends

Even if your well pump is older or no longer covered by the manufacturer, a home warranty add-on may still provide protection. Cinch Home Services plans help cover items regardless of age, make or model, and include coverage for unknown pre-existing conditions — whether your pump is submersible or a jet pump, as long as it supplies water to the home. Subject to plan terms and conditions, including caps and exclusions.

I am very happy with Cinch. Submitting a claim with Cinch was straightforward; they sent someone out quickly. The service was much faster compared to other home warranties I've previously used. Their quick and efficient service stands out. My granddaughter submitted the claim online, and they called me soon after to set up an appointment. The tech arrived the next day, which was very convenient.
I haven't had many claims, but the one experience I had was handled swiftly and met my expectations. I rate my experience with Cinch as fabulous. Their customer service is excellent, as are the services they provide.

Cinch takes care of the customer when there's a problem. The person they decide to use follows up and texts you every step. They have good customer service and always present themselves well. Whenever you have a question, they're always there to answer it. Recently, my water heater was leaking. It couldn't be fixed so it had to be replaced. If I know somebody's looking for a home warranty, I always tell them about Cinch Home Services. They're wonderful. You don't have to go out there and look for anyone to fix anything for you ‘cause they got your back.

My experience when submitting a claim was very seamless and effortless. The tech who came knew what the issue was with the heater immediately and he ordered the fan motor. They had it the next morning and he came and put it in the next morning. It was during the winter when I didn't have heat because of it and they were really fast and on the ball.
