Home Warranties: Smart Ways to Protect Your Appliances

Smart appliances offer convenience with Wi-Fi and sensor technology but complicate home warranty coverage. Home warranties typically cover mechanical failures of appliances and systems but often exclude smart features like touchscreens, Wi-Fi, or software issues. Repair costs for smart appliances are higher, and coverage limits may be insufficient. Buyers should verify appliance coverage, exclusions, and consider add-ons for smart features when selecting a home warranty.
