Fisher & Paykel is a major manufacturer of refrigerators, dishwashers, laundry machines, ventilation units, ovens, cooktops, ranges, and other home appliances and accessories. If you own a Fisher & Paykel appliance, you should be mindful of the terms of the company’s limited warranty policy to avoid overpaying for potential repair costs. Here’s what you need to know about the Fisher & Paykel warranty.
As a general rule, Fisher & Paykel provides a two-year limited manufacturer’s warranty on all appliances. This warranty covers all costs of parts and labor if the appliance requires repair because of a mechanical defect or poor workmanship. Fisher & Paykel refrigerators have an additional three years of coverage for the sealed refrigeration system (i.e., the compressor, evaporator, condenser, filter dryer, and connecting tubing).
Don’t neglect the fine print. If you’re a resident of Alaska, you’re responsible for the cost of shipping your appliance to a service center or sending a technician to your home for a service call. If you’re using the appliance in commercial applications, the warranty is valid for one year and covers parts only.

Fisher & Paykel’s warranty does not cover damage sustained from misuse or abuse, incorrect installation, faulty in-home wiring, pests, accidents, fires, or floods.
If you bought your Fisher & Paykel appliance secondhand, the company will continue to honor the warranty, provided it has been less than two years since the original owner’s purchase.
A Fisher & Paykel warranty covers basic workmanship and product defect issues. You’ll enjoy a two-year limited warranty on most appliances and up to three years of coverage on your sealed refrigeration system. The manufacturer will cover the cost of replacement parts and any labor expenses associated with the repair.
You should consider having your appliances professionally installed to maximize the protection of your warranty. If you install the appliance yourself and make a mistake, it could void or limit your warranty.
Fisher & Paykel warranties include a lot of exemptions. The company does not cover any damage caused by:
The company also does not provide any coverage for cosmetic damage like scratches, dents, or cracks. It is important to carefully examine your appliances before accepting them from the delivery company. If you observe any cosmetic defects, decline the delivery.
Should you get a Fisher & Paykel warranty or a home warranty? Generally, you should get both. A Fisher & Paykel warranty is included free of charge with your product purchase. You’ll enjoy two years of protection that covers product defects and workmanship issues.
You should also consider a home warranty. A home warranty will cover many of the same components as the Fisher & Paykel warranty and then some. More importantly, you can extend the coverage beyond two years, giving you peace of mind for the life of your appliance.
If you partner with a warranty provider like Liberty Home Guard, you can cover all your major appliances under a single policy. Our warranty plans can protect everything from your refrigerator to your washing machine.
Home warranties are pretty simple. You choose the type of coverage you want and obtain a free quote. The Liberty Home Guard Appliance Guard plan covers general and primary kitchen appliances like your refrigerator, oven, dryer, dishwasher, and more.
Once your plan is in place, there’s nothing left to do except call Liberty Home Guard when you encounter a problem. We will connect with one of the technicians in our nationwide network and schedule a repair appointment. That’s it.
The technician will come to your home and address any repair issues. We will foot the bill, and you can get back to using your Fisher & Paykel appliance.
Once the limited warranty expires, you have two options to repair your Fisher & Paykel appliances. One option is to simply pay for repairs yourself when needed. The second option is to invest in Fisher & Paykel protection plans or extended warranties.
Fisher & Paykel has offered their own extended warranties in the past, but consumers are more likely to obtain one through a third party. This third party could be the retail store where the appliance was purchased. It could also be a home warranty provider, such as Liberty Home Guard.
We can provide extended, affordable protection for your Fisher & Paykel appliances. What’s more, we can help you bundle coverage to include your other home appliances and systems, even if they were manufactured by different companies.

A home warranty is a service contract that covers the cost of repairs and replacements for your home’s systems and appliances when they break down over time from normal wear and tear.
It’s simple, you can select the coverage plan of your choice that is the best fit for your home and budget.
When you request service for a covered item, you will be charged a pre-set fee in order to initiate the service request.
With an LHG home warranty, when a covered item needs repair, simply follow these steps:
Liberty Home Guard offers 3 different plans depending on the coverage your home needs. The Total Home Guard is a combination of both our Appliance Guard and Systems Guard plan. It is our most comprehensive and most economical.
We offer add-ons to each plan. Check HERE for our Home Warranty Plans & Policies page to learn more about everything we cover.
A home warranty covers the costs of repairs and replacements of major home appliances and systems. Home systems, for example, include plumbing, electrical, and HVAC.
Homeowners insurance provides coverage if theft or natural disaster hits.
The main difference is that a manufacturer’s warranty generally covers the failed part of a single appliance, but usually doesn’t include the cost of labor or repair. With a home warranty, one plan covers a variety of systems and appliances, making it a more cost-effective way to safeguard your home.
A home warranty protects the homeowner’s budget by removing the risk of fluctuating expenses when big ticket items break down. With a Liberty Home Guard home warranty, the homeowner will pay for a monthly plan, along with a flat rate service call fee associated with any repairs, rather than the full retail cost of replacing or repairing any of their home appliances or systems.
No. Liberty Home Guard doesn’t require a home inspection or any maintenance records to purchase a home warranty plan.
Liberty Home Guard will dispatch a licensed technician to your home within 24 - 48 (business) hours of your request. Extenuating circumstances do apply.

Yes, there are some limitations to what a home warranty plan can cover. Home warranties cover breakdowns that occur due to normal wear and tear. For example, if a fan in your AC unit breaks due to natural use, LHG would cover the replacement. However, if that AC was broken from human misuse or a natural event, it would not fall under our coverage.
No, it doesn’t. You can get an LHG warranty plan no matter the age of your appliances.
You can start requesting service after 30-60 days depending on the coverage you purchase. If you purchased your plan while buying your home, ask your agent about whether or not we start coverage on the day the escrow closes.
If, for any reason, you need to change your plan, you can do so within the first 30 days of purchasing your coverage. To make a switch call (833) 544-8273
Yes, you can read a sample Service Contract Agreement HERE.

Yes, you can cancel at any time. If your cancellation occurs within the first 30 days of your coverage, we’ll refund your contract fees minus the cost of claims paid, and we will charge a small administrative overhead fee. If you cancel after the 30th day, you’ll receive a prorated refund of your contract fees for the rest of the contract term minus the cost of claims paid, and we will charge a small administrative overhead fee.
