What Maryland homeowners should check
Heating systems work hard
Boilers, furnaces and oil or gas heat carry the load for months. Confirm the plan covers your heating type and check its repair limits.
Older homes and pre-existing conditions
Plans generally exclude problems that existed before coverage began. Keep maintenance records so a claim isn't questioned later.
Frozen pipes are usually insurance
Sudden water damage from a burst pipe is typically a homeowners insurance matter; a warranty may cover the pipe repair itself. Read both policies.
