What is Protection Plus®
Protection Plus is an extended service plan that financially prepares HVAC customers for unexpected and unbudgeted repairs after the manufacturer’s limited warranty expires. Offering Protection Plus to customers is a great way to gain repeated business, increase profits and develop lasting client relationships.
Dealer Benefits of the Program • Customer Retention – Because Protection Plus requires annual maintenance on covered equipment, the Dealer has the opportunity to build ongoing relationships with customers. Consumers will rely more heavily on the installing contractor for quality customer service and future HVAC needs.
• Customer Satisfaction – Consumers no longer have to worry about costly repairs and will view their installing Dealers as a solutions provider. When service calls are required, Dealers should provide extra value by vacuuming any mess, wearing booties or changing smoke or carbon monoxide detector batteries. With these added benefits, customer satisfaction and loyalty increase, building equity for a solid foundation in any Dealer’s business.
• Increased Revenue – By offering Protection Plus, Dealers will gain a new source of recurring revenue. With the option of selecting the level of reimbursement based off customized choices for a variety of repair solutions, Dealers are able to control the level of reimbursement that best fits their business.

Dealer Eligibility & EnrollmentDealer Enrollment Protection Plus® is purchased by the Dealer directly from Service Net/AIG via the Protection Plus Portal through MyRheem.com, fax, email or standard mail. Distributors offer support for the program by assisting with enrollment, administrative questions, and coverage verification. The Dealer enrollment process is simple & fast requiring only submission of a completed Enrollment form, W-9 and liability insurance certificate.
PricingPricing to the Dealer The Dealer’s cost for the extended service agreement is based on the level of reimbursement chosen for a particular consumer that is purchasing a Protection Plus Service Agreement. There are 3 levels of reimbursement. Plan 1 is the least expensive while still providing a reasonable reimbursement rate. Plan 2 provides a higher level of reimbursement. Plan 3 has the highest cost, but has the largest level of reimbursement. Dealer pricing is also affected by the type of equipment and application. Residential equipment and applications are defined as equipment less than or equal to 5 tons that is installed within a single family dwelling, home, apartment or condominium where business is not conducted. Commercial equipment and applications, which tend to have higher plan pricing, is equipment greater than 5 tons that is installed in any type of business. Factories, industrial plants, schools and churches are common settings considered as commercial applications.
Pricing to the Consumer Dealers are able to determine the retail purchase price of Protection Plus to the consumer while balancing the goals of customer retention and profitability on the sale.
Consumer Deductibles $85-Deductible Option
Protection Plus Extended Service Agreements (Labor Only, Labor Plus) for residential products feature an $85 deductible per claim option, paid by the consumer at the time of service. The Dealer will be reimbursed by Service Net/AIG for the cost of the repair less the $85 deductible paid by the homeowner. Deductibles are common with standard insurance related products, such as car insurance, homeowners insurance and medical coverage, which all normally require a deductible. The goal for Protection Plus is to utilize this tool to mirror the insurance industry and have the ability to offer a more competitively priced extended service agreement plan option. It is important

to note that residential parts only coverage and all commercial coverages do not have the $85 deductible feature.
Non-Deductible Option
These plans have a higher ESA purchase cost to the Dealer; however, the consumer does not have to pay any deductible at the time of a claim, making this plan option appealing when thinking of future claims.
How Repair Codes Affect Dealer Reimbursement Reimbursement amounts are dependent on the original Protection Plus
Service Agreement that was purchased. Reimbursement amounts for labor are also affected by the “Repair Code” chosen for the claim filed. Repair Code Options are A, B, C, D or E, with Repair Code A representing less time consuming repairs, and Repair Code E representing those major repairs that will require a higher level of labor reimbursement. Please review the differentiation among the repair codes in the below chart.

Coverage Options There are three types of Protection Plus Coverage Options: “Labor Only”, “Labor Plus”, and “Parts Only”.
Labor Only Plans cover costs for the labor required to repair equipment less the deductible of $85 per claim (if deductible plan is sold). These plans can be offered for 2, 5 or 10 year terms with the 2 and 5 year plans offering renewal options.
Labor Plus Plans cover costs for the labor required to repair equipment less the deductible of $85 per claim (if deductible plan is sold) for a term of 10 years. In addition, a process allowance is included to provide the contractor a mark-up on the existing parts coverage from the manufacturer.
Parts Only Plans cover the cost of parts required to repair equipment for a term of 10 years, beginning the first day of the 6th year of the equipment’s life.
Labor Only and Labor Plus Plans begin 31 days after the installation or after the date of purchase, whichever date occurs last.
All three coverage options require equipment owners to have annual maintenance by a servicing Dealer or authorized service technician. Proof of proper annual maintenance may be required at time of claim. Please see Terms and Conditions for complete details.

CoverageCoverage SpecificationsCoverage Start DateProtection Plus® coverage starts 31 days after the extended service agreement is sold as long as the completed Application Order Form is submitted and received by Service Net/AIG within fifteen (15) days from the date of sale to the consumer. If Service Net/AIG is not in receipt of the Application Order Form within this time, then the coverage start date is 31 days after Service Net/AIG receives the Application Order Form in-house. A delay in payment may also affect coverage. If the coverage is purchased within the first 12 months from installation, labor coverage will begin 31 days after installation or after the date of purchase, whichever date occurs last. If coverage is purchased after 12 months of age, there is a 90 day wait period from the date of purchase before coverage takes effect.
Timeframe to Obtain CoverageEquipment must be less than 60 months old from date of installation to qualify for Protection Plus coverage. No technical inspections are required for coverage. Furthermore, all equipment has a specific make, model and serial number which were designated at time of manufacture. The information can be found on each piece of equipment. It is the dealer’s responsibility to verify the exact information for each piece of equipment to be covered. If it is determined at time of claim or at any time during the term of the agreement that the make, model and serial number(s) do not match the information contained in the application or actual agreement, coverage may be declined.
Repair CoverageCovered Repairs include mechanical and electrical failures that occur inside the “unit cabinet” of covered equipment during normal operation. Some examples of covered repairs include contactors, capacitors, motors, gas valves and coils. Refer to the Program Terms & Conditions for further details.
Companion Repairs Companion Repairs are claims that are submitted as multiple repairs when in fact they should be considered one repair. These are referred to as companion repairs as they are in fact part of the same failure. For companion repairs, coverage will pay ONE labor charge and ONE part allowance, but will still PAY for multiple parts on residential and commercial equipment.
Multiple Repairs To alleviate any confusion regarding multiple repairs for claims reimbursement, please note that multiple repair codes allow for the highest cost repair to be applied first, then the second repair is at 75% and any additional repairs on the same ticket are 50% of the applicable repair code.
Rheem.comProtection Plus Program Guide for Dealers 6
Coverage Exclusions Repairs required as a result of installation error are excluded from coverage. Typical exclusions include repairs resulting from lack of proper maintenance, acts of nature, war, terrorism, earthquakes, flood, lightning, hurricanes, and other forces of nature. Registers, batteries, grills, key valves, duct work, plumbing, venting, belts, dampers, field wiring, line sets, or nuisance calls such as resetting breakers, or thermostat adjustments also fall under the exclusion section. Claims not filed within 60 days of the date of failure will not be accepted for consideration under this agreement. Pre-existing conditions, including those as found during annual maintenance prior to purchasing the Agreement, are also excluded. Contaminations such as Green Slime, Dirty Sock Syndrome, etc., are excluded under this agreement. Consequential damage otherwise caused by rust, brownouts, or blackouts, or inferior building equipment such as Chinese Dry Wall are also excluded under this agreement. For agreements purchased before Jan 1, 2013, one leak per component is covered for the term of the contract and up to the initial charge of the unit. For agreements purchased after Jan 1, 2013, multiple leaks per component will be covered.
Refer to the Terms & Conditions in the back of the Program Guide for further details.
Maximum Limit of Liability The maximum limit of liability owed under this agreement will be the lesser of the current market value of the covered product or the installed retail price paid by the consumer.
Claim Filing, Tracking & ReimbursementClaims can be filed under Protection Plus® coverage via fax, email or standard mail by submitting a Claim Form, or they can be filed by accessing the Protection Plus Portal for faster service. A signed Service Ticket must be included with the Claim Form or the claim payment may be delayed.
Using the Protection Plus Portal, via MyRheem.com, Dealers can file claims on behalf on their consumers within minutes. They can simply log on to MyRheem.com and look for Dealer Support. From there, select Marketing Programs & Support and then Protection Plus from the menu. Once Dealers are within the Protection Plus Portal, they can enter a new claim, finish entering a partially started claim, track claim status and view their overall claim history.
IMPORTANT: Depending on the coverage option, reimbursement level and repair code chosen, the Dealer will receive payment for the applicable labor, service call and parts allowance. The payment, known as the reimbursement, will be less the $85 consumer deductible paid to the Dealer at the time of service. Reimbursement payment for valid claims will be sent directly to the Dealer within 30 days once all required information is received.
Option to Renew Expiring Protection Plus Plans Protection Plus Plan Renewals are an opportunity to extend the benefits of an ESA beyond the initial coverage period. Dealer benefits from Renewals are:
• Protected, satisfied customer base
• Guaranteed future service revenue
• Brand protection for Dealer/Rheem
• Lock out competition/whole home warranty companies
• Referrals and add-on sales opportunity
• Helps drive sales for maintenance agreements
• Increases the value of overall proposal to consumer
• Differentiate from competition
Expiring Protection Plus Agreements within residential applications can be renewed, giving Dealers the opportunity to continue to protect their customer base. Original 2 Year Labor Only Agreements can be renewed for 1, 3, 5 or 10 years. Original 5 Year Labor Only Agreements can be renewed for 1, 3 or 5 years. Depending on the existing Protection Plus Agreement in place, coverage can be extended out for a total of 12 years of extended protection. This enables the consumer to have continued peace of mind that they will not experience sudden out of pocket expenses for repairs.
Service Net/AIG will provide to the Dealer a list of those consumers that have Protection Plus Plans expiring. The renewal program will be solicited by Service Net/AIG on behalf of the Dealer. Service Net/AIG must have written authorization from contractor before any renewals are attempted. Dealers have the right to refuse to offer renewal options. The Dealer will remain the servicing Dealer and will maintain the required yearly maintenance contract.
