EasyCare Repair Service Plans - Terms and Conditions
What the EasyCare Heating, Central Cooling and Water Heater Plans Include:
Plans cover residential natural gas heating, water heating, and central cooling equipment, and are available only to the owner of the property (“Customer”). Commercial applications and single units servicing two or more dwelling units are excluded. Each heating system, water heater, and central cooling system (if covered) must have an individual EasyCare Plan. Services will only be provided after you inform Unitil (“Company”) of a problem with your existing equipment.
For All Systems (Heating, Central Cooling, Water Heaters):
The Plan is not intended to bring noncomplying equipment into compliance with state and local codes.
At its discretion, the Company may use qualified contractors to fulfill all or any part of its obligation under the terms of this agreement. All gas piping systems must be readily accessible. Any damage caused, or costs incurred, to gain access to inaccessible gas piping systems, including restoration costs, will be the responsibility of the Customer (examples of Customer restoration costs - plaster, drywall or ceiling repair). The Company will not be responsible for replacing incorrectly sized gas piping systems. Gas appliances, appliance regulators, underground piping and pre-existing conditions are not covered by this agreement.
Terms and Conditions for all EasyCare Products: This commitment does not provide any express or implied warranties concerning existing equipment or conditions. We do promise a reliable commitment to respond to your call for service and to repair or replace parts covered by the Plan. Weather conditions and workload may affect the response time. Plan coverage becomes effective within 15 days upon approval for qualified systems.
This Plan does not cover any materials, parts or labor required as a result of flooding, fire, freezing, riots, strikes, work stoppages, any abnormal conditions, Customer negligence, or the replacement, repair or maintenance of any devices, parts or controls other than those specifically covered by the Plan. Furthermore, the Company will not be liable for damages incurred by the Customer or anyone else caused by unavoidable delays, failure to service, obsolete parts, unavailability of parts, equipment failure, weather conditions, work stoppage, strike or other circumstances beyond the Company’s control.
To the fullest extent allowed by law, the Company’s liability hereunder is limited to three times the amount paid under the Plan by Customer over the past 12 months and in no event shall the Company be liable for any indirect, consequential or incidental damages or lost profits. This agreement is not for the benefit of anyone other than the Company and the Customer. Repair or replacement work on non-covered items can be handled by the Company at our regular service rates or we will assist you in contacting a plumbing and heating contractor. The Customer is required to provide the Company with safe and reasonable access to the premises and appliances. The Customer is responsible for routine cleaning, maintenance and replacement of air filters, air registers, the chimney and lubrication of motors.

The Company reserves the right to deny entrance into the Plan at the Company’s discretion.
