Trane HVAC Warranty Coverage: Base vs. Registered Limited Warranty

Every Trane HVAC product, including air conditioners, heat pumps, and furnaces, comes with a Base Limited Warranty by default.

This Trane Base Limited Warranty goes into effect for units that are not registered or were registered more than 60 days after installation. It covers parts that might fail due to manufacturer defects but does not include labor costs related to repairs. In most cases, this warranty lasts 5 years, though length of coverage may vary depending on the product.

To unlock longer protection, homeowners must ensure their Trane product is registered within 60 days of installation. Doing so activates the Registered Limited Warranty, which extends parts coverage to up to 10 years at no extra cost. However, there are extended warranty options as well. The table below will help you further.
