Rheem warranty for heating & cooling

30/100 Warranty ScoreRanked 13 of 25 brandsCheck your model's manual
The short version

Rheem doesn't cover everything, but keeps parts covered to 10 years. That full coverage is the same as most of the 25 brands we compared, which typically cover nothing in full. Some of this coverage only applies if you register the product.

From Rheem's published warranty, checked October 2026.

The fine print, decoded

What it leaves out

  • Water damage
Good to know before you buy
  • Labor is not covered; your installer bills for service time.
  • Equipment bought online or at auction is not covered.
  • Coverage ends if the unit is moved from where it was first installed.
