A domestic warranty is a type of warranty that covers household appliances and systems from breakdowns caused by normal wear and tear. It is designed to protect your home systems and appliances from malfunctions or damages that may occur after the manufacturers warranty has expired. Unlike a manufacturers warranty, which generally offers repair, service, and sometimes replacement of the specific appliance that its attached to, a domestic warranty provides discounted repair and replacement services for household appliances and systems. The terms and conditions of the warranty depend on the type of warranty covering the product.
