Please note the warranty program also doesn’t cover any consequential loss or damage or anything else already covered by your homeowner’s insurance policy. If you live in a condo, the warranty program does not cover loss or damage to or from other condo units, common areas, or any other loss or damage that is the responsibility of your condominium corporation.
