The standard warranty on your Goodman furnace and A/C equipment is for five years, however, if you register the equipment within 60 days of installation, Goodman will extend the warranty to ten years. Since the equipment was installed in new construction and not as a repair, it may be acceptable to use your closing date as the installation date.

Please note before registering that there are three distinct equipment components to the furnace and A/C and each of them has its own serial number and each has to be registered. Those components are:

• furnace – this is the unit that sits on the floor of your basement
• coil – this sits immediately on top of the furnace and looks like it’s part of the furnace but is in fact a separate piece of equipment
• air conditioner – this is the equipment found outside the house

You will need to gather the serial numbers for each of the three components. The serial number for the furnace itself is found in the documentation packet for the furnace. The coil sits on top of the furnace and its serial number should be on a sticker. Do not confuse it as the furnace serial number which is found in the paperwork. Finally, the air conditioner serial number is found on a sticker on the outside unit.

Once you’ve gathered the three serial numbers, register your equipment on Goodman’s web site, http://www.goodmanmfg.com/. There you will find a menu item for “Product Registration”.
