Steps:

  • Download the HomeServe app from the App Store, GooglePlay, or via text message through their website.

  • Scan the name plates on appliances in your home. You can usually find the name plate underneath or inside each appliance.

  • The app will automatically download all relevant information, manuals, and warranty information.

  • If an appliance experiences a malfunction, open that appliance in the app to learn some information about it to determine next steps.

  • The replacement parts list will list all the different replacement parts available for sale for the appliance and how much they cost.

  • It also lists the “useful life” of the appliance, so if the appliance is only expected to last a few more years and the replacement parts required to fix it are expensive, it might be worth replacing over repairing.
