As a homeowner, protecting your investment is a top priority. With 2025 in full swing, protecting your investment should be your top priority. Discover essential strategies to maintain your home’s value, reduce unexpected expenses, and ensure comfort and security throughout the year with America’s Preferred Home Warranty."
At America’s Preferred Home Warranty (APHW), we’re here to ensure you’re prepared for what lies ahead. Here’s what homeowners should keep in mind as the new year begins.
Why a Home Warranty is Essential for 2025
Homeowners insurance focuses on damage from external events, while a home warranty focuses on your home's essential components that break from the normal wear and tear of everyday use.
APHW provides comprehensive coverage for your home’s major systems and appliances, offering peace of mind and financial protection. Unlike homeowners insurance, a home warranty covers items that break down due to normal wear and tear, ensuring you have a safety net for unexpected home repairs in 2025.
Unlike homeowners insurance, which focuses on damage from external events, a home warranty ensures your home’s essential components are protected from the wear and tear of everyday use.
With APHW, you can enjoy:
- The freedom to choose your own contractor.
- Comprehensive coverage tailored to your needs.
- Peace of mind knowing unexpected repairs won’t derail your budget.
Proactive Maintenance Saves Money
Stay ahead of costly repairs by scheduling routine HVAC inspections, cleaning gutters, and checking your water heater for sediment buildup. Proactive maintenance keeps your home running smoothly and complements your APHW coverage for ultimate peace of mind.

As we settle into 2025, make it a goal to:
- Schedule routine HVAC inspections and cleanings.
- Inspect your water heater for leaks or sediment buildup.
- Test smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.
- Clean out gutters and downspouts to prevent water damage.
A home warranty complements your maintenance efforts by providing coverage when systems inevitably need repair or replacement despite your best efforts.
Energy Efficiency Pays Off
Energy-efficient upgrades not only help the environment but also reduce your utility bills. Simple changes such as sealing windows, installing smart thermostats, or upgrading to Energy Star-rated appliances can have a major impact.
Plus, many of these improvements qualify for tax credits or rebates.
With APHW, you can feel confident knowing that your energy-efficient appliances are covered, allowing you to invest in sustainability without worrying about repair costs.
Weatherproofing Your Home for 2025’s Extreme Weather
Extreme weather events are becoming more frequent, and your home needs to be ready. Safeguarding your property starts with understanding the risks in your area and taking preventive steps.
These may include:
- Installing storm-resistant windows or shutters.
- Reinforcing your roof to withstand heavy winds or snow.
- Ensuring proper drainage to avoid flooding.
APHW’s home warranty services provide an additional layer of security, so you’re not left handling costly repairs alone after a weather-related event.
Budgeting for the Unexpected
Life sometimes throws us curveballs. Even the most well-maintained homes encounter issues due to normal wear and tear. Creating an emergency fund is a smart way to start preparing, but pairing that with a home warranty offers even greater peace of mind.
APHW’s customizable plans allow you to budget for repairs without breaking the bank, helping you avoid financial stress when inevitably goes wrong.
Smart Technology and Your Home
Smart home devices have become more common, offering convenience and added security. These systems can enhance your home’s functionality, including programmable thermostats, smart locks, and other security systems.
