Metro Detroit
It is the week after a cold snap in Metro Detroit and a unit you installed last year fails. The part should be covered, but when your office calls the manufacturer, there is no registration on file, the serial number is on a photo nobody can find, and you end up eating the part and the labor.
With warranty management in place, every install gets registered the week it goes in, with serials, model numbers and photos stored on the job. When something fails, the claim gets filed with the right paperwork, the failed part gets returned on time and the credit gets tracked until it lands.
Warranty work stops being a loss you accept. The money you were owed actually comes back, customers get a quick fix with a clear explanation, and your office knows exactly where every open claim stands.
Tap the ones that sound like your week.

What we report every month: Installs registered, Claims filed and paid, Open claims and their age, and Credits recovered.
Many manufacturers offer a longer parts warranty only when the install is registered within a set window. Miss it and you fall back to the shorter base coverage. Registering at install is a small task that protects you and your customer for years.
The fee depends on how many installs you do, how many brands you carry and how many claims you file each month. A shop with one main brand and steady volume is simple. Several brands and a backlog of old installs take more work to set up.
Have the model, serial, install date, failure description and photos ready, and file through the manufacturer or distributor process. Return the failed part on time if required and keep the tracking. Then match the credit when it posts, since that is where many claims quietly die.
Some manufacturers pay a labor allowance on warranty repairs, often with specific rules. Knowing those rules for each brand you carry turns warranty calls from pure loss into partial recovery. We keep a simple sheet for every brand.
Most customers do not know the difference between a parts warranty and a labor warranty. A short, clear explanation at install and again at a repair prevents arguments later. Put it in writing with the registration confirmation.
Works on paper, but registrations get skipped and credits slip away.
Helps high volume shops, but a salary for work that comes in bursts.
We register every install, file and track claims, and chase credits until they land.
