Most HVAC equipment sold by APCA Group is covered by a manufacturer warranty. Warranty coverage, duration, and terms vary by brand and product and are only applicable when installed by a professional.
Warranty claims for manufacturer defects or performance issues are generally handled in accordance with the manufacturer’s warranty process. We may assist customers with warranty-related documentation or guidance when possible, but warranty approval is subject to the manufacturer’s terms and conditions.

Once an approved return is received and inspected, any eligible refund will be issued to the original payment method. Please allow 5 to 10 business days after inspection for processing.
If a refund is denied due to product condition or policy non-compliance, the item may be returned to the customer at the customer’s expense.
