Company Response

2/10/2025

This letter serves as our response regarding your steam boiler concerns that was installed in November 2023. We apologize for any inconvenience that you may have experienced with scheduling a service with the Sears service department. Per our conversation on January 23, 2025, it was my understanding that you called in for a recent service due to the boiler not heating as it should. A Sears tech came out and recommended you contact a plumber because the water was not in the boiler. You expressed you went local to fix the boiler and will have the invoice forwarded for my review for a possible refund. After reviewing the invoice dated Jan. 17, 2025, from your contractor, it appears that the contractor is not a licensed plumber. However, he replaced the water feeder and chimney stack that was cracked. It was explained to you on February 5th that I tried to reach out to the contractor because I had questions about the repairs but have not received a response. You mentioned that they will reach out to me but they have yet to do so. That said I have reviewed the two items that your contractor repaired with our licensed contractor of the company who has over 50+ years' experience. The chimney stack was not in the scope of the original contract therefore Transform/Sears is not responsible for a refund for repairs on something not included in the contractual agreement. Transform/Sears will also not be responsible for the water feeder repair because it worked as it should within the first-year workmanship warranty. If it was installed incorrectly then the boiler would have not worked properly when it was installed in Nov. 2023 until repairs were needed. The contractual agreement states on page 3 of 12 that we would repair/replace if installation proves faulty within one year after the completion date. The completion date was on Nov. 9, 2023. The workmanship warranty expired Nov. 9, 2024. While you purchased a 7year master protection agreement (mpa) plan this plan only includes service for the steamed boiler itself. The mpa does not cover items that are accessories to the unit. For instance, water feeders or any parts connected to the boiler. I have enclosed a copy of an mpa for your records. At this time, we are closing our file as we fulfilled our contractual obligations. We are sorry for any confusion with the mpa coverage and inconvenience for service on the boiler. If you have any additional questions or concerns, please contact me at 407-417-1991, or via email at [email protected]. Sincerely, Melissa Caldwell Transform Regulatory Complaint Supervisor
