PLP- Terms and Conditions

2023-2024

This Residential Parts & Labor Plan Contract (this “Plan”) is available to customers of the Philadelphia Gas Works (“PGW”) who have natural gas house heaters, gas water heaters, gas dryers and/or split system electric central air conditioners combined with gas heating (collectively, “equipment”). PGW reserves the right to amend or modify these terms and conditions and this Plan via posting of new terms and conditions on at www.pgwplp.com. This Plan serves to protect the Customer from parts and labor costs associated with repair or replacement of defective or worn parts as a result of normal usage of covered equipment.

All equipment to be covered under this plan must be certified by the American Gas Association, Underwriters Laboratories, Canadian Gas Association, International Approval Services or Electrical Testing Laboratories and installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s and PGW’s installation requirements. The manufacturer’s original design of the equipment cannot be altered and the equipment must be maintained with original parts or manufacturer’s specified replacement parts. The equipment must be in good operating condition on the date this plan becomes effective for coverage to apply. PGW reserves the right to inspect the covered equipment.

Enrollment for the Plan is year-round. Current customers have the ability to renew their plan up to 60 days prior to their current plan’s expiration. If a plan is renewed before the expiration of the current plan, the new expiration date will be one (1) year from the current expiration date. For all new customers and any customers who attempt to renew their plan after deadline or purchase a plan after their plan’s expiration date, the commencement date of their Plan will be the 15th calendar day following receipt of payment and the expiration date of their Plan will be the day prior to the one (1) year anniversary of such commencement date. In no event will a Plan be activated unless full payment has been received and successfully processed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Plan was purchased on the PGW My Account website, unless the auto-renew option is declined by the customer, this Plan will automatically renew and payment (at the current rate and under the terms and conditions in effect at the time of such renewal) will be automatically deducted on the expiration date of the current term for an additional year unless the customer declines the auto-renew option through the PGW My Account website no later than 2 days prior to such renewal date. Plans are not transferable to another address. However, a Plan contract will be assigned to a succeeding occupant of the premises for the balance of the term at no additional charge. Plans are nonrefundable except under specific conditions stated throughout this contract.

GENERAL CONDITIONS

This Plan is subject to the following terms:

A. PGW guarantees to provide next day service to customers purchasing a Parts & Labor Plan covering a house heater if a customer service request is received before 12 o’clock noon (excluding Holidays) from December 1 through April 15. Plan customers may call from 8AM to 6PM (Monday through Friday) and speak to a representative. Simply dial (215) 235-2050 for house heater service. After 6PM or during the weekend, leave a message and a customer representative will return your call to schedule an appointment. A service technician will contact you by phone on the day of the service visit to verify the appointment time.

B. PGW will also attempt to provide next day service to customers purchasing a Parts & Labor Plan covering an air conditioner if a customer service request is received before 12 o’clock noon (excluding Holidays). PGW will not provide service to a combined central heating and air conditioning system during the cooling season (May 15 through September 15) unless the customer has purchased a Plan that covers air conditioning.

Plan customers may call from 8AM to 6PM (Monday through Friday) and speak to a representative. Simply dial (215) 235-2050 for air conditioner service. After 6PM or during the weekend, leave a message and a customer representative will return your call to schedule an appointment. A service technician will contact you by phone on the day of the service visit to verify the appointment time.

C. PGW will continue to give prompt and efficient service for all other covered equipment. Parts will be obtained as quickly as possible. Interchangeable parts will be used when exact parts are not available. Exchanged parts retained by PGW will become the property of PGW. Response time is subject to weather and workload conditions.

D. Customers may choose and pay for one of eleven (11) individual plans: (i) House Heater, (ii) Gas Clothes Dryer, (iii) Water Heater, (iv) House Heater and Water Heater, (v) House Heater, Water Heater and Gas Dryer, (vi) House Heater and Electric Central Air Conditioner, (vii) House Heater, Water Heater and Electric Central Air Conditioner, (viii) House Heater, Water Heater, Electric Central Air Conditioner and Gas Dryer, (ix) Water Heater and Gas Clothes Dryer, (x) House Heater and Gas Clothes Dryer, and (xi) House Heater, Gas Clothes Dryer and Electric Central Air Conditioner. Coverage under the plan(s) by type of equipment is described in the Coverage section. If a system or appliance is not functioning because of a part that is not covered in the Coverage section, PGW will have no responsibility to repair such system or appliance, and no refund will be provided. In order for there to be coverage of an individual piece of equipment, a plan must be purchased for each specific piece of equipment, or for any equipment combination (for example, 2 gas house heaters and 2 gas water heaters will require the purchase of 2 House Heater and Water Heater combination plans).

E. The Customer is required to provide the service person with adequate lighting and safe and reasonable access to the premise and equipment.

F. The Customer is responsible for properly cleaning and maintaining the air filters, the proper adjustment of air registers and the lubrication of motors. Defective blower motors that result from failure of the customer to change air filters will not be replaced under this Plan. PGW shall have no obligation or liability for covered equipment which is subject to abuse or misuse. Customer’s failure to authorize or effect the replacement of any parts which are required to maintain the equipment in good condition will void this Plan.

G. A single boiler providing heat and hot water (Summer/Winter hook-up) requires a combination Plan (House Heater and Water Heater), as domestic hot water and house heating are produced by a single unit.

H. If there is more than one heater attached to the same account number, a separate Plan must be purchased for each heater.

PGW’s Check & Adjust must be purchased in conjunction with a Parts & Labor Plan for your natural gas heating appliance. The Check & Adjust cannot be purchased as a standalone item. A Check & Adjust is only available for your heating equipment and will not be available for any other equipment covered under a Parts & Labor Plan. Each customer who purchases Check & Adjust along with their heating plan is permitted one (1) inspection of their heating appliance during each Plan year of such customer. Inspections are performed between September 1 and November 15 each year, weather and conditions permitting. Customers are responsible for scheduling their annual inspection. Service to items on the above list could be limited based on seasonal temperatures and conditions found. If a PGW technician encounters a problem with the heating equipment during the scheduled Check & Adjust, covered repairs will be made as provided in the Parts & Labor Plan terms and conditions; provided that the visit by the PGW technician constitutes the one (1) annual permitted inspection even if repairs are made pursuant to the Parts & Labor Plan.

Customers must allow 5-7 business days to schedule their inspection. Scheduling of inspections is based on workforce availability, so customers are advised to call early in the inspection season to secure an inspection appointment. PGW has the right to cancel an appointment at any time. If your appointment is canceled, a PGW representative will call or email you to reschedule. To schedule an annual inspection, call PGW’s Check & Adjust service line, weekdays during normal business hours, at (215) 235-2050 or email PGW.PartsandLaborPlan@pgworks.com. A PGW representative will respond to all Check & Adjust requests within 24 to 48 hours.

The above information only applies to PGW’s Check & Adjust. If you have a problem with your natural gas heater, please refer to the Parts & Labor Plan terms and conditions for the House Heater under “General Conditions”. For all questions about your Parts & Labor Plan, please call (215) 235-2050.
