Bakersfield is a city in the state of California that covers about 140 square miles near the southern end of the San Joaquin Valley and the Central Valley region. Bakersfield has a desert climate with long, hot, dry summers, and brief, cool, moist winters. A hot and dry climate means extended use of Bakersfield home systems and appliances like the central A/C unit, central heating, and electrical system. Long-term use of appliances and systems in Bakersfield homes can be a risk for normal wear and tear causing unexpected mechanical breakdowns. For this reason, it is recommended that all homeowners sign up for home service agreements in Bakersfield.
Bakersfield summers are very hot and there are extended stretches of hot weather. There are 108 days with an average of 90°F from April to October. From May to September there are 33 days above 100 °F. Typically, no rain falls from May through September. Winters feature mild daytime temperatures, but frost can occasionally be seen, often accompanied by dense Tule fog and low visibility. A hot climate means extra wear and tear on home appliances and systems. If your central heating system, central A/C unit, or electrical system experiences a mechanical failure due to normal wear and tear, having protection from an expensive repair or replacement is essential because a delay can make living conditions in the home very uncomfortable for everyone, and even unsafe.
One of the best ways to protect home appliances and systems in Bakersfield is to obtain a Home Service Agreement that’s flexible, affordable, and from a trusted provider, such as American Residential Warranty. A home service agreement helps protect homeowners from the high costs of unforeseen mechanical failures of their covered appliances and home systems, and the plan provides licensed, pre-screened, prequalified service technicians to assess the situation. If the issue is due to normal wear and tear or mechanical failure and it is a covered item, then the appliance or system will be repaired or replaced within the terms and conditions of the plan. For covered repairs the homeowner will only have to pay a nominal $55 service fee in most cases.

Having a home service agreement in Bakersfield provides protection against unexpected repair costs for your covered appliances and home systems that would NOT normally be covered under a manufacturer's warranty or homeowner's insurance. Homeowner's insurance usually just protects you against losses due to natural disasters, theft or vandalism, but would not normally cover costs to repair appliances or systems when they breakdown due to normal wear and tear.
