Check your written warranty for the actual start event, inclusive end date, registration rules and exclusions. This tool does not verify coverage or eligibility.
How to use this calculator
- Check whether coverage starts at purchase, delivery or installation.
- Enter the term exactly as shown in your warranty document.
- Keep the original receipt and warranty terms beside the calculated date.
How the calculation works
The planning end date is the coverage start date plus the warranty term in calendar months. If that day does not exist in the target month, the last day of that month is used.
Worked example
A 12-month term beginning January 15, 2026 gives a planning end date of January 15, 2027. Your warranty wording determines whether that date is included.
