The offering of HomeServeвЂ™s repair plans to West Penn Power customers is an expansion of HomeServeвЂ™s existing relationship with FirstEnergy, the parent company of West Penn Power. Our plans provide convenient, timely repairs and relieve financial burdens when these emergencies occur.вЂќ вЂњHomeowners can face a great deal of stress when customer-owned electrical wiring is damaged and power canвЂ™t be restored, or when the air conditioner suddenly breaks down on the hottest day of the year. вЂњWe are pleased to be able to extend HomeServeвЂ™s optional plans to West Penn Power customers as a simple and affordable safety net against the expense and stress of urgent home repairs,вЂќ said Tom Rusin, CEO of HomeServe USA. These include plans covering interior electrical wiring, gas piping, as well as heating, cooling and water heating systems. Under the new program, West Penn Power customers will also have access to other repair plans through HomeServe. Plan holders will have access to a Repair Hotline that is accessible 24 hours a day, 365 days a year to bring local, licensed, and insured electricians right to their home for repairs. These repairs can be costly and are not typically covered by basic homeowners insurance. This can include repairs to the weatherhead, riser pipe, insulators, meter base and service entrance cable. The Exterior Electric Line service plan provided by HomeServe offers homeowners protection against repairs to the homeвЂ™s exterior electrical components that connect to the West Penn Power electric system. The new program will begin with an offer for the Exterior Electric Line service plan, which customers will receive in the mail over the next few weeks. Customers within West Penn PowerвЂ™s service area will have the opportunity to obtain protection against the inconvenience and unexpected expense of home repairs.
