Losing out on earned cash

You did the work.
The credit never posts.

When a part fails under warranty, the manufacturer owes you a credit for it. You only get that money if someone builds and files the claim in time. Here's how it slips away, in three quiet steps, on jobs you've already closed.

01

A part fails under warranty.

Your tech swaps the compressor or the motor, the system runs again, and the job gets closed.

02

The claim never gets built.

Nameplate photo, serial numbers, the invoice number, the tech's note, and a different portal for every distributor. It's nobody's job, so it waits.

03

The window closes.

No one gets a reminder. The credit you were owed never shows up on your distributor account.

How our product works

Three steps. You stay in control.

  1. STEP 1

    Email us the claim

    Email us the nameplate photo and a short note, from Gmail or any email. If anything is missing, we send you a short list and a simple claim page to fill it in.

  2. STEP 2

    Claimtorch builds the packet

    We read what you sent and email back a ready-to-file warranty claim packet (PDF). Once the missing details are in, you get an updated packet.

  3. STEP 3

    Desk files it, or your office clicks Submit

    With Desk, add us once. We file every claim. Remove us anytime. With Assist, your office reviews the packet and submits it. Either way, when the claim is approved, the credit posts to your distributor account.

What you get

Ready to file. Fix gaps in one tap.

Every claim comes back by email as a ready-to-file PDF. Missing details? Add them on one simple page.

Your numbers

What are you leaving on the table? Use your own numbers.

Every shop is different, so we won't guess. Put in what you see each month. The math is simple, and you can check every step.

What you're leaving on the table

An estimate from your inputs. Nothing you type is stored or sent.

Closed jobs with a part that failed under warranty.
Claims your office actually submits each month.
What the manufacturer credits for the failed part.
The manufacturer's labor allowance, if your claims get one.
Finding paperwork, filling in the portal, following up.
Wage plus overhead for whoever files claims.

Enter the first three numbers to see what's on the table.

Your numbers, your estimate. Not a promise of results. It assumes every unfiled claim would be filed in time and approved, and it doesn't include Claimtorch's fees. Office time is based on filing every eligible claim, not just the ones you file today, at the minutes you entered. Your office still reviews each packet and clicks Submit.

What comes off your office's plate

  • Chasing missing details, with a short list and a simple claim page
  • Working out which portal the claim goes to

Windows are tight

Ferguson wants the claim within 30 days of the repair.1 Daikin wants it within 45 days of the repair, and the failed part received within 30 days of filing, or the whole claim, parts and labor, is denied.2
