Automatically transfers HVAC system warranties to new owners upon property sale in South Carolina.
This bill amends South Carolina law to ensure that when a residential property with an HVAC system is sold, the manufacturer's warranty on that system automatically transfers to the new owner. The warranty continues as if the new owner was the original purchaser, without extending the warranty term or requiring product registration. The warrantor remains obligated under the original terms and cannot charge a fee for the transfer. This applies to sales occurring after June 30, 2026, if the warranty is still in effect.
