GoodLeap launches HVAC Lease to give homeowners a clear path to ownership - with no surprise buyout. Aug 27, 2026, 09:00 ET In partnership with AIG, the new offering combines lower upfront costs, built-in maintenance coverage, and flexible end-of-lease options SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - GoodLeap, the technology platform helping millions of people adopt sustainable home products, today announced the launch of its HVAC Lease. Unlike many lease programs that end in a large, unexpected buyout, GoodLeap's HVAC Lease gives homeowners a clear path to ownership from day one. The lease includes annual maintenance and covered repairs backed by AIG, one of the world's largest insurers. Heating and cooling systems are among the most essential and expensive investments in the modern home. When a system fails, especially during extreme temperatures, the disruption can be immediate, forcing homeowners to make replacement decisions quickly. In those moments, choices are often driven by cost and availability rather than what best fits the home's needs. GoodLeap developed its HVAC Lease to help homeowners make better long-term replacement decisions, even when those decisions must be made quickly. The offering also gives contractors greater flexibility in system selection, while providing homeowners predictable payments, maintenance coverage, and a transparent path to ownership with no surprise buyout at the end. "When your AC dies in the middle of a heat wave, you don't get weeks to shop around and too many families end up in lease agreements they didn't fully understand, still owing thousands after years of payments," said Dan Lotano, Chief Operating Officer at GoodLeap. "We built this the opposite way: one predictable monthly payment with maintenance and repairs included, a clear path to ownership from day one, and no surprise buyout at the end. And the contractor who installs your system stays your contractor, free to recommend the equipment that's actually right for the home." Built for Contractor Flexibility Contractors can install systems from leading manufacturers while maintaining continuity in service, maintenance, and warranty support throughout the lease lifecycle. Annual maintenance and covered repairs are included in the lease, allowing contractors to remain the primary service provider throughout the lease term and maintain the customer relationship beyond installation. "GoodLeap's HVAC Lease brings a more structured and predictable approach to supporting and maintaining HVAC systems over time," said Billy Leonard, VP & Head of AIG HVAC. "By participating in this program, we're helping create a model that improves clarity for homeowners and strengthens long-term service outcomes for contractors."

Predictability and Transparency for Homeowners For homeowners, the HVAC Lease provides predictable monthly payments, annual maintenance, covered repairs, and a clear path to purchase the system over time. Homeowners see the full payment schedule and purchase option pricing before signing, and the lease never auto-renews into open-ended payments. And because the lease isn't limited to whatever equipment is immediately available, homeowners can choose a system based on their home's size, climate, and service needs. The lease is designed without the large end-of-term buyout requirements common in many traditional offerings, giving homeowners more control as their system ages and needs change. Across its products, the company continues to focus on making essential home upgrades easier to navigate and manage over time.
