Armadillo Unveils Proprietary Green Incentive Program, Redefining the Future of Home Warranty


Kicked off just before International Day for the Preservation of the Ozone Layer, Armadillo offers a first-of-its-kind program that rewards customers for making energy-efficient and eco-conscious upgrades to their home systems and Appliances.
Clarksville, Indiana — September 16, 2025 — In a bold step toward a more sustainable future, Armadillo Home Solutions, a leading provider of home warranty services, is proud to announce the debut of its Green Incentive Program. This unprecedented initiative rewards homeowners for choosing energy-efficient HVAC systems, water heaters, and major appliances when replacements are called for.
This program reflects Armadilloʼs commitment to environmental responsibility and is designed to align with the evolving priorities of homeowners, especially as extreme weather becomes the new normal.
The time is now


According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency heat waves across the U.S. have tripled in frequency over the past 60 years. In 2024, the U.S. experienced its hottest summer on record, driving a surge in home cooling system failures, exorbitant HVAC repair costs, and a 13% spike in residential energy prices.
“These record-breaking heat waves have placed unprecedented strain on home systems and energy grids,ˮ said Matan Slagter, CEO of Armadillo. “The Green Incentive Program marks a fundamental shift in what a home warranty can be. Homeowners can now take action — reducing their energy use, future repair costs, and environmental Footprint.ˮ
Unlike traditional warranty offerings, Armadilloʼs Green Incentive Program includes:
- Cash-back rewards for upgrading to energy-efficient HVAC units, air handlers, and smart cooling systems
- Financial incentive for tankless and ENERGY STAR® certified water heaters
- Up to $1000 in additional coverage for kitchen and laundry appliances
Customers subscribed to an Armadillo warranty plan are automatically enrolled, unlocking savings and extra protection for making the right long-term choice.
“This is how home warranties should work in 2025, not just covering breakdowns, but encouraging better, cleaner solutions,ˮ added CEO Matan Slagter. “We’re very proud to be setting a new standard.ˮ
