Worked example

The claim that would have expired

Copperline Mechanical — the same HVAC contractor, ~30 warranty parts a year

A compressor fails under manufacturer warranty. The tech swaps it and moves on — that's the job. Whether anyone files the distributor claim inside its window decides whether the reimbursement exists. Documented windows run as short as 45 days, and a late claim is a denied claim.

This walkthrough follows a sample business. Where the engine is deterministic (statutory checklists, the filing calendar, the report arithmetic), the artifacts below are its actual output for the sample inputs — your dates and dollars come from your own setup.
