The answer to everyday
Insurance problems
By Turner Van Martor
& Bryant
QUESTION: I read an in
surance ad the other day
which mentioned Fire and
Extended Coverage. The ad
didn't explain exactly the
Extended Coverage part and
I'd like to know about it.
ANSWER: Space won't per
mit a complete explana
nation but briefly Extended
Coverage is the grouping of
a number of insurance pro
tections that formerly were
written separately and ad
ding them to a fire insur
ance policy. Certain types
of explosion, windstorm,
hail, aircraft and vehicle
damage are covered in ad
dition to others. The prem
ium is low and you should
see a good insurance agent
for full details.
If you'll address your own
insurance questions to this
office, we'll try to give you
th correct answers and
there will be no charge or
obligation of any kind.
