As of December 31, 2025, the Company has an additional operating lease commitment of $63.5 million for a distribution facility that has not yet commenced and is not included in the amounts in the table above. On March 1, 2019, we entered into an agreement with a financial institution to renew the lease of our corporate headquarters in Richardson, Texas for a term of five years through March 1, 2024. The property consists of an office building of approximately 192,000 square feet, land and related improvements. In December 2023, we purchased the property for $41.2 million. Environmental Environmental laws and regulations in the locations we operate can potentially impose obligations to remediate hazardous substances at our properties, properties formerly owned or operated by us, and facilities to which we have sent or send waste for treatment or disposal. We are aware of contamination at some facilities; however, we do not believe that any future remediation related to those facilities will be material to our results of operations. Total environmental accruals are included in Accrued expenses and Other liabilities on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. Future environmental costs are estimates and may be subject to change due to changes in environmental remediation regulations, technology or site-specific requirements. Product Warranties and Product Related Contingencies We incur the risk of liability for claims related to the installation and service of heating and air conditioning products, and we maintain liabilities for those claims that we self-insure. We are involved in various claims and lawsuits related to our products. Our product liability insurance policies have limits that, if exceeded, may result in substantial costs that could have an adverse effect on our results of operations. In addition, warranty claims and certain product liability claims are not covered by our product liability insurance. Total product warranty liabilities are included in the following captions on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets (in millions):
| As of December 31,
| 2025 |  | 2024
Accrued expenses | $ | 53.1 |  |  | $ | 49.1 |
Other liabilities | 114.1 |  |  | 109.4 |
Total product warranty liabilities | $ | 167.2 |  |  | $ | 158.4 |
The changes in product warranty liabilities related to continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were as follows (in millions):

Self-Insurance We use a combination of third-party insurance and self-insurance plans to provide protection against claims relating to workers’ compensation/employers’ liability, general liability, product liability, auto liability, auto physical damage and other exposures. We use large deductible insurance plans, written through third-party insurance providers, for workers’ compensation/employers’ liability, general liability, product liability and auto liability. We also carry umbrella or excess liability insurance for all third-party and self-insurance plans, except for directors’ and officers’ liability, property damage and certain other insurance programs. For directors’ and officers’ liability, property damage and certain other exposures, we use third-party insurance plans that may include per occurrence and annual aggregate limits. We believe the deductibles and liability limits for all of our insurance policies are appropriate for our business and are adequate for companies of our size in our industry. We maintain safety and manufacturing programs that are designed to remove risk, improve the effectiveness of our business processes and reduce the likelihood and significance of our various retained and insured risks. Total self-insurance liabilities were included in the following captions on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets (in millions):
| As of December 31,
| 2025 |  | 2024
Accrued expenses | $ | 6.7 |  |  | $ | 4.6 |
Other liabilities | 15.8 |  |  | 15.6 |
Total self-insurance liabilities | $ | 22.5 |  |  | $ | 20.2 |
Litigation We are involved in a number of claims and lawsuits incident to the operation of our businesses. Insurance coverages are maintained and estimated costs are recorded for such claims and lawsuits, including costs to settle claims and lawsuits, based on experience involving similar matters and specific facts known. It is management’s opinion that none of these claims or lawsuits or any threatened litigation will have a material adverse effect, individually or in the aggregate, on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Claims and lawsuits, however, involve uncertainties and it is possible that their eventual outcome could adversely affect our results of operations in a future period.
