Boiler Insurance - Types of Boiler Cover

Types of Boiler Cover

More than 22 million UK households rely on a boiler for their heating and hot water. But boilers are not usually covered by standard home insurance. They can be very costly to repair or replace so if you own your own home; it is advisable to take out separate insurance for your boiler or central heating system.

You only need to get boiler cover for your home if you are the owner, or if you're the landlord of the property. If you live in social housing or rent from a private landlord then any repairs to the boiler are not your responsibility.

Boiler cover is usually a contract tying you into regular monthly payments for a year.

There are various types of boiler cover available in the UK:

  • Boiler only
  • Boiler and service
  • Full heating system

Famous quotes containing the words types of, types and/or cover:

    ... there are two types of happiness and I have chosen that of the murderers. For I am happy. There was a time when I thought I had reached the limit of distress. Beyond that limit, there is a sterile and magnificent happiness.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    The bourgeoisie loves so-called “positive” types and novels with happy endings since they lull one into thinking that it is fine to simultaneously acquire capital and maintain one’s innocence, to be a beast and still be happy.
    Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    Laid out for death, let thy last kindness be
    With leaves and moss-work for to cover me:
    And while the wood-nymphs my cold corpse inter,
    Sing thou my dirge, sweet-warbling chorister!
    For epitaph, in foliage, next write this:
    Here, here the tomb of Robin Herrick is.
    Robert Herrick (1591–1674)
