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

    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Now folks, I hereby declare the first church of Tombstone, which ain’t got no name yet or no preacher either, officially dedicated. Now I don’t pretend to be no preacher, but I’ve read the Good Book from cover to cover and back again, and I nary found one word agin dancin’. So we’ll commence by havin’ a dad blasted good dance.
    Samuel G. Engel (1904–1984)
