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

    The wider the range of possibilities we offer children, the more intense will be their motivations and the richer their experiences. We must widen the range of topics and goals, the types of situations we offer and their degree of structure, the kinds and combinations of resources and materials, and the possible interactions with things, peers, and adults.
    Loris Malaguzzi (1920–1994)

    The rank and file have let their servants become their masters and dictators.... Provision should be made in all union constitutions for the recall of leaders. Big salaries should not be paid. Career hunters should be driven out, as well as leaders who use labor for political ends. These types are menaces to the advancement of labor.
    Mother Jones (1830–1930)

    Though the whole wind
    slash at your bark,
    you are lifted up,
    aye though it hiss
    to cover you with froth.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
