Get comprehensive boiler cover & care plans to avoid any unexpected repair costs

Why is it important to get a boiler cover?

What is a boiler cover?

Simply put, boiler insurance and maintenance plans mean that your appliance is covered additionally against future breakdown events. It may or may not include free call-outs, depending on what type of boiler plan you choose. Either way, you’ll also get an annual boiler service, free of charge. With your boiler breakdown cover, you can claim for any repairs of the gas boiler, flue, gas supply pipe and controls. It’s also inclusive of all Gas Safe registered engineer’s labour costs.

Boiler insurance vs. appliance warranty

Why is a gas boiler cover really worth considering, even when complimenting your manufacturer’s warranty? Most boilers brands come with a warranty of just 2 - 5 years, excluding Worcester Bosh, Vaillant boilers and a few more. In addition, various warranty conditions apply. Say, your boiler breaks down, due to faults with other parts of your central heating system, then you won’t be able to claim anything under your standard warranty. In contrast, your boiler cover insurance includes free diagnostics, servicing, labour costs and spare parts when respective needs arise.
