Most boilers are not covered under your general home insurance policy. Some insurers do so you need to look through your policy to see if you’re covered or not. Also most insurers will normally charge an excess of if you make a claim which can be very high so it’s important to fully understand your policy. Most people either take out a seperate boiler cover policy or pay for it by credit card or through the bank.
Home Cover
So you will probably need to take out a seperate home cover as boilers are prone to breaking down and they will need repairing especially the older they get. This is why they are not normally covered under your general home insurance policy. If you do decide to take out a seperate home insurance cover then it’s invaluable to shop around as prices can change dramaticaly between different companies. There is also a lot of companies that will take your money every month and when it comes to busy periods eg winter and engineers are booked out everywhere they cannot send someone for several weeks.
Is Home cover right for me?
I would say it depends on the age of your boiler. If you have had to pay a local engineer like ourselves and the boiler is 8 years or older then it’s very much a thing I would take out. A lot of manufacturers offer guarantees on their boiler when it’s fitted than can last 10 years as long as it’s been serviced every year by a gas safe registered engineer.
