Central Heating Breakdown Cover
Central heating problems usually start small — a noisy pump, cold radiators, pressure drops — then turn into “no heating” when you need it most. Our cover options are built for real homes: clear tiers, predictable monthly cost, and a straightforward way to get help when the heating system stops doing its job.
Why central heating cover helps
Central heating faults are rarely “convenient”. When your radiators won’t heat evenly, the pump sounds rough, or the boiler is firing but the house stays cold, you want a simple route to diagnosis and repair.
Cover is ideal if you’d rather avoid surprise call-out costs and want to budget monthly instead. It’s also a good fit when the system is older, has been altered over time, or you’ve had to reset things more than once.
What “central heating” usually means
Most homeowners use “central heating” to describe the whole heating circuit: radiators, pipework, valves, pumps, controls and (on many homes) the hot water cylinder controls too. The right tier depends on what you want protected and how much of the system you’d like included.
Cover tiers (boiler-only → full home)
Start with the guide below. If your priority is the heating side (radiators, circulation, valves), you’ll normally be looking at the system-level tier. If you want broader peace of mind, the top tier extends protection further.
Common central heating faults that trigger call-outs
These are the everyday problems we see when the heating side stops performing. The fix depends on correct diagnosis (not guesswork), and the right tier helps reduce the “what will this cost?” stress.
