Landlord boiler cover

As a landlord, boiler cover isn’t a strict legal requirement, unlike the mandatory annual gas safety check (CP12 certificate) you must arrange for every rental property.

However, landlords are legally responsible for keeping heating and hot water systems in safe, working order under the Landlord and Tenant Act. That’s why many landlords take out cover for boiler and central heating

Boiler breakdown cover for landlords provides protection against unexpected costs, plus peace of mind that tenants stay comfortable and your property remains compliant. Many landlords opt for heating and boiler cover that includes repairs, annual servicing, and full documentation. This helps avoid warranty issues and ensures compliance.

Choosing the right landlord boiler cover depends on your properties, budget and what level of protection you need. Here’s a quick guide to PlusHeat’s landlord cover plans and what each is best suited for:
