Compare tariffs & boiler cover How it works

Boiler cover availability, inclusions and eligibility vary by supplier and tariff. Always check the policy summary and exclusions before you switch.

Get matched with UK energy tariffs that include boiler cover benefits

If your boiler is a key part of your household comfort, a tariff with boiler cover extras can be appealing — particularly during colder months. EnergyPlus compares home energy tariffs across the market and highlights options that may include boiler cover or heating breakdown support as part of the package.

You’ll still want a competitive unit rate and standing charge, so we keep the focus on total value: the tariff price plus any included protection (where available). Submit the form and we’ll use your details to help you compare.

Important: “Free boiler cover” is usually a tariff benefit rather than a standalone insurance policy. It may be time-limited, may require registration, and may exclude pre-existing faults. Always read the supplier’s terms and the policy summary.

What you’ll need (2 minutes)

  • Your postcode (to check what’s available in your area)
  • A contact method (so we can share the best matches)
  • Optional: your current supplier and whether you prefer fixed or variable tariffs

Not sure if you’re eligible? Renters can sometimes switch, depending on who pays the bill and what your tenancy allows. If your landlord pays the energy bill, you may not be able to change supplier.

Why compare boiler cover energy tariffs?

Budget confidence

If a tariff includes some form of boiler assistance, it may help reduce surprise repair costs — especially if you’d otherwise pay monthly for a separate plan.

Convenience

Some deals bundle support (such as helplines, engineer call-outs, or heating cover) into your energy package — fewer bills to manage.

Compare value, not headlines

A “free” extra can still come with higher rates. We encourage comparing total cost and policy limits, not just the perk.

Home-focused options

We’re focused on domestic energy. Whether you’re in a flat, terrace, or detached home, we’ll help you see what’s available to households in your area.

Fixed or variable choices

Some boiler cover deals are tied to fixed terms. Comparing helps you weigh price stability vs. flexibility.

Switching support

If you decide to move, switching is usually straightforward, and your new supplier typically handles the changeover — no interruption to supply.

How EnergyPlus comparison works

  1. Tell us about your home using the form (postcode + contact details).
  2. We check whole-of-market availability and identify tariffs, including those with boiler cover perks where offered.
  3. Compare the details: unit rates, standing charges, contract length, and what boiler cover includes/excludes.
  4. Choose what suits you. If you switch, the process is designed to be seamless — your energy won’t be cut off during the changeover.

What we mean by “whole-of-market”

We aim to compare a broad range of UK domestic tariffs and highlight value. Availability can vary by region, meter type and supplier criteria.

What affects eligibility

Boiler cover offers may depend on your boiler’s age/condition, whether it’s serviced, your property type, and whether you have a gas supply.

What “free boiler cover” can mean on an energy tariff

Suppliers use different wording. Some tariffs include boiler cover as a bundled perk, while others include a discount period, a separate service plan, or access to a support line. The most important step is checking the documents provided by the supplier.

Boiler cover feature What it may include Common limits to check
Breakdown assistance Engineer call-out for boiler/heating breakdowns, sometimes with parts and labour up to a cap. Excess fees, maximum claim value, exclusions for pre-existing faults, limits on older boilers.
Annual boiler service A booked service visit, sometimes included for the first year. May require registration, may exclude parts/repairs identified during the service.
Heating & controls cover Support for radiators, programmer/thermostat, and some heating components. Some items may be excluded (e.g., smart controls), call-out limits, wear-and-tear clauses.
Home emergency add-ons Optional extras such as plumbing/drainage or electrical emergency support. Often not “free”; check price after any introductory period and what counts as an emergency.

Quick checklist before choosing a tariff with cover

  • Is the cover included for the full contract term or just for a set period?
  • Is there an excess to pay per call-out?
  • Are parts and labour included, and up to what limit?
  • Does it cover your type of boiler (combi/system/regular) and its age?
  • Do you need a recent boiler service or safety certificate?
  • How do you claim — and what are the response times?

How to judge if a “free boiler cover” tariff is actually good value

The right deal depends on your unit rates, standing charges, and how likely you are to use the cover. A bundle can be worthwhile, but only if the energy price is competitive and the cover is meaningful.

Compare the energy costs first

  • Check unit rate (p/kWh) and standing charge (p/day).
  • Look at contract length and any exit fees.
  • Confirm your meter type (credit, prepayment, smart).

Then price up the cover value

  • Is it included, discounted, or “free” for a limited time?
  • Does it include parts and labour, or just call-outs?
  • What’s the claim cap and what’s excluded?
Tip for households: If your boiler is older, check whether the cover accepts older systems and whether there’s a waiting period or inspection requirement. A cheaper tariff with separate cover may be better than an expensive “bundle”.

Eligibility & regional considerations (UK)

Postcode & network area

Tariffs and standing charges can vary by region. Your postcode helps us show what’s available where you live.

Meter type

Smart meters, credit meters, and prepayment meters may have different tariff options. Some perks may only apply to certain meter types.

Boiler & heating setup

Boiler cover typically relates to gas boilers and wet central heating. If you have electric heating, cover options may be different or unavailable.

If you’re in Scotland, Wales, or Northern Ireland

Supplier availability and tariff structures can differ. Your postcode ensures we only show deals relevant to your area and distribution region.

FAQs: energy tariffs with boiler cover

Is boiler cover really free with an energy tariff?
It can be included at no additional monthly charge for a period or for the full term, but it may be priced into the tariff. Always compare unit rates and standing charges, and read the cover terms (limits, exclusions, excess).
Will switching energy supplier interrupt my gas or electricity?
No. Switching is designed to be seamless. Your supply continues as normal while the admin is completed between suppliers.
Does boiler cover include an annual service?
Sometimes, but not always. Some packages are breakdown-only. Others include an annual service or offer it as an add-on. Check the policy summary.
What boiler types are usually covered?
Many policies cover common domestic boiler types (combi, system, regular), but restrictions may apply based on age, condition, fuel type, and servicing history.
Can tenants get an energy tariff with boiler cover?
If you’re responsible for paying the energy bill, you can often switch. Boiler cover eligibility may depend on who owns the boiler and whether you have permission for repairs. If your landlord controls the energy account, you may not be able to change supplier.
What information should I check before choosing a deal?
Confirm tariff type (fixed/variable), unit rates, standing charges, contract length, exit fees, and then read the boiler cover documents (excess, claim limits, exclusions, response times, registration requirements).
