What is boiler cover?
Boiler cover is a type of service agreement to help protect you against the cost and inconvenience of boiler breakdowns.
Depending on the plan you choose, our boiler service agreements can include annual boiler service, boiler repairs, controls, central heating, and plumbing work for a set monthly fee.
It’s important to note that our boiler cover is a service agreement and not boiler insurance. A service agreement pays for agreed maintenance and repairs directly, while insurance covers specified risks under a regulated insurance policy.
Why choose boiler and central heating cover?
Even well-performing boilers can develop faults from time to time. When they do, boiler cover gives you peace of mind that help is at hand, so you won’t have to go without heating and hot water for long. This is especially valuable during the winter when service demand is high.
Annual maintenance: Our Silver, Gold and Platinum plans include an annual boiler service, helping to keep your boiler well maintained and meet the annual servicing requirements of many manufacturer warranties.
Boiler breakdown cover: If your boiler suddenly develops a fault or packs up completely, our Silver, Gold and Platinum plans provide a prompt breakdown service.
Cost efficiency: A one-off annual boiler service costs around £120, but our Silver, Gold and Platinum plans include that as standard. If your boiler breaks down just once during the year, your cover could prove well worth the monthly cost.
Central heating cover: Our Gold and Platinum plans include covered faults within your heating system, including pipework and radiators.
No excess: With our cover, you don’t pay an excess each time you make an eligible claim.
Emergency support: If something goes wrong, you can contact us for help Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm, along with a discounted out-of-hours service.
Unlimited claims: All of our plans include unlimited claims each year, up to £1,000 per claim.
Parts and labour included: All covers include parts and labour in the monthly fee.
Local support: We’re based in Southampton and Winchester so can get to most parts of Hampshire quickly.
What type of boiler cover do I need?
The right level of cover depends on what you need. You might only need support for your boiler and controls if your heating system is new or in good condition. If your system is older, you might choose more comprehensive cover to include your central heating system and plumbing.
Our four plans make it easy to choose the level of cover that suits your property and budget.
Boiler cover for landlords
Reliable heating and hot water are essential for rental properties, and landlords are bound by the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 to ensure heating systems remain in working order. Our boiler cover plans can help keep your properties’ systems well-maintained and reduce any disruption for your tenants.
Landlords can also add a Landlord’s Gas Safety Certificate to their cover plan for an additional monthly charge.
Boiler cover for homeowners
For homeowners, boiler cover provides added peace of mind. With regular servicing and maintenance, you’re less likely to suffer a boiler breakdown, which can be a very reassuring thought as the winter approaches.
Regular servicing helps to identify problems before they become expensive repairs. And if something does go wrong, we’re only a phone call away.
A set monthly fee makes it easy to budget, with parts and labour included.

How do JPS boiler cover plans work?
Before your cover starts, we’ll inspect your boiler, controls and heating system and carry out a boiler service, if required.
If we find an existing fault, we’ll explain what needs to be repaired and whether it affects your chosen plan.
Once your cover becomes active, you pay monthly by Direct Debit. If your boiler breaks down or develops a fault, just contact us, and we’ll arrange a call-out. The issue will be addressed promptly in line with your service agreement.
We’ll also remind you when your annual boiler service is due, making it easier to stay on top of.

Frequently asked questions about boiler cover
Can I get cover for an old boiler?
Older gas boilers may still be eligible for JPS boiler cover. Before your service agreement begins, we will inspect the boiler and let you know about any existing faults, exclusions or limitations that apply. If an older boiler later becomes uneconomical to repair, financial support towards a replacement is available under our Silver, Gold and Platinum plans if your boiler is eligible and under eight years old.
Do I need cover if my boiler is under warranty?
A manufacturer's warranty and boiler cover are not the same thing. Your manufacturer's warranty will likely cover certain boiler faults, while a JPS plan can also include an annual service and, depending on the level you choose, central heating or plumbing repairs. We can help you check the terms of your warranty to avoid you paying for cover you don't need.
Do your plans include central heating repairs?
Our Gold and Platinum plans include eligible central heating repairs as well as boiler and controls cover. This includes faults in radiators, thermostatic radiator valves and heating pipework.
Some work is excluded, including replacement radiators, underfloor heating pipes and power flushing, so please check your service agreement for full details.
Do you carry out boiler safety inspections?
We inspect your boiler before your service agreement starts and carry out a boiler service where required. Silver, Gold and Platinum plans also include an annual boiler service, giving our Gas Safe registered engineers the opportunity to check the boiler and identify any potential issues.
For landlords, we can also carry out the legally required annual gas safety check and provide a Landlord Gas Safety Certificate for an additional monthly charge.
Which boilers do you cover?
Our boiler cover plans are designed for eligible gas boilers and water-based central heating systems. Before your cover starts, we inspect your boiler and confirm whether there are any existing issues or items we cannot cover.
Oil boilers, solid-fuel boilers and dual-purpose appliances such as AGAs and Rayburns are not included under the standard plans outlined on this page.
Is boiler cover the same as boiler insurance?
No. JPS boiler cover is a service agreement rather than an insurance policy.
You pay a monthly amount for an agreed level of servicing, maintenance and repair cover. Depending on your plan, this can include your boiler, controls, central heating system and plumbing.
When comparing boiler cover, look beyond the monthly cost. Service agreements can differ considerably in their excesses, repair limits, waiting periods and what's actually covered. With JPS, your plan sets out the servicing, maintenance and repairs included, so you know what you're paying for.
