Boiler cover and gas central heating protection
Boilers. Most of us have one. And as long as the water and radiators are hot, we can pretty much forget about them. But talk to a person whose boiler has just packed up (on a cold winter’s morning) and you’ll never hear the end of them. Why?
Boilers are one of the most expensive home items to be repaired or replaced. A typical single breakdown costs approximately £370*. Like most unfortunate things, we think, "It’ll never happen to me." We hope it doesn’t. That’s why we’ve put together shield - a gas boiler and central heating package to protect you from the costs and inconveniences that come with boiler problems.

Gas Safe Register™ / CORGI
From 1 April 2009, the CORGI registration scheme has been replaced by a new registration scheme called Gas Safe Register™. By law, gas engineers must be registered on the Gas Safe Register™ to be able to work on gas installations. You can be reassured that all of our gas engineers are Gas Safe Register™ engineers.
*Potential cost of a boiler breakdown = £370: call-out charge over £50, two hours of labour £120, and replacing a new pump to £200. These costs are based on our standard service charges and potential costs for parts and labour.
**Terms and conditions apply. This offer is only available to Scottish Hydro Electric, Southern Electric and SWALEC dual fuel customers. This offer is not available to existing shield customers. The energy credit is not available to prepayment customers. Offer ends 29 January 2010.
