The fundamental distinction between landlord and homeowner boiler service insurance is that the insurance should cover the landlord’s requirement to keep an annual Landlord Gas Safety Record. This is something we can offer with all of our landlord services. For your convenience, we can provide electronic copies of the certificates of all our heating engineers registered with Gas Safe.
The boiler service and central heating system, including the radiators, are covered under the Boiler & Central Heating System Cover. The annual boiler service is also included in this. In comparison, the home cover policy has all the elements listed above but also covers problems not related to boiler heating service.

Boiler insurance isn't usually covered on standard home insurance. Boiler insurance covers repairs, parts, and possible replacement of your home boiler. Boilers can be costly to repair that is why the insurance is necessary.
Landlords can purchase landlord or rental property insurance to protect their properties. A landlord insurance should cover the building and any contents that are the property of the landlord.
It can. The problem with homeowner's insurance policies is that you are never really comparing apples to apples, and then there is the degree of coverage. The policy will most surely cover aspects of the boiler and damage that may ensue from boiler problems, but only reading the policy would explain if it does. Some home warranty policies may cover this as well. Home warranty policies have been expanding their coverage these last few years, and they would possibly cover repairs to a boiler (yet again, policies are different from each company).
