Simple boiler check could 'save you over £100' on energy bills this winter

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

As the chill sets in, many of us are cranking up the heating, as much as we don't want to. However, an expert recently highlighted there might be savings to be had with a simple check.

A money saving specialist from WhichUK has pointed out that some households may be unnecessarily shelling out for boiler cover.

He noted that people could spend up to £100 a year on such protection, which might not be essential. Even though a lot of people think they need it, it turns out they may be losing more than they're gaining.

In a TikTok video, he explained: "An annual boiler package costs, on average, £180 every year. But, since the average service costs just £76 per year, then if you pay as you go, year by year, and you don't need any repairs - well, you're saving over £100 a year by not having cover. "Of course, if your boiler needs repairs, then that insurance policy provides peace of mind.
