No, I do not mean the mother-in-law this time, but I agree, equally as annoying!

We all go through the same routines in our lives. As humans, we have a need to be organized and methodical, otherwise chaos reigns. Unfortunately, we also have a tendency through familiarity to miss the obvious and concentrate on the obscure. By that I mean we face similar decisions at certain times of the year and through habit we deal with them the same way each time. That is why we have insurance to cover those events that we know will happen, but not when they will happen. It is for this reason that sensible householders are turning to home emergency cover.

Unless you have your boiler serviced every year, it is almost a certainty it will break down eventually. Unfortunately, that always happens when you fire it up the first time it turns cold. So you are then left without heating until it is repaired.

You know you should deal with it every year, but you put it off until `next time`!

Well, now there is no excuse, because modern home emergency cover includes, for a small charge, an annual boiler service. Now you will know in advance whether the boiler needs repairing or replacing before it breaks down.

Now you can pat yourself on the back and look good even in the eyes of that other `old boiler`!
