Cover and Care Packages

Your heat pump comes with a 2-year guarantee as standard, but we have a range of Cover and Care packages available with a team of dedicated engineers to deliver complete peace of mind.


At Vaillant, we invest as much of our resources into our service and support as we do in creating outstanding heating solutions. That’s why, with our Cover and Care packages, you will have access to our fully trained Vaillant service engineers for each annual service, a dedicated support team with access to breakdown and repairs with genuine spare parts.


To maintain your heat pump product guarantee you must have an annual service. Regular servicing has the added benefit of keeping your system running efficiently and can solve any issues before they cause a breakdown.
