Insurance for Large Commercial Heating Engineers

This page is for heating engineers and heating contractors whose work is focused on larger commercial premises and does not include air conditioning installation, servicing or repair. It can suit businesses working in offices, factories, warehouses, retail parks, schools, healthcare buildings, hospitality venues, industrial units and managed commercial property.

The insurance discussion should reflect the real heating work carried out, including installation, servicing, maintenance, repair, commissioning, pipework, controls, plant rooms, boilers, calorifiers, pumps, valves, radiators, heating circuits and associated commercial heating equipment.

Who This Page Is For

  • Contractors excluding air conditioning from their trade description.
  • Businesses servicing facilities managers, landlords, managing agents and commercial clients.

  • Public liability for injury, property damage, escape of water, fire, heat damage or access damage claims.

Large Commercial Risk Areas
