Extended 10 or 12-year warranty: While a standard 5-year warranty is provided, Boilerhut can extend it to 10 years (on the 050 and 200 models) and 12 years (on the 100-W model) as we’re a Viessmann premium installer. This extended warranty provides peace of mind, knowing that your home heating system will receive the necessary care. As long as the manufacturer service plan is followed, the Viessmann boiler warranty covers individual parts within the boiler, such as the signature stainless steel heat exchanger.
