Scottish and Southern Energy has launched a gas boiler maintenance, installation and servicing business aimed at 3.5 million homes across England, Scotland and south Wales.
Full breakdown and emergency cover is offered by the Shield service, as well as a 24-hour helpline.
The entire heating system of a policy holder is covered, including radiators and pipes.
Ian Marchant, the company's chief executive, said: "As one of the leading energy companies in the UK, we now have a top reputation for providing our customers excellence in customer service coupled with a safety record to be proud of.
"We are now determined to bring our expertise into this new area, with an offering to householders to both rival and beat our competitors.
He added: "Our aim is to offer a safe and high quality service that will not only attract customers with existing policies, but also reach the large part of the market that does not yet have any form of boiler servicing in place."
