It is important to keep the heat we generate within the building by using insulation and energy conservation measures. Modern houses are built to high insulation standards, but if your property is more than ten years old, your insulation could probably be improved. The most cost effective energy conservation measure is loft insulation. You should have at least 200mm (8") and preferably 250mm (10") of fibreglass insulation in your loft. Other measures you can employ are cavity wall insulation and up to date double glazing.
We install the latest energy efficient central heating systems, designed to give optimum comfort levels combined with efficient use of fuel. Whilst most boilers installed today are condensing boilers, many are not fitted with fully modulating controls which enable the boiler to work at optimum efficiency. We have a policy of only installing boilers which can be used with fully modulating controls, ensuring our customers get the most out of their new heating system. All our heating systems are individually designed for the property using industry standard heat loss calculations to ensure a cost effective solution to your heating needs.
The benefits of softened water are many and varied so please spare us a moment to explain them to you. By removing the existing scale within your heating system and preventing it re-occurring it will reduce the amount of fuel used to heat your hot water. Tests carried out at a Government recognised laboratory confirmed that the steady state improvement was 5.6%. To put that in perspective, if you have fitted a condensing boiler with a Sedbuk rating of 'A' the reduction in efficiency would bring it back down to a Sedbuk rating of 'C' which is below the Government Guidelines.
We carry out all types of domestic plumbing work, including repair and installation of taps, showers, WCs, hot and cold water systems. We are licensed to install unvented hot water systems such as Megaflo, designed to give high pressure hot water throughout the home.
