The company looks after several types of site. The first is Retirement Homes/Care Homes which have a central plant room with a Commercial Scale ASHP providing the heating and hot water to all the rooms and properties on site. These units are usually 80-200KW+ in size.

Secondly, the design and build side of the company design and install innovative ‘Heat Pump Networks’ at new build housing sites. This is essentially a district heating system powered by heat pumps. There is a central ‘Energy Centre’ on the new build estate which has either cascaded or large scale Ground Source Heat Pumps and the heating and hot water is transferred to each property on the estate via the large diameter pipework. Each property has its own HIU meaning you will service and maintain both the plant room systems and also the HIU’s in customer properties.
