TEMPORARY ELECTRIC BOILER HIRE SOLUTION FOR HEATING CONTRACTORS

SUPPORTING HEAT PUMP INSTALLATION WITH TEMPORARY ELECTRIC BOILERS

A heating contractor working on a live building in Suffolk required a temporary heating solution while a new water-sourced heat pump system was being installed. During the works, full conditioning of the building was still required to maintain comfort and operational continuity.

Ideal Heat Solutions was appointed to supply a temporary electric boiler hire solution that would provide reliable heating via a temporary low-loss header, ensuring AHU coils, fan coils and underfloor heating circuits remained fully operational throughout the installation programme.
