Sustainable Heating Solutions

With a holistic approach, we design and install whole-house heating and ventilation systems.

Benefits of our sustainable heating solutions include:

Pioneering technology

Infrared heating technology targets thermal heating at people and objects, rather than air, which is a far superior method of heating.

Maintenance-free

No moving parts means no need for maintenance. In addition, infrared heating provides ambient heat without provoking air circulation, meaning no dust disturbance – a notable benefit for asthma sufferers.

No more radiators

Heat your home from your ceiling, under your flooring or from behind your walls. Not only does this provide whole surface thermal heating, but it also negates the need for radiators.

Gas alternatives

With 14% of UK greenhouse gases emitted from our homes, it’s essential we move away from fossil fuels. Our whole-house sustainable heating solution, including passive ventilation, can make your home heating net-zero carbon.

Passive Ventilation

Use natural hot air and wind energy to keep airflow regulated in your home. Extracting stale air and replenishing it with fresh air. Not only does circulating air keep your home smelling fresh, but it’s also important for air quality and therefore health.

Is there anything more natural than taking in the sun’s heat and transferring it into energy? We don’t think so. That’s why we install Solar Thermal Energy panels to heat water in your home. Whilst a backup system is still essential, solar thermal energy can heat an average of 50-60% of your water every year, drastically reducing your carbon footprint.

Converting light into electricity, Solar Photovoltaic is natural and yet highly sophisticated. Not only does this renewable energy solution reduce your carbon footprint but it can also significantly reduce your electric bills.
