Condensing boilers part of new efficient homes development

Articles > Boiler and Plumbing News > Energy Efficiency in Plumbing & Heating

Condensing boilers are part of a new housing development in Barnet, aiming to showcase energy efficient homes to consumers.

The three houses, built through a partnership between Barnet Homes and Barnet Council, are five-bedroom family homes that use solar panels as part of their green emphasis.

"The council is looking to become more environmentally-friendly across all services and this is just one example of how we can practically be more 'green'," said councillor Lynne Hillan, cabinet member for community services.

Condensing boilers are joined by thermostatic valves on each radiator in the new property to make heating the properties energy efficient and environmentally-friendly, while maintaining practicality too.

Roof insulation and double glazing also add to the properties' efficiency ratings.

Boiler manufacturer HRM recently announced intentions to introduce condensing versions of two of its ranges, the Wallstar combi and Weybourne floor standing boilers to comply with new building regulations.

I just wanted to thank you for your prompt and efficient service.

Having looked at a lot of websites, I was impressed by your low prices and very clear presentation. I didn't order directly via the web because we needed the boiler urgently and I wanted to phone to make sure it was available, and when I did that you responded very clearly, and then phoned back promptly to say it was available. Not long afterwards we received a call telling us what day it would be delivered, and it has arrived exactly as promised. Our plumber hasn't installed it yet, but I just wanted to thank you for the excellent way this order has been handled, at a very good price. This is particularly appreciated since it was fairly urgent.
