Commercial Boiler Installation & Replacement

Investing in a commercial boiler installation for your property can lead to long-term cost savings. By designing a boiler system tailored to your business’s needs, you can achieve optimum energy efficiency, thereby reducing your energy bills. Furthermore, if your boiler’s Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating is F or above, it must be replaced in compliance with the Government’s Energy Act.

There are lots of boiler brands to choose from but is always wise to opt for a brand that focuses on quality and efficiency. Here at Rowlen, we can fit a range of commercial boilers and will help you to choose the one that best meets your needs. Some of the most common brands we install include:

• Ideal Commercial Boilers
• Valliant Commercial Boilers
• Worcester Commercial Boiler
• Rehema Commercial Boilers
• Hamworthy Commercial Boilers

And many more

If the brand you are interested in is not listed, then don’t worry! Just contact us to discuss your requirements; we would love to hear from you!

A domestic boiler is designed for properties with an input of up to and including 70kw net. If the boiler’s input exceeds 70kw net, it falls into the commercial gas category. Commercial boilers are specifically built to handle larger premises and higher heating demands.

Longevity: Regular maintenance can significantly prolong the life of your boiler.

Should your commercial boiler require repair, depending on the problem’s severity, it might be wise to think about a replacement. Especially if your boiler is over 20 years old, opting for a new commercial boiler installation to enhance efficiency could be beneficial.

Repairing your heating system is crucial, especially in commercial property where maintaining appropriate temperatures and hot water access is often a responsibility, depending on the type of facility.

We install all leading commercial boilers from manufacturers such as Ideal, Rehema, Vaillant, Worcester Bosch, and more!

The process of installing a commercial boiler typically involves more intricacies compared to a standard residential boiler installation. Fortunately, our gas engineers are fully trained to handle installations of any scale, ensuring safe and efficient installation of new commercial boilers and central heating systems in your facility.

A commercial boiler installation must be performed by a commercial regiestered gas engineer. For gas-fired boilers, it’s legally mandatory to have a Gas Safe registered engineer with appropriate qualifications for the installation. In the case of LPG or Oil boilers, the engineer must hold relevant certifications, such as OFTEC certification. While it’s technically possible for an individual to install an electric boiler in their own, non-rented domestic property, it’s generally advised against for safety reasons. Additionally, if you intend to sell or rent the property, the boiler may need reinstallation by a qualified engineer.

Yes, to give you a quote its a must as properly planned commercial boiler installations are essentially halfway to completion. Here are the critical steps we consider essential for every boiler installation project.

Initial Assessment:

The first step involves the heating engineer determining the required output of the plant rooms/boilers for your commercial heating system. For direct replacements, we often match or slightly increase the output compared to the existing units. In other cases, we calculate the heat loss taking into account any hot water system or plate heat exchangers, or by summing up the output of all heat emitters and adding a buffer for pipework losses then select most most efficient boiler for your needs.

Gas Supply Evaluation:

Next, we examine the natural gas supply, ensuring the meter and pipework are adequately sized to meet the new boilers’ demand while maintaining the correct gas pressure, considering the pipework’s length.

Installation Feasibility:

We then assess the installation’s feasibility, including flue routing options, condensate waste drainage, space availability, access for boiler delivery, connectivity to existing heating pipes, and whether a plate heat exchanger is needed to integrate the new boilers. We also consider the need for new controls, a pressurisation unit, expansion vessel, and any required improvements to the plant room’s

With these considerations addressed, we draft a preliminary work program, including changeovers to minimise downtime. A risk assessment and method statement are prepared to guide the installation team, outlining the plan and highlighting risk mitigation strategies. This phase also includes ordering the new boilers and all necessary materials, which may be staged or stored off-site if space is limited.

Implementation:

The process begins with safely isolating and removing the old equipment. Once the area is prepped, we install the new boiler, connect it to the existing system, and install the flue, possibly requiring scaffolding. Electrical connections and control system integrations follow.

Finishing Touches:

The project concludes with insulation of pipework, plant room painting, and sealing any new openings. The boiler is then commissioned, including flue gas analysis and adjustments to meet safety standards.

Documentation:

The final step involves completing all necessary paperwork for the gas safety certification and warranty registration, ensuring your new boiler system is fully operational and compliant.

This comprehensive approach ensures a seamless transition to your new boiler system, designed for efficiency, compliance, and long-term reliability.
