Central Heating Systems
Designing a Central Heating System Around Your Home
Every property is different, and a central heating system should be designed to suit the specific layout, insulation levels and hot water demands of the home it serves. An undersized system will struggle to maintain comfortable temperatures in winter; an oversized one wastes energy and money. At Plumbwise, we assess your property thoroughly before recommending a system, taking into account the number of rooms, the size and layout of the space, the type of boiler that will serve the system and the hot water requirements of your household.
We advise on the best radiator types and positions for each room to ensure even heat distribution, recommend the most appropriate pipework layout and factor in smart thermostatic controls from the outset. Modern heating controls including programmable thermostats and smart heating systems can make a significant difference to how efficiently your system operates, and we take care to specify the right controls for your lifestyle and budget.
Replacing and Upgrading an Existing System
Many older central heating systems were fitted at a time when energy efficiency was not a primary consideration. Pipework may be undersized for the number of radiators on the circuit, radiators may be poorly positioned or inadequate for the rooms they serve, and controls may offer little flexibility or precision. Upgrading to a modern, properly designed system can make a noticeable difference to both comfort and running costs.
At Plumbwise, we take a practical and straightforward approach to system upgrades. We assess what is in place, identify where the limitations lie and recommend targeted improvements whether that is adding radiators, re-routing pipework, upgrading controls or fitting an entirely new system.Â
