Care Home Heating: Safe, Fume-Free Warmth

The importance of heating within a care home cannot be overstated, with a warm environment paramount when residents are elderly or infirm. Appropriately heated rooms reduce the risk of respiratory illness and make shared spaces usable through the winter.

This is where fume-free electric heaters matter. Unlike direct fired units, they produce no exhaust gases, smells or vapours, so they can run safely in an occupied bedroom or lounge. Oil filled radiators go further, with a low surface temperature that is safe if a resident touches the unit.

Care home inspections cover heating and hot water provision, and a failed system during a cold spell becomes an inspection issue as well as a comfort one. Our assortment of units means a cost-effective solution can usually be found whatever the layout. We supply, deliver and will install the unit if required.

Heater Hire Across the Healthcare Sector

At Andrews Heat for Hire, we understand the importance of safe, effective temperature control — particularly where the elderly or young children are concerned. That is why we built our fast emergency response around keeping health facilities open, working closely with hospitals, GP practices, clinics and health trusts.

Our range of portable, temporary heating units covers most situations you are likely to meet, from a 1.5kW unit for a single consulting room to 42kW for a whole wing. We hold thousands of heaters across our depot network and aim to deliver to your site within four hours of receiving your order. Whether you require urgent assistance or you are simply planning ahead, we can help.

Our specialist hire division offers a range of packaged boiler hire units that can be installed and operational within a few hours of arriving on site, to replace failed heating systems or cover boiler breakdowns.

We run a 24/7 service, with assistance on hand round the clock should something go wrong with our equipment. Our range runs from 1.5kW units for a small surgery to 42kW for an entire wing. If you manage a healthcare site and would like a no obligation site survey, call us on 0800 211 611.

Hospitals, Clinics and GP Practices

We supply portable heating units to hospitals and clinics, where the priority is usually a system that can be brought in quickly and taken out again cleanly. We have nearly 60 years’ experience in the health sector, and we know breakdowns happen at the worst time.

Hospitals need a variety of purpose-built spaces, each with its own requirement. Indirect fired heaters suit wards and corridors where ventilation is limited and people are present, because the combustion air never mixes with the heated air. All buildings open to the public carry a duty of care to visitors, and one of our advisors can conduct a free site survey to establish what fits your building.

Where the failure is in the plant room rather than the space heating, temporary boiler hire for hospitals covers heating and hot water together. With thousands of units held across our depots, we aim to be on site within four hours. To discuss a heat for hire package, call us on 0800 211 611 or complete an enquiry form.
