Boiler Hire | Andrews Sykes Blog

No off-season for our boilers!

Posted Date 11/07/2023

Despite it being the middle of summer, demand for boiler hire remains significant. Even with rising temperatures, there will always be a year-round requirement for replacement boilers – a notion which challenges the common misconception that they are only necessary during the colder months.

There are several factors contributing to the sustained demand for temporary boiler rental. Firstly, boilers are not solely responsible for heating indoor spaces. They also provide hot water for various industrial processes and manufacturing operations. Many businesses, such as restaurants, hotels, hospitals, and manufacturing facilities, rely heavily on hot water for their day-to-day operations. Without efficient boilers, these establishments would face significant disruptions and productivity losses, regardless of the season.

Fuel telemetry proves its worth for international home DIY retailer

Posted Date 04/04/2023

Being able to accurately monitor the fuel levels of a boiler, heater or pump can be a priceless safety net and prevent any number of potentially disastrous scenarios coming to pass.

By using fuel telemetry, our customers can easily track the remaining quantity of oil and receive emailed alerts once this drops below an agreed threshold.

Although not all customers require this technology, particularly on shorter projects, there are countless instances where it has proved incredibly beneficial.

Only last month, one of the UK’s most popular DIY companies approached us in search of a solution, and the peace of mind that a situation they had previously experienced would not happen again on our watch.

What happened in Europe this month? – Valentine’s Edition

Belgium

It’s the season of love, but we know that not everyone is a fan of Valentine’s Day. In some instances, self-care and personal growth must take priority. We’ve taken this somewhat literally in Belgium, with our progress in the region recently extending to opening a third depot in the country.

Our new property in Kortrijk gives us a wonderful platform from which to serve customers in the west of Belgium – as well as northern France – and we’re very confident that we’ll be able to make defining connections with a number of customers based in this expansive region. Love at first sight, or love at first site?

Andrews Boilers helps Bath hospital get out of hot water

Posted Date 08/02/2023

As the country’s leading specialist boiler hire supplier, our team is always prepared to respond to emergencies – especially when they relate to the hot water and heating needs of businesses nationwide.

On a cold Thursday afternoon, our dedicated contact centre received an enquiry after the district mains system split at a hospital in Bath. As a result, the entire ward had no heating, and it was getting colder and colder by the hour.

We understand that some industries – such as healthcare – are particularly vulnerable when unexpected breakdowns occur. That’s why our staff are trained to help customers overcome challenging situations as and when they arrive. This conscientiousness and attention to detail is what underpins the high level of service we provide, and the very reason we are first choice for many facilities management companies.

Thirty-unit boiler hire package maintains district heating system output

Posted Date 30/01/2023

District heating systems are seen as a gateway to lowering carbon emissions and increasing efficiency because of their ability to generate energy from a single location. Domestic hot water and heating can then be delivered to commercial and residential premises from a centralised source, negating the need for buildings to have independent systems.

Just over 500,000 properties are currently connected to district heating systems in the UK, and the expectation is that this figure will rise sharply over the coming years to help us achieve our target of reaching net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.

We knew last month had been a good one, but it has since come to light that it was our best December on record from a revenue perspective! Britain experienced snowfall, ice and bitter temperatures – and it’s fair to say our clients were cold. Although we didn’t have a choice in the weather, our loyal customers chose us to provide temporary heating units. We’ve always made it our target to provide a high level of service and deliver during sleet, snow, or shine, and that’s exactly what we did!

Andrews Boilers helps leading university with bioscience medicine research

Posted Date 03/01/2023

According to regulatory guidelines, educational leaders must ensure that student campus areas and facilities are at a certain temperature to help support their studies and maintain productivity. Although there is no legal minimum temperature in UK law, the World Health Organisation recommends a temperature of at least 16°C to ensure comfortable indoor working.

When a well-known university in the Midlands discovered that their current pipework had leaks within their district system, Andrews Boilers was urgently called to provide a temporary solution.
