Introducing the 380kW Hybrid Boiler: Revolutionising Boiler Technology

Posted Date 20/11/2024

In today’s energy-conscious landscape, efficiency and adaptability are key to meeting operational demands while reducing costs. That’s why we’re proud to introduce the 380kW Hybrid Boiler, the first of its kind in the hire industry. Designed to deliver unparalleled performance and fuel savings, this boiler redefines what’s possible for hybrid heating solutions.

How It Works

At the heart of the 380kW Hybrid Boiler is its intelligent Hybrid control system; designed to maximise efficiency and minimise fuel consumption. By harnessing full electric capabilities, the boiler minimises fuel consumption during high-demand periods. The result? A fuel consumption reduction of up to 70% during high-load periods, delivering substantial savings without compromising performance.

Our schools lie at the very centre of our local communities, providing vital education and childcare which allows working parents to earn a living. This was put in jeopardy when recent heavy rain forced a primary school to close after its plant room flooded.

The school’s basement plant room had filled with 1.5 metres of water, submerging the boiler plant and other critical infrastructure like lighting and power systems. With no functional boilers, the school had no heating, hot water, or lighting – making it impossible to open safely to students.

When should I turn my boiler on?- Advice for winter 2023-2024

Posted Date 07/11/2023

With summer now a distant memory, it’s fair to say we have already experienced temperatures dropping across the UK.

Many experts believe that on average, people in the UK are more likely to turn the heating on when the temperature drops below 15 degrees outside. Of course, there is no specific day when this will happen, but it’s thought to typically occur around late September or October – although it was even later this year!

However, this can vary greatly depending on the individual and their home. In fact, it’s believed that most people habitually wait until the clocks go back, which on Sunday 29 October in 2023.

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?

What’s been happening in Europe this month?

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!

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.

Lincolnshire hospital kept operational thanks to Andrews’ boiler hire

As far as hospitals are concerned, there is no ideal opportunity or timeframe in which to carry out HVAC maintenance or similar. A boiler breaking down unexpectedly is therefore extremely unwelcome but when these things do happen, it’s important that you seek assistance from experts capable of overseeing this necessary transition.

This was the precise scenario a well-known Lincolnshire hospital found themselves in when their boiler arrangement required upgrading. A supplementary system was required to be in place between the original kit being taken offline and replaced, with the client estimating this could take up to 12 weeks.
