Commercial Boiler Installation for Offices

What type of boiler is used in an office?

Commercial boilers are used in office settings typically, which means that they have a larger output than a domestic boiler that you’d use at home. Commercial boilers are usually above 70kW in output.

These boilers come in a variety of different shapes and sizes, and can be powered through natural gas or electricity. 

It is also possible to install a domestic boiler in a building that would technically be a commercial building, such as an office, depending on the usage.

Can a commercial heating engineer install a heating system in an office?

Yes, a commercial heating engineer can install heating systems within an office. 

At Lacey Plumbing & Heating, our commercial heating engineers have years of experience installing, maintaining and providing certificates for your heating systems.

We will also always ensure the heating system throughout your office is safe for all who work in the building when using hot water and heating.

How does a boiler system work in an office?

A boiler in an office works by using a fuel source, such as natural gas or oil, to heat the water in the boiler.

Commercial boilers are designed to meet the specific heating demands of large office spaces, providing efficient and reliable heating. 

How long does it take to install a commercial boiler?

The quickest installations involve replacing the old boiler with a new one, but still keeping the same pipe work. This is a straight boiler swap and takes a day to install. 

If you wish to have your boiler moved elsewhere in the building, it may take longer to complete but a good heating company should provide you with timescales of projects before they start work. 

Why do offices need commercial boiler maintenance?

Unlike at-home boilers, office boilers are often pieces of equipment that are used through all times of the day and there are more people using the system.

Without regular maintenance, commercial boilers run the risk of breaking down unexpectedly during operating hours. Commercial boiler maintenance ensures that your property has continuous access to hot water and heating without the worry that it may fail on you. 

A poorly maintained boiler may not only disrupt your operational day, but it could also be unsafe. Damaged boilers can increase the risk of a gas leak, and poor ventilation may be a health hazard. However, if regular maintenance is carried out, then these problems can be spotted, reported and resolved at an early stage. 

How Lacey Plumbing & Heating have helped offices with boiler installation

At Lacey’s, we can help with regular servicing, gas safety checks and maintenance of your office boiler and heating system. 

We have installed new boilers in offices where they have broken down and are beyond economical repair. On occasion, these boilers will be a domestic size boiler and are a straightforward installation of a new modern energy efficient boiler. The new installation will have modern time controls or you can choose the latest smart control technology, which can be great for office installations. This means you can have the heating off over the weekend and activate it from your mobile, ready for a new work week.

Where you have an old heating system, we have removed and installed completely new large heating systems with multiple boilers and radiators. These would be surveyed, designed and specified by our heating surveyor.

Our commercial engineer has also changed large commercial KW boilers in pubs, offices and factories.

Whatever type of workplace you have, we can usually help out by starting with a site survey. We aim to get your workplace back up and running as quickly as possible and can work with you to ensure the least amount of downtime in the workplace and staff disruption. 

Following your installation, we can then service your boiler annually to ensure it complies with the manufacturer’s warranty requirements and health and safety for your workplace, such as an annual landlord gas safety check.
