Make your system more efficient
All central heating systems
must have the correct type of controls in order to make the
boiler, cylinder and radiators
run as efficiently
as possible whilst giving you the hot water and heating
that you need when you need it.
Keeping your home warm and having hot water is important
to us all -but have you ever considered that it could
be costing you
far more than necessary? Technical Home Services can
provide a range of central heating controls to update your
system,
which mean more than just reliability. They are tried
and tested modern
features that offer many extra benefits and cost saving
efficiencies.Modifications can save you up to 20% on
fuel costs. {Depending on customers
original layout.} Selective room control will save money,
Energy Efficiency Best Practice from Technical Home Service.
Intelligent Controls
Ask about intelligent
controls, Control your system remotely!
We can install a full
range of controls designed to meet your needs.
Modern conventional systems should have the following controls:
- Programmer
(heating and hot water controls)
- Room thermostat
- Cylinder thermostat
- Wiring centre
- Motorised valves
- Pump
Heating Zones
- Install zones in your house,
have upstairs working separately to downstairs, have
the Lounge working on its own.
- Programmable room thermostats
independent room control
wired or wireless.
- Thermostatic radiator valves
(on selected radiators)
- Programmable Room thermostats
- All systems should have heating
control, and if TRV’S are installed a room
thermostat should also be installed. Building Regs & Best
Practice recommend Zone control.
Central Heating Radiators
We supply & replace
a high quality radiators which come fitted with or without
top grilles and side panels. The radiators
are supplied in an all white finish, the smooth surface of
the radiators are achieved by a unique two coat paint process
that ensures a long and hardwearing lifespan.
Designer Radiators
 You may decide to have a different style
radiator, for example we can supply a laddered towel rail
for the bathroom which
comes in a stunning chrome,white and gold finish, these
towel rails come in a variety of sizes to suit the size of
your
room.
For a different look to your room there are the old style
column radiators which come in a variety of finishes
and colours.
The radiators are more expensive as they are made to order
based on the classic cast iron design.
 We can advise, provide choice from traditional to futurist
designer
radiators, for those that would like creative and functional
solutions with
a daring aesthetic, radiators that fit seamlessly and unobtrusively
into
interiors and give a feeling of well-being.
Please ask for details.
Fanned raditors also available especially idea for the
conservatory or under kitchen units.
Chemical Cleaning and Protection of
Central Heating Systems
Professionally trained in Power Flushing & Chemical
Treatments
What is Power Flushing and why is it needed?
'POWER FLUSHING', 'JET FLUSHING' are all expressions used
[in the heating trade over many years] to denote the process
by
which heating systems are forcibly cleansed using water
at high velocity, but low pressure, so that no physical damage
is caused to the system. The process can be made even more
effective with the addition of powerful cleansing and mobilising
agents.
The objective is to restore systems with circulation
and boiler noise problems [caused by sludge and corrosion
deposits] o
optimum operation. Power flushing removes these deposits
and the problems that they cause.
These problems are not inevitable, and good design, care
and maintenance of a heating system will prevent and often
cure
them.
 Possible Symptoms
- Cold spots
- Poor circulation
- Noisy systems
- System blockages
- Expensive bills
- Dirty system water
- Is your heating system showing signs
of old age?
- Does it take ages to heat up?
- Are some radiators completely
or partially cold?
- Do radiators need frequent bleeding?
- Strange and unpleasant
noises come the boiler?
- Repeated pump failures?
Any of these symptoms could indicate that the system has
circulation and flow problems as a result of internal corrosion,
scale and sludge formation.
We offer a controlled chemical cleaning service for most domestic wet central
heating systems. A professional service that can chemically treat and flush clean
deposits from your system, with minimal disturbance and disruption to the normal
operation of the system, often without disconnecting the boiler or any radiators.
At the end of the flushing process, the system is full of water, and re-instatement
of the system to normal operation takes only a short while also we protect the
system when finished.
Central Heating Water Analysis
We undertake water analysis
tests which enables usrs to make an immediate determination
of the quality of water in a heating system, enabling us to understand the
causes of problems and to select the appropriate treatment to prevent future
system failures and call backs.
 We can indicate to customers whether a system has been properly
pre-commission cleaned, if corrosion is either taking place
or is likely to occur, whether
the system should be power flushed and whether it has been treated with
the correct
level of corrosion inhibitor. If power flushing is required, analysis can
confirm that all deposits and residues have been purged from
a system.
Wet central heating systems must be properly cleansed
and treated with corrosion inhibitor in order to protect
them from the otherwise inevitable decay as
system metals trend back to their natural state.
We advise and give solutions and present the customer with
choices.
Boiler Efficiency
The Government recently
produced an Energy White paper to make the heating industry
more energy efficient.
The main driver in the White Paper is changes to the Building
Regulations so that by 2005 all replacement and new boilers
installed will have to have an energy efficiency rating
of A or B, in accordance with SEDBUK (Seasonal Efficiency of
Domestic Boilers in the UK). Under current regulations,
gas
boilers
need to meet a minimum SAP (Standard Assessment Procedure)
of 78%.
SEDBUK efficiency bands range from A-G with Band
A having an efficiency of over 90% and band G falling below
70%. You

Peace of mind, lower fuel costs
We are fully qualified and
are able to advise you on our range of boilers and central
heating system improvement. Their modern features offer the
following:
- Up to 30% lower fuel bills and higher efficiency
- Environmentally
friendly patented technology
- Flexible siting - floor or
space saving wall mounted
- Stylish and unobtrusive design
in a range of sizes
- A range of ‘combination’ boilers
that give instant hot water without needing a hot water
cylinder
- Easy to use control packages that can add to
further savings
- Choice of new technology radiators that
gives instant heat with minimum use of fuel
 Which boiler
is right for you?
- Traditional Boiler
- Combination Boiler
- System
Boilers
- Condensing Boilers
Although boilers differ in size and
whether they stand on the floor,
hang on the
wall or sit
inside a fireplace,
probably
the most important difference
is the way they produce hot water
for washing, bathing and showering.
Traditional boilers and system
boilers heat water in
a storage cylinder,
typically sited in an airing
cupboard. Combination boilers heat water
instantaneously (via a special
heat exchanger inside the boiler) only when
you open a
hot tap.
Traditional boilers are the simplest
kind, with the fewest components
inside. System
boilers and combination
boilers
are more complex and tend to
be larger because they always
include the pump which circulates water
through
the radiators, and an expansion
vessel
to accommodate
the increase
in volume
when it gets hot.
Traditional and system boilers
with stored hot water systems
are best
suited to
family homes
where hot
water demand
is usually greatest. The
average combination boiler is best
suited to
single households or couples
with modest hot water needs.
How
modern technology is driving down fuel bills
The new condensing
boilers can save between 15-20%
on gas consumption
over standard
boilers. Compared
to boilers
over 10 years old,
the energy savings can
be as high as 35%. Modern boilers
convert up
to 93%
of the
gas burned
to heat.
This effectively extracts
more heat from the
gases to heat
the water
in the central
heating
system.
Only 7% of heat
is lost through the
flue, so you burn a lot less
gas for
the same
amount of heat.
