Water pressure system in Bletchingley
This job was in a large house which had two open flued water heaters on the 1st floor providing hot water to the bathrooms.

The accumulator fed system discharges water […]
New Build in Purley.
Our client, Farnrise Construction, were building a new 5 bedroom house in Coulsdon. HWCH specified and installed a full ground floor underfloor heating system, Vaillant 624 system boiler and a manifolded upstairs radiator system.

The pipework had to run a long way through store cupboards etc and […]
