MHG boilers are a hit for Devon County Council

07 February, 2013

Schools and care homes in Devon have been re-boilered by MHG Heating.

Upgrading heating systems in 12 schools and residential care homes in Devon using gas-fired boilers from MHG Heating has reduced energy consumption and carbon footprint. MHG has also supplied solar-thermal cylinders to one of the properties. Looking ahead, consideration is being given to using MHG heat pumps in future projects for Devon County Council, potentially using Hybrid heat stations incorporating heat pump, solar buffer tank and gas-fired condensing boiler in one compact system.

The boilers already installed were specified by consultant NPS, which provides maintenance and small-works services to the council. They were installed by Integral UK.
