Throwback to the Viessmann Vitodens 200 – W system Boiler we installed a couple of years ago. McDonald High recovery cylinder on hot water priority. Swep plate heat exchanger to enable the heating to be kept open vent in this large and old property with three mixed circuits.

1st day on heat pump 2nd fix in Upper Beeding was a productive one! 💪

The Poke Theory of Pumps 👉

Poke someone with a needle and it hurts. Poke them with a courgette, same push, barely a nudge.

Pumps work in a similar way. When only a few rads are calling, or it’s mild outside, the flow demand is small. The pump can hit near its max pressure, and everything circulates. That’s the needle.

At design conditions, at -2°C with everything calling for full flow, that pressure gets spread across a lot more flow. The pump slides down its curve, and the furthest circuit, the index circuit, gets starved. That’s the courgette.

That’s why a system can seem perfectly balanced in October and leave you with cold rooms in January. Either the delta T widens on the far emitters reducing mean water temperature and output, or they just don’t circulate at all.

The great RCD scandal of 2026… Actually it’s just Whitecliffe ones having issues. Managed to get a British General one from TLC, but I’m gonna replace this with a Proteus board and switch brands as this is happening all over the country. Lost half my day to this agg 😫

Is this the greatest way to explain how pumps work?! More flow, less pressure. More pressure, less flow. Every system has a duty point, or is it every system has a certain number of moles which need a certain level of whack to dispatch?!

What creative ways do you have to explain this ever elusive theory.

When Open Loop Goes Wrong

Step one: rip out the UFH pump and mixing valve so the heat pump runs the manifold directly. Textbook stuff. ✅

Step two: disconnect and unwire every single actuator on an 11-loop manifold. Feeling confident. 😎

Step three: the customer casually mentions they don’t actually want the conservatory heated. 😳

Step four: realise we have absolutely no idea which loops go where. 🤦‍♂️

“It’ll be two, maybe three loops,” I said. It was four. 😂

Every test meant shutting off loops, going home and coming back the next day to see what had gone cold. By the end I’d drawn a logic puzzle that would make Sherlock Holmes weep. 🧩🔍

We cracked it in the end, and the conservatory is officially unheated as requested. Lesson learned: In future - don’t unwire anything. 😫😂

Latest install 🔥🔥🔥 GF UFH in biscuit screed between joists. Radiators upstairs. 12kW .uk Arotherm Plus. 300 litre cylinder in basement along with rad valves, heating expansion vessel and filtration by , diverter valve by , UFH, radiators, .pro external pipework insulation.

That’s the shameless tagging done. Tbh, the biggest thanks from me go to the team. Projects this size in a busy business are always a team effort 🙏🏻

Fresh installation in Hove! We replaced an old boiler with a Vaillant aroTHERM plus 7kW air source heat pump and a 210L Vaillant unvented cylinder, backed by a 380% efficiency guarantee through our partners Heat Geek.

Converting from an old vented cylinder to mains pressure meant ditching the noisy shower pump while boosting hot water performance throughout the home. External pipework was neatly housed in black StrutFast trunking for a clean, low-maintenance finish ready for solar and battery integration.

⭐️ These are the reviews we live for.

When someone puts their trust in us to get their heating back up and running, we know just how important it is. It’s not just about fixing a boiler or an air source heat pump – it’s about getting a family’s home back to normal.

Reading reviews like this genuinely makes our day. Seeing a customer happy with the service they’ve received gives us exactly the same feeling that they have when everything is working again.

A huge thank you to Chris for taking the time to leave such kind words. It means the world to us and reminds us why we do what we do every single day.

If you’re looking for honest advice, quality workmanship and a company that genuinely cares, we’d love to help.
