Church Heating Installation Services

From initial heating specification and system design to installation, commissioning and ongoing support, Herschel provides a complete specialist heating service for churches and heritage buildings with installation.

Heating a church or heritage building is not simply a matter of selecting a heater. Every building has a different layout, pattern of use, electrical supply and collection of historic features. The heating system must provide comfortable warmth where and when it is needed, while respecting the character and fabric of the building.

Whether you are replacing an ageing boiler, working towards net zero or trying to make a cold church more welcoming, we will help you identify a practical heating solution for your building.

Herschel Heritage Specification Service

Trusted Church Heating Services from Herschel Infrared

Following specification assessment and design, Herschel will prepare a proposal for the recommended heating system. The proposal brings together the recommended heaters and the proposed heater locations, with visual representations where appropriate.

Our specialist church heating installation process

Installing heating in a church requires more than general electrical knowledge.

The project may involve working at height, specialist access equipment, respecting historic interiors, restricted fixing locations and careful coordination with church representatives and other professional advisers.

With unrivalled knowledge and experience in installation of Herschel Infrared church heating systems, our specialist trained, in-house heritage installation teams will ensure a smooth installation from start to finish.

Heater heights, orientation, spacing and control arrangements will have been agreed during the heritage specification process. These factors all influence the comfort delivered by the finished system.

Herschel’s expert heritage installation team will ensure that the system is installed precisely in accordance with the agreed heating design. This includes confirmation of heater and control positions, coordination of specialist access equipment, where required, and full electrical testing.

Once the heating system is installed, the heating system must be configured around the church and its use. This is particularly important where the church has different zones, event types or occupancy patterns.

Our in-house church heating installation service extends to commissioning of the system. Commissioning includes confirming communication between the heaters and controls, checking individual heater zones, setting initial heating schedules and operational handover.

In addition, the team can demonstrate the system to nominated church representatives and explain how schedules and settings can be adjusted. This helps the church begin using the system confidently rather than being left to determine the correct settings alone.
