Real World Examples
London Luxury Hotel: Seamless Heating During Boiler Replacement

Challenge:
A prestigious 800-room hotel in central London with luxury suites, restaurants, conference facilities, and common areas needed to upgrade its old boiler system without disrupting service to guests. The hotel, located in Kensington, had limited outdoor space, so it required a compact temporary boiler solution.
Our Solution:
We delivered a 2MW packaged boiler, installed with a full fuel supply, 2MW plate heater exchangers, temporary pipework and remote monitoring via BMS. The temporary boiler was positioned at the rear of the hotel, maintaining a 20m distance to comply with clean air regulations. Despite winter conditions and limited space, we managed:
- Zero downtime
- Full guest comfort
- A clean transition to the upgraded system
- 24/7 oversight for complete peace of mind
Result:
The upgrade was completed with no interruption to the hotel’s hot water services, and the client avoided the high costs of guest complaints or room downtimes.

Swindon Hotel: Hot Water Restored the Same Day

Challenge:
On a Saturday morning, we received an urgent call from the general manager of an 83-bedroom hotel in Swindon. The hotel’s boilers had failed, threatening closure during peak occupancy. The main challenge was securing a transport company capable of arranging a HIAB delivery over the weekend.
Our Solution:
We responded immediately, deploying a 300kW packaged boiler, fuel tank, and all necessary hoses and connections within hours. Upon arrival, the team had to drain the flow and return header to the nearest isolation valves. Temporary hoses connected the temporary boiler to the client’s system. Despite the short notice:
- The hotel had hot water restored that same day
- Our team handled everything – delivery, installation, and commissioning
- We took over fuel management during the hire to avoid any future disruptions
Result:
The hotel stayed open, avoided cancellations, and kept guests happy.

Hotel Renovation in Buckinghamshire: Temporary Heating Keeps Project on Track

Challenge:
An M&E client needed a temporary boiler for a 50-bed hotel renovation in Buckinghamshire, following repeated plant failures that delayed drying progress. Due to scaffolding and ongoing construction, a temporary boiler solution would have to be positioned away from the building to allow space for external works.
Our Solution:
After a site survey, we deployed a 300kW packaged boiler with 120m of hose and a fuel supply, adapting to space constraints and providing heat through the hotel’s heat exchanger.
- Strategic installation avoided draining the full system
- Equipment placed 60m away from the plant room for maximum site flexibility
- Commissioned and heating within hours of delivery
Result:
The project resumed without delay, drying processes improved, and contractors could continue their work safely and efficiently.
