With many blocks having been built in the 1930s, 60s or 70s, energy centres or boiler rooms age and can become very inefficient. Typically located in the middle of an estate, aging communal pipework can result in increasing heat loss and spiralling bills.

Our team at Altus PM have a long track record of over 40 years of addressing these often complex problems.

Remedies of course include boiler repairs but can also necessitate boiler replacement (work that generally is scheduled in the summer and requires temporary replacement solutions while it is undertaken), the replacement of pipework, or the installation of independent or communal boilers.

Correct operation and maintenance are essential to ensure the network can continue to deliver heat and hot water for its full lifespan. Quality control systems are vital to ensure leaks and bursts do not happen and minimise disruption to end users.

We have a robust process in place when we take on an energy centre which ensures the required due diligence is carried out and setup is in place and compliant and offer an unrivalled service, when it comes to operating and maintaining energy centres. We manage over 75 plant rooms and energy centres across London.
