All of our engineers have had years of training and are fully registered, meaning that you can rest assured that you’re in safe, reliable hands. 

Asset tagging is an identification system that can be used to locate underground assets. It is ideal for sites where conventional signage cannot be used, and provides a cost-effective and aesthetically pleasing alternative to traditional identification processes such as spray painting. Asset tagging is especially useful for equipment tracking, inventory control and loss prevention.

During an industrial boiler maintenance appointment, a Gas Safe registered engineer will start by removing the front casing of the boiler in order to inspect the parts inside. Not only will pipework and seals be examined, but the pressure and the boiler flue will also be checked. The burner and heat exchanger will be cleaned if there is a dirt build up as this can affect the efficiency of the boiler. The expansion vessel will also be tested to ensure that the system has a suitable pressure level; the engineer will listen out for any strange noises.

Commercial boiler servicing is absolutely essential to avoid the risk of galvanic corrosion that can occur as a result of inefficient cleaning. With regular maintenance work, you can prevent your boiler from suffering any damage and extend its service life.

Routine testing for legionella can help to prevent potential, occasionally fatal, outbreaks of Legionnaires’ disease. Alongside this, a legionella risk assessment helps to safeguard the health and wellbeing of residents, workers or visitors in any property. 

Our water treatment services include water monitoring, legionella control, tank cleaning and chlorination, risk assessments and the general management and maintenance of all hot and cold water services.

When choosing a commercial heating system, you should always consider factors such as the size of the space it needs to heat, the number of radiators in the property and the layout of the building. You also need to think about the size of the space that the boiler will be installed in, as there should always be around 20cm of space above and below the boiler, as well as 60cm around it. 

Our commercial heating services include installation, maintenance and repairs, replacements, reports and surveys and commissioning and upgrades.

Any unusual noises - such as clunking, ticking or whirring - are all signs that your commercial boiler could be in need of repair or maintenance work. If you also find that your energy bills are increasing for no apparent reason, this could be an indication that your boiler is becoming less efficient and needs to be inspected.

Regardless of whether anything is obviously wrong or not, your boiler should nonetheless be serviced once a year to ensure that there aren’t any underlying issues that you don’t know about.

Industrial gas heating engineers at Caledonian Heating & Plumbing Ltd are fully Gas Safe registered, which is a legal requirement for anyone working with gas in the UK. This registration ensures they meet strict safety and competency standards to safely install, maintain, and repair industrial gas heating systems. Choosing Gas Safe registered engineers guarantees compliance with regulations and peace of mind for your heating projects.

Caledonian Heating & Plumbing Ltd recommends annual servicing for commercial boilers. Regular servicing helps identify potential issues early, ensuring the system operates efficiently and safely. This proactive approach can extend the lifespan of the boiler, reduce the risk of unexpected breakdowns, and maintain compliance with safety regulations, ultimately protecting your business from costly repairs and downtime.

Regular water tank cleaning provides several important benefits. It helps remove sediment, debris, and harmful bacteria that can accumulate over time, improving the overall quality and safety of your water supply. Keeping the tank clean also prevents unpleasant tastes and odours, ensuring water remains fresh. Additionally, regular cleaning reduces the risk of corrosion and blockages within the system, which can prolong the lifespan of your water tanks and avoid costly repairs.

The length of a legionella risk assessment depends on the size and complexity of the water system being inspected. Typically, the assessment involves a thorough site survey to identify potential hazards, followed by an evaluation of the risks associated with the water system. For smaller properties, this process can take a few hours, while larger or more complex systems may require a full day or longer. Caledonian Heating & Plumbing Ltd ensures each assessment is detailed and compliant with health and safety regulations.

Legionella bacteria can cause Legionnaires' disease, a severe form of pneumonia, and Pontiac fever, a flu-like illness. These illnesses can be fatal, especially in vulnerable individuals such as the elderly or those with weakened immune systems. Legionella thrives in warm water environments, making poorly maintained water systems a potential breeding ground. Regular legionella testing and maintenance are crucial to prevent outbreaks and ensure the safety of building occupants.
