It is reported that small to medium sized enterprises (SMEs) make up for over 50% of employment in the UK; which is why it is also concerning to read that 80% of new businesses – especially those that fall into the SME category – fail to survive the first year. If you’ve managed to survive the first 12 months, through hard work and determination, it is likely that you’re onto a winner. But did you know that as an SME in the private sector who has been trading for 12 months plus, you’re now eligible for a government grant to help with your commercial heating?

The government have opted to lend a supporting hand, to help ensure that these businesses – whether restaurants, cafes, factories or any other type of business – provide a comfortable environment for their staff and customers.

Through the Carbon Trust loan, SMEs are able to apply for a loan between £5,000 and £200,000 with 0% interest to pay towards improving their commercial heating. Because these loans are government funded and unsecured, there’s no reason why as an SME you shouldn’t apply. The process is straightforward and easy, and a response will be provided within 24hours. Here at Heaters Wholesale, we can even apply on your behalf to cut out any stress.

Those SMEs which are successful are able to pay the loan back over a period of four years, but benefit from the range of heating available through us straight away.

From radiant heating through to warm air heating and floor standing heaters; we provide a range of heating solutions suitable for all sized buildings. So whatever you’re looking for once you’ve received your grant, we’ll be able to supply and install it.

If you’re an SME which has been trading for 12 months or more and have been successful with your SME grant application, why not give your business more of a chance of attracting new customers by installing some of the fantastic commercial heating we here at Heaters Wholesale provide.

With the government raising the cost of VAT, selecting the right heating system for your factory can seem like an added expense you could do without. However, here at Heaters Wholesale we offer a competitively priced range of heating systems to suit your factory needs. Our experienced team members offer advice on which factory heating system is the most suitable for your factory, whether you are concerned about available floor space, cost effectiveness, or year round climate control – our team will find the most suitable heating system for you.

Many of our factory heating systems can save up to 20% in energy, making them cost effective as well as creating a suitable working environment for your employees.  By supplying energy efficient heating systems, less energy is needed to be used and therefore your operating costs are simultaneously reduced as well.

At Heaters wholesale we would recommend warm air heaters for a conventional factory setting. However, a consultation will be given to ascertain the ideal heating system for your factory. Warm air heaters are recommended for the factory work place largely due to the system’s ability to remove moisture, eliminate odour, and its duel function as an air conditioning unit and heater eradicates uncomfortable working conditions for the factory floor workers.

If space is your main concern then here at Heaters Wholesale we can provide suspended or ceiling mounted heating systems, enabling your company to keep essential floor space.  The systems which are mounted or suspended are remote operated, making the heating system easy to control from the factory floor. The reliability and maintenance of mounted systems is ensured by a remote lockout and reset option.

At Heaters we offer a wide range of heating systems, and we understand that choosing a factory heating unit for your company can be a daunting and intimidating task. This is why we offer advice to all our customers to make sure that they choose the ideal heating system for their company.

After sitting through one of the coldest Decembers the UK has seen for the last twenty years, many homeowners will have been relying heavily on their central heating systems and fires to keep warm. Unfortunately, a typical central heating system can be effective in some rooms and not in others, whilst a fire will only heat the room it’s in, leaving other parts of the house remaining cold. If this is a similar scenario to how you spent winter, then perhaps before the next wave of winter weather takes a grip on the UK you should consider installing radiant heating.

Here at Heaters Wholesale, we appreciate the benefits that come with your regular central heating systems, but we also appreciate and understand the advantages of installing a radiant heating system in your home or workplace – as this in an area we’ve specialised in for a number of years. Below is a snippet of the advantages that come with radiant heaters.

1.    A regular central heating system can only be set to one temperature for the whole property, and radiators can be unreliable. However due to easy to use thermostats which come as standard when installing radiant systems it is possible to alter the temperature in different rooms with this technology, allowing every room to be at a perfect and comfortable temperature for the occupants.

2.    Due to having various temperature settings allowing you to alter the temperature in various rooms, another advantage of radiant heating is that it is more energy efficient than regular heating, as the air doesn’t absorb the heat, instead the heat is evenly distributed throughout the room, keeping the heat in for longer.

3.    As there is a lack of moving hot air with this form of heating, dust particles and dirt that are usually spread with other heater systems aren’t – meaning those with allergies won’t be as affected.

Radiant heating is the ideal heating system to have in place if you want to evenly distribute hot air at a temperature which varies in each room. This form of heating is also ideal for larger premises as it keeps the area warmer for longer.

Ask any designer, whether they’re a web designer, architect or artist; they’ll tell you that planning is absolutely inseparable from the overall design process. And each project, whether a commissioned painting or a new website starts with a brief. Here at Heaters Wholesale, we view our industrial heating installations in much the same light, and as such our team devotes a huge amount of time and effort to planning the design considerations before we commence work on any project. In many respects, the very first considerations are more a matter of common sense rather than being dictated by overtly complex technical details.

Requirements and Expectations

Here at Heaters Wholesale we’re committed to delivering exactly what our clients want, and the first step is for us to get an idea of what this is. We’ll enquire as to the end result - how many rooms do you want to heat? How large are these spaces? What activity goes on within them? (Industrial, manufacturing, office work etc).

Once this has been answered, we’ll investigate the level of functionality you require, such as the way in which the system will be controlled and the level of efficiency you’re expecting. All of your answers will then be used to determine the kind of design we produce for your property.

On Site Consultation

Of course, in most instances involving large, unusual spaces, we’ll conduct an on-site evaluation and consultation to determine the actual layout and structural nature of the property. This will allow us to suggest the best materials and techniques for the installation process, as well as giving us a good idea of how the system will be laid out.

These considerations may seem complex and in depth, but they’re absolutely indispensible if you’re to receive the right industrial heating for your investment. Remember too that here at Heaters Wholesale we’ve been working in this industry for a number of years, so we’re used to carrying out both the design and installation processes quickly and competently.
