Emergency Boiler Hire For Government And Public Sector Buildings
Many commercial business premises can temporarily close in the event of an on-site boiler failure
, and then resume trading once the boiler is fixed or replaced. But this is not true of buildings that local government and central government are responsible for within our towns and cities hospitals, prisons, schools, libraries, town and county halls, specialist clinics and surgeries etc. are expected to be open and fully functioning all-year-round. UK citizens (the electorate) rely on them, just as they rely on an uninterrupted heat and hot water supply being provided therein.
In reality, no matter how expensive or state-of-the-art a boiler is at a local or central government building, it could develop a temporary fault or completely breakdown at any time. And all boilers need to undergo service and maintenance from time-to-time.
The solution to always being able to cover any boiler down time is to forge a link with a boiler hire specialist who can supply and make operational a temporary boiler, and any necessary related equipment, in a matter of hours.
Reducing Boiler Down Time to an Absolute Minimum
Until the boiler specialist team arrives, most buildings could survive for a few hours without
heating, and the general public can usually be placated with a promise that help is on its way.
However, failure to provide an adequate supply of hot water during that time is not so acceptable for reasons of hygiene.
We all use much more hot water than we realise: in washroom facilities when washing hands,
when washing up cups in the office, when quickly cleaning surfaces or mopping a floor
A lack of hot water can even be life-threatening: cleaning surgical equipment within a hospital
is critical, for example. And with surgeons under more pressure than ever before to perform
numerous surgical procedures daily, the last thing they need is for hot water to be scarce or non-existent.
Examples of boiler failures at public buildings in recent years:
In December 2008, the boiler at Evington Leisure Centre in Leicestershire broke down, meaning the swimming pool there had to temporarily close. There was no hot water supply throughout the Centre at all for several hours - ThisIsLeicestershire.co.uk
Similar boiler fails occurred at public swimming pools in Weymouth (Dorset) in 2010 2, and in Harpenden (Hertfordshire) in October last year. Harpenden was closed for a week before a replacement boiler could be made operational - Herts24.co.uk
School closures due to boiler breakdowns occurred in Southampton (Jan 2010), Harpenden (Dec 2010), and Warrington (Jan 2012), where a lack of heat and hot water meant children were sent home. Parents were kept updated via the schools websites.
After a boiler breakdown at the headquarters of Angus Council in Forfar (Scotland) in January this year, workers were reduced to sitting at their desks wearing coats and hats, literally freezing at their work stations - TheCourier.co.uk
And perhaps most worryingly of all:
In February this year, it is claimed that heating problems at Nottingham's Queen's Medical Centre (run by Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust) left a ward so cold that patients and staff had to wear their coats - ThisIsNottingham.co.uk
Renting Boilers Ensures Service as Usual
In the event of a boiler breakdown, heating and plumbing engineers will be bought on to the site to find a quick solution, but it may take time to isolate the problem, determine a suitable resolution, and perhaps order parts.
In the interim, to ensure 'service as usual', government and public sector bodies and organisations can hire a boiler. This can be located on the outside of the building, thus not interfering with current maintenance, and can be connected to any hot water system quickly and efficiently, so down time is kept to a minimum and the comfort of customers and / or workforce is maintained.
