Case Study

Temporary Heating Solution for a Plumbers and Sanitaryware Merchants Showroom

Overview

Client: Plumbers and Sanitaryware Merchants Showroom

Industry: Plumbing

Project Overview: Temporary Heating Solution

Background

A well-known plumbers and sanitaryware merchants showroom faced an unexpected crisis when their heating system failed in the middle of the busy autumn season. The heating breakdown occurred at a critical time, with the showroom needing to remain fully operational and comfortable for customers browsing products. Without a reliable heating source, the cold indoor temperatures posed a risk of driving customers away and negatively impacting sales.

Challenge

The showroom needed an urgent, temporary heating solution to maintain a comfortable environment for both staff and customers. The replacement system had to deliver sufficient heat to ensure the large showroom area remained warm and inviting. Given the size of the showroom, the heating solution had to be powerful, yet easy to deploy and manage. Additionally, the temporary heating unit had to operate safely outdoors without generating fumes or compromising air quality inside the showroom. A reliable fuel supply was also critical to ensure continuous heating during the forthcoming peak winter period until the permanent heating system could be repaired.

Solution

Newsome, known for their expertise in temperature control, quickly assessed the showroom’s requirements and proposed the installation of a 100 kW indirect fired heater. This heater was paired with a dedicated fuel tank to ensure uninterrupted operation. The indirect-fired design of the heater was chosen for its ability to deliver clean, fume-free heat, which was essential for an indoor environment like the showroom where air quality needed to be maintained.

The 100 kW heater was deployed rapidly and strategically positioned outside to ensure even distribution of warm air throughout the showroom. Its high heating capacity ensured that the entire space was sufficiently warmed, creating a comfortable atmosphere for customers. Newsome’s team also handled the installation of a secure fuel tank, ensuring that the heater could run continuously without frequent refuelling, providing peace of mind to the showroom staff.

Technical Details

The 100 kW indirect fired heater used by Newsome was equipped with advanced combustion technology to maximise efficiency and maintain consistent heat output. The indirect-fired design separated the combustion process from the air distribution, ensuring that only clean, heated air was supplied and circulated within the showroom. This feature was critical in keeping the indoor air quality high for both staff and customers.

The unit was designed for ease of deployment and included a robust heat exchanger and a powerful fan for efficient heat transfer. The fuel tank supplied was matched to the heater’s consumption rate, minimising the need for frequent refuelling. Safety features such as spill containment and overfill protection ensured compliance with environmental and safety regulations.

Result

Thanks to Newsome’s rapid response and expertise, the plumbers and sanitaryware showroom was able to continue operations without disruption. The 100 kW indirect fired heater provided reliable, high-capacity heating, keeping the showroom warm and comfortable for customers during the busy sales season. The temporary solution worked seamlessly, ensuring that sales were not affected by the heating failure. Newsome’s timely intervention ensured that the showroom remained open and fully functional, with the heating system continuing to perform efficiently until the permanent repairs were completed.
