Plumbing & Heating

You will need to bring clean water into the house and deliver it to all the rooms in which it is needed - kitchen, utility rooms, bathrooms, toilets, en suite rooms and the garage.

Plumbing

You will need to bring clean water into the house and deliver it to all the rooms in which it is needed such as the kitchen, utility rooms, main bathroom, cloakrooms, en-suite rooms and perhaps even the garage. Most rooms will require both hot and cold water, delivered efficiently and with good pressure

You will also need to consider how to get rid of waste water including the soil system from the toilets you’re planning.

Installing Central Heating

Some thought must also be given as to how the water will be heated. The self build team, together with Wolseley Plumb Centers, can explain the options available to you and help you choose the boiler and radiators etc... you might need.  We can also talk to you about the benefits of renewable technology. If you plan to live in your house for a long time, then you might want to think about the benefits renewables can bring to your environment and also your pocket.

 

Renewable Heating

There are also many ways to plan your heating installation to be both cost effective and environmentally friendly. They include ideas such as installing Energy Efficient Boilers, under floor heating and ground source heat pumps. We can also advise you on Solar water heating systems which can provide almost all of your hot water during the summer months and about 50% year round. We can even tell you about geo-thermal and wind-power applications.
