Renewable Heating

Renewable Heating Solutions for Lancaster: Sustainable Comfort

As trusted experts in all aspects of heating, Wheildons is passionately committed to providing high-efficiency renewable energy solutions that drive down your reliance on fossil fuels and significantly reduce your annual energy bills. Since 1972, we have continually embraced new technologies, and today, our primary focus is on cutting-edge Ground Source Heating  and Air Source Heating systems, offering sustainable alternatives to conventional boiler technology.

Moving to a renewable heating system provides a wealth of benefits, not only for your wallet but also for the planet. By capturing natural energy from the ground and the air, these technologies drastically cut carbon dioxide emissions, giving you a smaller carbon footprint and genuine energy independence. We provide end-to-end service, covering system design, professional installation, and ongoing maintenance for both domestic and commercial clients across Lancaster and in the surrounding areas.

Our Core Renewable Heating Systems

We specialise in the most reliable and efficient heat pump technologies suitable for the diverse climate in the North West:

  • Ground Source Heating: These systems harness the consistent, ambient heat stored beneath the earth’s surface. They circulate water through underground pipes to extract this energy, providing highly stable and reliable heat for your home or business year-round. We are highly experienced in all installation technologies, including both horizontal ground loops and vertical boreholes.
  • Air Source Heating: These pumps absorb ambient heat from the outside air, even when temperatures drop significantly (as low as -15°C). This extracted heat is then used to warm your property and provide hot water, offering a flexible and highly accessible solution that doesn’t require complex groundworks.

We believe in the power of these technologies so much that our own Low Bentham office is fully equipped with operational renewable systems, including a Ground Source Heat Pump, allowing clients to see these technologies in action before making an investment.

Guaranteeing Quality and Compliance

Choosing a complex renewable system requires absolute confidence in your installer. Wheildons provides total assurance through our rigorous industry accreditations. We hold MCS (Microgeneration Certification Scheme) Accreditation for the installation of Heat Pumps. This accreditation ensures that our work meets robust quality standards and provides our customers with additional peace of mind that they are working to a recognised standard within the renewable energy industry.

Furthermore, we are proud members of the Renewable Energy Assurance Scheme (RECC), which reinforces our commitment to consumer protection and ethical trading. Our qualified engineers have extensive experience in designing systems that integrate seamlessly with your property, ensuring maximum efficiency, especially when paired with low-temperature distribution systems like underfloor heating.

The Path to Lower Bills and a Smaller Footprint

Many of our clients find that replacing older, inefficient electric or coal heating systems with a modern heat pump drastically lowers their fuel bills. While the initial investment in a heat pump is greater than a traditional boiler, the running cost savings, coupled with the potential to benefit from future governmental incentive schemes, make it an incredibly sensible long-term investment.

Our service includes full system design and detailed consultation to ensure you get the right technology—Ground Source or Air Source—for your specific property, terrain, and heating requirements. We assess your home’s insulation and heating distribution needs to guarantee your new renewable system delivers optimum comfort and efficiency.
