Providing Emergency Heating for an NHS Trust

The NHS trust had a complex engineering requirement to replace the existing plantroom on the hospital site. This is a significant project that will leave the facility’s existing boiler plant in a non-functional state for an extended period. The hospital has a requirement to provide essential heating and domestic hot water services to patients, staff, and clinical areas 24/7. Any loss of heat or hot water is simply not an option. The trust had a requirement for a reliable and fully compliant temporary heating solution.

The Survey

Our engineers carried out a comprehensive site survey prior to the works commencing. This included an assessment of the existing pipework infrastructure, load requirements, and the most suitable location for the temporary plant. Consideration was given to the safe storage of fuel, flue runs, and minimizing the disruption to the day-to-day running of the hospital. The survey revealed that a single 300kW trailer-mounted boiler unit, directly connected to the existing heating flow and return pipework, would provide more than adequate capacity to meet the site's requirements during the duration of the project.

The Solution

Rapid Boiler Hire delivered and commissioned a 300kW packaged boiler unit within 48 hours of the survey being completed. The unit was positioned externally adjacent to the plantroom, with our team handling all temporary pipework connections, controls integration, and commissioning in full compliance with HTM (Health Technical Memoranda) guidelines for NHS estates. The boiler ran continuously, providing consistent heating and hot water throughout the plantroom strip-out and new plant installation — with our engineers on call 24/7 for support.
