Central heating systems more than likely run from a source when combustion is occurring and in order for there to be fire, you need heat, oxygen and fuel. As a result, most central heating boilers or open fire will run on either gas, oil or solid fuel, therefore it is essential that fuel is readily available for the system so that direct heat can be given to a property whenever it is required, without the worry of not having any fuel.

At BHL, we supply a wide range of Fuel Storage solutions which compliment central heating systems across the UK, which include a series of oil tanks for use with oil boiler from a range of different manufacturers and depending on purpose both single skinned and bunded oil tanks are available for use with a heating system.

Fuel Storage has been a fundamental part of central heating systems and indeed may other systems for many a year but now Fuel Storage solutions are now more practical and attractive than ever. For instance, take our range of coal bunkers, no longer do you need an unattractive looking concrete block in the outer recesses of your household with a variety of plastic and galvanised steel coal bunkers, which will be the perfect home for a neat and tidy place for Fuel Storage of coal.

Water Treatment describes those processes used to make water more acceptable for a desired end use. The goal of all Water Treatment process is to remove existing contaminants in the water, or reduce the concentration of such contaminants so the water becomes fit for its desired use. One such us is cleaning and filter water within a central heating system in order to make the heating process more effective and efficient.

British Standard (BS7593) – Code of Practice for treatment of water in hot water central heating systems’. The purpose of BS7593 is to ensure awareness of potential problems, and of the remedies required to maintain efficiency and maximise the life of the hot water central heating system.

The standard also gives guidance on the preparation of the primary circuit of wet central heating systems prior to initial commissioning or re-commissioning following major remedial work and ongoing Water Treatment to ensure continued efficiency in operation. Although intended to cover domestic systems with up to 45kW heat output, it is recognised that their recommendations are also applicable to similar systems of higher heat output that require Water Treatment. We supply a wide range of Water Treatment products including:

  • Inhibitor - Inhibitor is a general purpose treatment for total protection against limescale and corrosion in all types of indirect central heating systems, including those containing aluminium. Will extend the life of the system, and ensure maximum efficiency and minimum fuel usage. Once added, Inhibitor never needs to be replaced unless the system is drained down.
  • Antifreeze - Antifreeze is a multipurpose inhibited antifreeze which is formulated to help give effective frost protection and control corrosion, limescale, boiler noise and hydrogen gasses in all types of indirect heating systems including those containing aluminium components. If minimum levels are maintained the Antifreeze ensures a permanent protection and does not need to be replaced.
  • Heating Cleaner - At BHL our range of Heating Cleaner including boiler descaler, sludge remover and central heating cleaner from leading manufacturers including Fernox and Sentinel, helps keep your boiler working when you need it most, keeping you warm through the winter.
  • Lime Scale Removal - Lime scale Removal is used for removing limescale from any type of water heater to restore its efficiency. It is safe to use with steel, stainless steel, cast iron, copper, brass, PVC, ABS rubber polythene and most plastic pipework. Limescale Removal is a powerful acid limescale remover and can dissolve up to 50% of its own weight of limescale, it is also corrosion inhibited.
  • Boiler Noise - Boiler Noise is usually the result of limescale deposition within the heat exchanger of a boiler. This condition is worsened if magnetite is also present in the system, as this combines with the limescale to form a much harder deposit.
  • Leak Sealer - Leaks in central heating water systems can result from external frost damage, dry solder joints, accidental perforation during maintenance or decoration, or internal corrosion.
  • Disinfectant - Disinfection is necessary to protect against bacterial and micro-biological contamination in central heating and chilled water systems as well as underfloor heating and renewable applications. BHL offers a range of Disinfect products which are effective in penetrating and removing bio-films in the control of Legionella and Pseudomonas.
  • Water Test Kit - Water Test Kits are a postal service for analysis of central heating system water which has been designed to provide the installer or system owner with rapid validation of correct cleaning, flushing and treatment with Inhibitor. It can be used during new system commissioning or during commissioning of existing systems after component replacement.
  • Heating Filter - A Heating Filter is a proven high efficiency product designed to tackle all central heating systems, removing virtually 100% of suspended magnetic debris.
  • Power Flushing - Power Flushing provides you with faster, easier cleaning for problematic, dirty heating systems, quickly helping restore optimum efficiency. Using Power Flushing with sludge remover can remove magnetite sludge clearly, safely, rapidly and efficiently from central heating systems.
  • Scale Inhibitor - Scale Inhibitors feature a wide variety of products currently available for clamping, wrapping around or inserting into water pipes to inhibit water hardness scale. These can be magnetic, electrolytic or electronic devices and do not change the chemical composition of the water, although a physical change may take place.
  • Polyphosphate - The Polyphosphate unit provides protection for domestic hot water systems from the effects of scale deposition. It works by proportionally blending a minute amount of Polyphosphate into the system water.
  • Thermal Fluid - The term Thermal Fluid consists of two words; ‘thermal’ meaning heat, and ‘fluids’, which refers to liquids, gases and vapours. Pressure, volume and density all play an important role in Thermal Fluids. Temperature, flow rate, phase-change and chemical reactions may also be important in a thermal fluids context. There are two types of Thermal Fluid: Solar Fluid and Heat Pump Fluid
  • Condensate Neutraliser - Condensate Neutraliser is an in-line unit containing a special media that will neutralise the acidic waste from condensing boilers. The flow of condensate through the unit is manipulated to achieve optimum contact with media ensuring effective neutralisation.

    Shower is an area in which one bathes underneath a spray of water. Looking at the origins of Showering, the original showers were neither indoor structures nor man-made, but were common natural formations such as waterfalls. The falling water rinsed the bathers completely clean and was more efficient than bathing in a traditional basin.

    The first group of people to have Showering that would be recognisable to a modern person were the ancient Greeks. Their aqueducts and sewage systems made of lead pipes allowed water to be pumped both into and out of large communal shower rooms used by elites and common citizens alike.

    Despite the innovations in plumbing and water treatment, the domestic shower and Showering is much the same as it was in the late 19th century. The two most commonly found types of showers are the stall shower and the shower/bathtub. The former is solely a shower shielded by a glass door like many shower enclosures, for privacy and to contain any stray water droplets. The latter can be used to take a bath or a shower and is shielded by a sliding shower curtain attached to a shower rail, once again for privacy and water containment. Though most domestic units have a single overhead shower head, more elaborate multi-head showers can be found in custom bathrooms.

    Generally, a Shower Cubicle will be a part of your bathroom for years to come and buying one will be an investment into your house. Showers and appropriate shower accessories can provide not only a functional use within the household, but also an aesthetically pleasing view, which will more often than not add value to your property. Furthermore, designed to suit all tastes and budgets, selecting the right Shower Tray with your shower will provide your shower enclosure with a good solid foundation. If you are purchasing a shower enclosure that does not come complete with a dedicated Shower Tray then we recommend that you select the appropriate Shower Tray to ensure both water-tightness and longevity.

    Showering and shower usage in the latter half of the 20th century has skyrocketed. Personal hygiene became a primary concern, and bathing every day or multiple days a week is common among Western cultures. Showering is generally faster than bathing and can use less water.

    This quick and efficient concept explains its popularity as it fits in with the fast-paced lifestyles of modern people. In addition, Showering, as opposed to taking a bath, is recommended for older people because it reduces the risk of injury related to falling, especially when a shower seat is installed.  Therefore, do not hesitate to bring your household into the 21st century and order a brand new Showering system online at BHL.

    Showers and Shower Equipment are available to Buy online from BHL. We supply a wide range of Showering and Accessories online from leading manufacturers including; Mira, Aqualisa, Coram and Bristan.

    Storage Heater is an electrical home appliance which stores thermal energy during the evening, or at night when base load electricity is available at a lower cost, and releases the heat during the day as required. Storage Heaters are usually used in conjunction with a two-tariff electricity meter, which records seperately the electricity used during the off-peak period so that it can be billed at a lower rate.

    In order to enjoy the lower rates, the house must be on a special electricity tariff. In most countries, Storage Heaters are only economical (compared to other forms of heating) when employed with such a special tariff, in the United Kingdom, the Economy 7 tariff is appropriate.

    Manual Storage Heaters usually have two controls – a charge control called input, which controls the amount of heat stored, and the draught control called output, which controls the rate at which the heat is released. These controls may be controlled by the user, or may operate automatically once the user selects the target room temperature on a thermostat.

    Storage Heaters may also incorporate an electric heater, utilising either resistance heaters or heat pumps, which can be used to increase heat ouput. Such added heating is expensive, as it occurs during the high-tariff time of day.

    Storage Heaters allow electrical heating, which is often more expensive than equivalent gas or oil fired heating systems, to be used without as much operating cost. If the Storage Heater is incorporated into the building’s floorplan, they take up less area than a gas or oil fired heating system. Users of gas central heating and some other systems often turn off the heating during the night as an economy measure, with the result that the house is cold at night and early morning, but because night Storage Heaters are on at night, the house is still warm at those times.

    Automatic Storage HeatersThe damper may be pre-set to open automatically each day if required when using an Automatic Storage Heater. Setting the output control at settings other than minimum results in an automatic boost of heat. A high setting on the output control knob causes the damper to open early afternoon/evening, conversely a lower setting causes it to open later.  For a given setting of the output control, the colder the weather (and, consequently, the greater the charge taken automatically by the heater) the later the damper will open. Conversely, for a lower charge input (in milder weather) the earlier the damper will open for a given room’s temperature boost setting.

    Combination Storage HeatersCombi Storage Heaters have a convector heater built into the unit, in addition to a standard storage heater system. it means that the Combi Storage Heater will be used to provide the bulk of the heat with instant top using the convector heater

    Fan Storage HeatersFan Storage Heaters are sophisticated at using off peak electricity. Instead of automatically releasing the heat by convection the next day, a Fan Storage Heater incorporates a silent fan as the name suggests, which takes air through the heater and discharges it through the vent at the base of the heater at a time that suits the user, just like other storage heaters.

    Panel Heater, also known as a radiant panel heater, produces heat by transfer of radiant heat, usually by infrared waves. They are lightweight, allowing the unit to be mounted easily and installed to radiate heat in any direction. There is virtually no decrease in the output of the Panel Heater as it agea. Due to the fact that about 80 percent of the energy is absorbed by the Panel material, there is a reduction in the cost required to run the unit. The back panel of the unit is also insulated to prevent heat loss.

    Solar Panels are a form of active solar power, a description that highlights how solar panels make use of the sun’s energy: solar panels harvest sunlight and exchange it to electricity. Solar Cells, or photovoltaic cells are arranged in a grid-like pattern on the surface of the solar panel, which collect sunlight through sunlight during daylight hours.

    Solar energy originates in the depths of the sun. The Sun endures a continuous stream of thermonuclear explosions as hydrogen atoms are fused into helium atoms. We come across the resultant energy as radiation that hits the surface of the earth. Solar panels such as flat plate collectors and evacuated tube collectors, convert this solar radiation into useable electrical energy and store them in batteries for our use. Enough solar radiation strikes the earth every day to meet Earth’s energy requirements for an entire year. Solar panels help us harvest this energy and convert it into useable energy to meet the everyday needs of modern life as we know it today.

    Solar panels are usually manufactured using crystalline silicon or the more expensive gallium arsenide, which is produced exclusively for use in photovoltaic solar cells. In direct sunlight at the surface of the equator, a maximally efficient photovoltaic cell about 1/5m in diameter creates a current of approximately 2 amps at 2 volts, however, as a result of the Earth’s atmosphere interference, terran solar panels will never perform as well as solar panels exposed directly to the sun’s rays (such as space-based panels on satellites).

    Solar Kits are essential in the context of ever rising energy costs, climate change and changing legislation, the need for a heating and hot water technology that is future proof, cost effective and able to use an unlimited, sustainable source of energy is essential.

    Every year the sun provides over 8000 times as much energy as we consume worldwide and in the UK alone we receive between 900 and 1200kWh of energy per metre square of land per year. On average, every home spends 20-25% of its combined annual energy bills on water heating. A well designed Solar Hot Water Kit can provide almost all the hot water for a home during the summer months and around 50-60% year round. This is why Solar Hot Water Kits are one of the most cost effective and environmentally friendly renewable energy solutions available, reducing fuel bills and building carbon dioxide emissions.

    Whenever fossil fuels such as coal, oil or gas are burnt, carbon dioxide is released. CO2 is the principal contributor to the green-house effect which is leading to long term climate change. However, a Solar Hot Water Kit can provide as much as 60% of a building’s annual hot water demand from renewable energy as building carbon emission can be significantly reduced. Using Solar Hot Water Kits means that running costs compared with traditional fossil fuelled water heating systems can be reduced. More significantly, using free energy from the environment future proofs the Solar Hot Water Kits against fossil fuels as they become ever more scarce and prices inevitably rise.

     

    As with any central heating or domestic hot water system, regardless of it being either conventional or renewable, it is essential that several controls and accessories are used in order to achieve the optimum usage out of the whole system so that it runs efficiently.  The right controls will keep your home at the perfect temperature and save energy, which in the long term will save you money and reduce the impact you make on the environment. Key components of a Solar system are vital in the overall efficient operation of it, therefore, here at BHL we supply a wide variety of supplies for solar systems including; solar sensorssolar heat exchangerssolar pump stations and solar pipe.

    Solar Cylinders are designed for use with a boiler to provide auxiliary hot water during periods of low solar gain. The lower coil or heater exchanger will be connected to the solar hot water system with the upper connecting to the central heating system. the Solar Panels transfer heat energy from sun light to a thermal fluid within the solar hot water system. When the thermal fluid is hotter than the water within the hot water cylinder a pump activates pumping the fluid throught the heat exchanger where the heat passes to the water, via conduction, heating your Domestic Hot Water.

    As a result from all the required components of a solar heating system, BHL have provided a simple, stress-free solution by provide a comprehensive stock range of Solar Kits, Solar Hot Water Kits and Solar PV Kits. By purchasing one of these kits from our product range you will be up and ready to go and start saving massively on your annual heating bills, which you will notice straight from installation.
