Not Sure What Heating System Is Right for Your Home?
Choosing a heating system is not always as simple as replacing one appliance with another.
Depending on your property, budget and priorities, the most appropriate solution could be a modern gas boiler, an air source heat pump, an air to air heating and cooling system, or improvements to the heating system you already have.
Our engineers can assess your property and explain the practical differences between the available options, including installation requirements, performance estimates, controls and fuel cost considerations.
We will not recommend a heat pump simply because it’s new and exciting, or a boiler simply because that is what was there before.
Our job is to help you understand which solution makes sense for your home and budget.
Common Problems We Can Help Solve
At Thermatek Heating, our purpose is simple: to find the right solution for our customers. Whether you’re dealing with a heating problem, looking to improve comfort or efficiency, or planning an upgrade to your home, we take the time to understand what you need and recommend a solution that genuinely works for you. With experienced local engineers, high standards of workmanship and a problem-solving approach, we’re proud to provide solutions our customers can rely on.
Boiler faults, control problems, pumps, valves and heating-system faults diagnosed by experienced heating engineers.
We can assess whether repair remains sensible or whether replacement should be considered. We can even provide a fuel cost comparison to help you decide if transitioning away from fossil fuels and into low carbon, renewable heating source would work for your home.
We can investigate controls, system temperatures, radiator performance and alternative heating technologies.
We can investigate controls, system temperatures, radiator performance and alternative heating technologies.
Poor circulation, sludge, balancing problems, controls or system design may all contribute.
Rather than repeatedly treating the symptom, we aim to identify the underlying cause. This can be any number of things both inside your boiler or heat pump and externally on your heating system itself. We can track and trace the source of the pressure loss, make repairs and get everything back together in no time.
Thinking About an Air Source Heat Pump?
A successful installation involves considerably more than selecting a heat pump from a brochure. The heating requirement of the property needs to be calculated, radiators or other emitters assessed, suitable flow temperatures established and the hot water requirement considered.
As an MCS-certified installer, Thermatek Heating can design and install complete air-source heat-pump systems for homes across Edinburgh and the Lothians.
Heating & Cooling for Modern Homes
Modern air conditioning is effectively an air to air heat pump, providing controlled cooling during warm weather and efficient heating during colder months.
These systems can be particularly effective in bedrooms, loft conversions, home offices, garden rooms and highly glazed extensions.
We provide professional Refcom F-Gas registered air conditioning installation across Edinburgh and the Lothians, including system sizing, installation and commissioning.
Heating Edinburgh's Older and Newer Homes
Edinburgh's historic and diverse architecture presents very different heating challenges from one property to another. Traditional stone tenements may have high heat loss, limited, internal storage space, external individually owned space and existing heating systems, typically installed over many decades. Modern apartments and extensions can have very different problems, including overheating and limited plant space. Our approach is therefore based on the property rather than applying the same "one size fits all" solution everywhere. We work across Edinburgh's traditional and modern housing stock and consider factors including building construction, insulation, available space, hot-water demand, existing pipework and how the property is actually used.
