Important upgrades to your Richmond Park Heat Network

We’re working with our contractors Fairheat to upgrade components in your Richmond Park heat network. This involves replacing equipment in the boiler houses, re-insulating pipework, and upgrading the Heat Interface Units (HIUs) to provide heating and hot water in your home.

While the upgraded heat network will have a similar setup, certain elements within your homes will be upgraded so they will be more energy efficient.

The improvements

Instant Hot Water - Instead of storing hot water, the new HIUs will supply instant hot water when needed, avoiding unnecessary storage.

Upgraded radiator valves (TRVs) – These will ensure sufficient heat for every flat. They’ll run at an incoming temperature of 75°C and a target outlet temperature of 55°C during winter. The system will adjust radiator temperatures based on outside air conditions.

  • 75°C – Winter
  • 55°C - Summer
  • 55°C – Winter
  • 35°C – Summer

New Bath/Shower/Hot Water Valves New TMV (Thermostatic Mixer Valves) valves will be installed from hot water fed from the heat network. This means showers/baths/taps will operate at a reduced temperature without risk of scalding, in line with building regulations.
