Cornish Leisure Centre makes huge savings with replacement boilers


It was good to read at Eco Showcase that a large community leisure centre in Cornwall will save thousands each year after replacing heating boilers dating back to the 1970's with new condensing fast recovery water heaters.

One system will provide hot water for the showers and other hot water usage whilst the second system will heat the swimming pool itself.

The Centre reckon, based on usage to date, that the new systems will save them in the region of £8000 on their Winter fuel bills and £4000 in the Summer.

Not a renewable energy solution but certainly a step in the right direction towards energy conservation.

Well done!

Of course, a solar panel installation is a great way of providing free energy for heating your own swimming pool or hot tub. Visit Solar Panel Quoter now to get your own online quote in minutes.
