St Peter's church, Terwick
The service on Christmas Day went very well and the heating was much admired and enjoyed! When I turned on the heaters at about 9.10am the temperature in the church was 10 degrees (much warmer than normal, of course) and when the service finished it was 15.5 degrees.
Who said it doesn't warm the building as well?!!!
On a normal December day, of course, it would not have been quite so good I am sure. Anyway, thank you for enabling us to have a warm, worry-free day; no descending the boiler room steps and dangling down a sump to change the water level in the boiler room. What a joy!
Now we just need the electrician to come back and finish off and then we can consider the decommissioning of the boiler room and the removal of the oil tank and then the whole job will be done. Yippee!

Warming your congregation, not heating the building
Fabric Commissions guiding principle No. 1
This involves, for example, maintaining gutters and roofs to avoid damp, draught-proofing doors, lagging pipes, insulating lofts, having broken windows repaired, zoning the heating, and setting the heating controls correctly. In this way, heat loss can be significantly reduced, reducing the demand for heat input from the heating system, and cutting energy use. It can also mean behavioural change; encouraging people to sit away from problematic draughts, turning off heaters and lights that aren’t needed, and keeping track of energy use more closely, in order to spot any waste.
How Cooltouch Heaters can help
We are not really able to help with these fundamental energy management tasks other than to help point out where heat loss is occurring when undertaking a site visit and demonstration.
