St George’s Church in Preshute required a modern heating upgrade to provide efficient warmth across multiple zones while respecting the building’s historic aesthetic and character. SPC worked with installer AHS Swindon Ltd to design and supply a tailored heating package featuring Belgravia Supreme Fan Convectors in carefully selected finishes, delivering reliable, energy-efficient heating throughout the church whilst maintaining visual harmony with the interior.
Our Heating Solution
SPC’s Area Sales Manager, Chris Ward, conducted a site survey with the installer and church representatives to assess the heating requirements and determine which units would be best suited to the environment. Following this, SPC specified Belgravia Supreme Fan Convectors configured to suit the distinct requirements of each worship and ancillary space within the church.
All units were equipped with energy-efficient ECM motors and low water temperature cut-out thermostats, ensuring reliable operation whilst supporting reduced energy consumption. The selection included bespoke RAL 8007 Fawn Brown finishes for key areas, chosen to complement the church’s historic interior.
