Nationwide Church Heating Specialists

At Mellor & Mottram, we specialise in providing tailored heating solutions for churches, ensuring that the comfort of congregations is maintained while preserving the architectural integrity of historic buildings. Whether working with Grade I listed churches, modern chapels, or community halls, we are committed to delivering energy-efficient, effective heating systems designed to meet the specific needs of each building, while carefully considering the unique characteristics of the church structure.

Our heating solutions are designed to maintain an even, comfortable temperature while reducing energy consumption, providing long-term value for churches across Stoke-on-Trent and the surrounding areas.

We offer a range of church heating systems, each chosen for its effectiveness, efficiency, and suitability to a variety of church designs:

Underfloor Heating

Underfloor heating is an ideal solution for churches seeking an energy-efficient and discreet heating system. By installing a network of pipes beneath the floor, warm water circulates evenly through the church, ensuring a comfortable temperature throughout the space. This system is particularly well-suited for churches with large, open areas where maintaining even heat distribution can be a challenge.

The low-profile nature of underfloor heating means there’s no disruption to the church’s aesthetic appeal, with no visible radiators or pipes to interfere with the architectural beauty of the building. This system can be easily adapted to both modern and historic churches and is a highly energy-efficient way to heat large spaces without compromising comfort.

Air Source Heat Pumps

For churches looking for a more sustainable option, air source heat pumps offer a renewable solution that heats your building efficiently by extracting warmth from the air outside.

These systems are increasingly popular for churches aiming to reduce their carbon footprint while providing consistent warmth. Air source heat pumps work by transferring heat from outside air into the building, and because they operate at a fraction of the energy cost of traditional heating methods, they are an excellent choice for energy-conscious churches. While the initial installation can be more complex, the long-term savings on energy bills and the environmental benefits make them a worthwhile investment for any church committed to sustainability.

Traditional Wet Systems

Traditional wet systems, which circulate hot water through radiators or pipes, have been a tried and trusted solution for church heating for many years. These systems are particularly effective in churches with existing pipework that remains in good condition.

At Mellor & Mottram, we have installed these systems at several churches, such as St James Church in Milrow and St Andrew’s Church in Dearnley, adapting the technology to meet the specific needs of each building. These systems can be powered by modern gas boilers, including condensing units that provide higher efficiency and better control, or by oil-fired boilers where mains gas is unavailable. With reliable, cost-effective heating solutions, traditional wet systems offer long-term value and comfort for congregations.

Warm Air Systems

Warm air systems are an excellent option for larger churches or those with open spaces such as modern chapels or community halls. These systems work by heating the air and circulating it throughout the building, providing immediate and uniform warmth.

At Mellor & Mottram, we provide both gas-fuelled warm air systems and air source systems, such as those we installed at Newquay Christian Centre. Warm air systems are particularly effective in large spaces with high ceilings, where other heating systems might struggle to maintain even heat distribution. With the flexibility to heat the space quickly and efficiently, warm air systems are ideal for churches that need a solution that delivers instant warmth while being easy to maintain.

Fan Convector Systems

WFor newer church buildings or halls that require a highly controllable and flexible heating system, fan convectors are a great option. These units work by drawing in cold air and passing it over heated coils before circulating the warm air back into the room.

This method allows for precise control over the temperature, making it ideal for spaces where the heating requirements might change frequently. Fan convectors are particularly suitable for modern church buildings and halls, where a more flexible heating solution is required to suit varying occupancy levels and space usage. They are efficient, quick to respond to changes in temperature, and easy to maintain, offering effective warmth without the need for complex installation.

Modern Heating Solutions for Heritage Buildings

Our systems are designed with energy efficiency at the forefront. Many of the boilers we install are modern, condensing units that offer superior control and efficiency. We also work with sophisticated control systems that include features like “intelligent” optimum start facilities, which learn how long it takes to heat the building and activate the system at the most efficient time. For larger churches, we may install dual thermostats and alternating boiler systems to ensure a consistent, comfortable temperature throughout the building while optimising energy use.
