We chat with Kim from the Heat Academy. Kim was asked to help train the supervisors of a large plumbing and heating company who install the heating on large developments (New Builds). He was shocked that in this case it seemed the boiler manufacturer had designers specifying heating systems that will not work very well with modern boilers.
Heating system design is critical in this energy transition...does it help if the manufacturers are not fully understanding heating design themselves?
