When a school boiler fails it is never convenient. Usually it happens in winter… at the worst possible time and often with a building full of students who still need warm classrooms and hot water. That is exactly why school boiler hire is such a critical service for education sites across the UK.
At Celsius Hire we specialise in temporary boiler hire for schools, colleges, universities and academies. Whether it is an emergency breakdown or a planned upgrade, our job is simple. Keep the heating on and keep the school running.
Why Schools Choose Temporary Boiler Hire
School heating systems work hard. Long operating hours, large floor areas and constant demand for hot water mean aging boiler systems are likely to fail somewhere down the line. When a boiler room goes down the impact is immediate. Temporary boiler hire allows schools to stay operational without rushing permanent repairs or cancelling lessons. We’ve supported schools across the UK for numerous reasons:
- Emergency boiler breakdowns
- Planned maintenance or replacement works
- System upgrades and refurbishments
- Seasonal peak demand during winter
- Temporary classrooms or building extensions
- Additional heating in exam halls
A properly sized hire boiler keeps heating and hot water flowing across classrooms, sports halls, kitchens and washrooms with zero compromise on safety.
Boiler Hire Solutions Built for Education Sites
Every school is different. Older buildings often have tight plant rooms while modern campuses may need higher outputs to cover large footprints. Our approach is always site specific.
Celsius Hire supplies a wide range of temporary boilers for schools, from compact packaged units through to large containerised systems capable of heating entire sites.
What our school boiler hire includes:
– Packaged temporary boiler matched to your load requirements
– Delivery, installation and commissioning
– Temporary pipework and safe connections
– Fuel tanks and all required ancillaries
– Ongoing support and call out cover
Our engineers are used to working in live school environments and plan installations to minimise disruption and eliminate safety risks.
Case Study: Large School Boiler Breakdown Resolved Fast
Earlier this year we were called out to a large secondary school serving around one thousand pupils and staff. Their main boiler failed during half term with freezing temperatures forecast for the following week…with students due back on site there was no time to waste.
The challenge
The failed boiler supplied heating and hot water to the entire campus. Without a rapid solution the school faced potential closure.
Our response
We attended site quickly to assess the load and access routes
– A six hundred kilowatt containerised boiler was specified
– The unit was positioned securely away from student areas
– Pipework was routed safely into the existing plant room
The result: Heat and hot water were fully restored before the first bell on Monday morning.
