Renewable heating systems

Aveat offers a wide range of sustainable solutions to reduce the carbon footprint of your build.

As sustainability becomes a central requirement for modern developments, mechanical systems play a critical role in reducing energy use, lowering carbon emissions, and improving the long-term performance of your site.

Aveat specialises in practical, low-carbon heating and HVAC solutions that help our clients meet environmental targets without adding complexity to the build.

Working across residential, commercial, and refurbishment projects throughout London and the South East, we source and install renewable energy systems that are compliant, cost-effective, and designed to support your ESG commitments.

Our capabilities

Air source heat pumps (ASHPs)

Ideal for virtually all schemes – including residential blocks, offices, and mixed-use spaces – air source and ground source heat pumps offer lower carbon emissions than gas boilers and are compatible with underfloor heating and low-temperature systems.

Ground source heat pumps

GSHPs are a suitable choice for larger developments with borehole access. They are designed to provide an efficient and stable performance all year round, making them ideal if you’re building in line with regulations like the Future Homes Standard 2025.

Centralised district heating and cooling (DHC) systems

Fed by centralised energy centres, these installations generate hot and/or cold water in one location and distribute it to multiple buildings via insulated pipes underground. These systems are versatile and can be upgraded as this technology progresses.

Energy efficient HVAC options

From Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) systems to heat recovery ventilation systems, we can recommend a range of sustainable HVAC technologies that will heat and cool your building quickly, reliably, and in an eco-friendlier way.

Smart controls and system optimisation

We can advise on the best building management system for your development or refurbishment project. These installations enable your residents to intelligently control the heating, cooling and ventilation of the space whilst optimising energy usage.

We also offer more specialist solutions, including (but not limited to):

Dry and wet riser systems
MEV and MVHR systems
Underfloor heating
Suspended drainage
Guttering and rainwater pipes
Pipework insulation

The case for renewable energy

Whether you are developing a new build or refurbishing an older premises, sustainability can no longer be an afterthought.

Crucially, developers and contractors must ensure Part L compliance, which involves exploring renewable plumbing and heating alternatives where viable for lower energy consumption and more efficient heating, hot water and ventilation systems. But aside from ensuring your build meets current Building Regulations, there are plenty more advantages to investing in sustainable heating and HVAC services.

As Head of Customer Services for a busy housing developer, my biggest challenge is finding contractors who communicate as well as they plumb. Aveat excels at both. Their office staff provides clear scheduling updates, and their site technicians are excellent at explaining repairs to residents. They handle everything from minor snags to emergency leaks with total professionalism. I cannot recommend them highly enough for any developer prioritising aftercare quality.

C. Borges, Head of Customer Services, Weston Homes Plc

I had the pleasure of working with Aveat on a Cat-A refurbishment in Fitzrovia, just off Hanover Square. The design had its complications, including the installation of a hybrid VRF system within a raised access floor void and additional capital plant on an already heavily congested roof. Aveat’s team were proactive and attentive throughout the programme, handling all elements of the project professionally and promptly. I am looking forward to working with them again.

J. Neame, Services Manager, Parkeray Interiors Ltd

We have worked closely with Aveat on our Springstead Village Development and their performance has been exceptional throughout. The quality of workmanship has been consistently high. Their team is reliable, well organised and works collaboratively with our wider project team which has helped maintain programme and performance targets. We have developed a positive working relationship and have no hesitation in highly recommending Aveat.
