Testimonials

We use the Purewell Variheat boilers wherever possible due to their cast iron reliability. Since changing to the mk2s with the upgraded LMS controls platform and spark ignition system, we will continue to be using these for the foreseeable future.

Stuart Giles, Giles Heating

The boilers were very easy to position and install, the installation instructions were clear to follow. Everything was delivered as and when Hamworthy said it would be. We also used the Hamworthy pipe kits, which are great, as they save time on site.

Mark Smith, Leybourne Urwin Ltd

We have a great working relationship with Hamworthy; they provide technical support on the phone and knowledgeable sales managers in the field. The Purewell VariHeat boilers are a fantastic, robust product that we have installed in lots of our projects.

Ainsley Downer, Wessex Building Services

Hamworthy’s Purewells are compact and sturdy cast iron boilers with large waterways, we use them in our temporary boiler rooms for this very reason.

Danny Bulch, Cedar Green Projects Ltd

The Carlton Hotel has seen their system upgraded from the early Hamworthy UR cast iron boilers through to the Purewell VariHeat boilers of today. The upgrades have been straightforward due to the ease of replacement between old atmospheric and newer condensing models in Hamworthy’s range.

Danny Bulch, Director, Cedar Green Ldt

The aluminium heat exchangers in the boilers are optimised to provide even heat distribution, high efficiency, & reliability. The packaged plant room is very quiet for its output due to the high efficiency fan, insulation on the panels & the heat exchanger, eliminating noise-generating surfaces.

Case studies

Allenbourne Middle School in Wimborne

Allenbourn Middle School, Wimborne

Sector: Education

Project: The school suffered from ageing boilers that had already broken down. Spare parts were impossible to source, so the boiler plant was upgraded to cast iron condensing boilers.

Building: School refurbishment

Application: Space heating 285kW
