RESIDENTS AND THE ENVIRONMENT, HAS BEEN A PRIORITY AT UPPER STRAND SO A HIGHLY EFFICIENT 'DISTRICT HEATING' SYSTEM HAS BEEN ADOPTED.

THE DISTRICT HEATING CONCEPT INVOLVES A CENTRAL PLANT THAT SUPPLIES HEATING AND HOT WATER FOR THE ENTIRE DEVELOPMENT, OFFERING SIGNIFICANT ADVANTAGES OVER THE TRADITIONAL SYSTEM.

It eliminates the need for individual boilers and their associated maintenance costs, delivering near instantaneous heat 24 hrs/365 days.

It reduces energy consumption by up to 10%.
 
It provides reliable, controllable heating from a remote source that helps to reduce condensation, raise comfort levels and improve building fabric protection.

Centralised digital recording will calculate consumption and issue the appropriate invoices, and the system is maintained by on-call engineers making waiting in for the meter reader or plumber a thing of the past.
