How a Lancashire Warehouse Slashed Energy Bills by 30% with Winrow’s Heating Upgrade
From Draughty to Efficient – A Warehouse Heating Transformation
When a Lancashire-based logistics company saw their heating costs skyrocket by 50% in two years, they turned to Winrow Building Ltd for a solution. Their outdated radiant heating system was guzzling energy, leaving cold spots, and struggling to maintain temperatures in their 25,000 sq ft warehouse.
Within 6 weeks, we transformed their heating infrastructure, delivering:
✅ 30% reduction in annual energy bills
✅ Even heat distribution across the facility
✅ Smart controls for better temperature management
The Challenge – An Inefficient, Costly Heating System
The warehouse’s old radiant heaters had multiple pain points:
- Energy waste: 40% of heat was lost through poor insulation and outdated tech.
- Cold zones: Workers in certain areas needed space heaters (a safety risk).
- No smart controls: Temperatures couldn’t be adjusted remotely.
The Cost of Doing Nothing
Without intervention, the business faced:
- £18,000/year in unnecessary energy costs
- Complaints from staff about working conditions
- Potential compliance issues (uneven heating affected stored goods)
