Creda Heating
Design application support
Electric heating is cheaper than gas
Annualised installation costs (based on manufacturers’ quoted average lifetimes and typical installation costs for 6 electric panels or 6
gas boiler).
Annual safety check and maintenance costs (to comply with manufacturers’ conditions of guarantee - using lowest priced British Gas service contract to include boiler, controls and radiators).
Annual fuel costs (based on guidance from the Energy Saving Trust publication CE185 and Npower standard gas and electricity prices on Feb 10th 2008).
Low carbon electricity from renewable sources makes electric heating the fuel of the future; but already electric heating is cheaper than gas.
In recent times all energy prices have risen but none more so than gas. Creda electric heating is now cheaper over its entire lifetime than gas, when all the facts are considered.
Electric heating products cost less to buy in the first place and are quick and easy to install or upgrade. They offer total flexibility in the building design, with no complicated pipe runs, which also leave gaps in the building fabric; a problem when
Year in and year out, electric heating provides instant, responsive and safe heating on demand. Recent calculations have shown that when all these factors are taken into account there is a minimum overall cost saving of at least 13% a year in comparison to gas central heating.
Apartments and flats often favour electric heating for all these reasons. It is the simplest and most cost effective solution for many hotels, gyms, crèches, nurseries, surgeries, care homes, offices and shops all over the UK.
Application design
We have over 40 years experience in designing and supporting electrical heating installations. We are able to offer an expert application design service for all our products, helping new and existing customers alike to specify Creda products into real buildings and live projects, either
In recent times the proliferation of environmental legislation and revisions to Building Regulations, all designed to reduce carbon intensity and improve energy efficiency, have made the design process more complex. We are here to help with two levels of design service.
Level 1:
Our standard design service is free of charge and will provide a clear and simple indication of the products required and the associated costs. This service can be provided from basic plans and drawings.
Level 2:
Our enhanced design service incurs a very competitive fee to cover

Technical services
Our technical services call centre is staffed by a team trained in diagnosing and rectifying potential concerns over the phone.
If for any reason they are unable to solve a problem by phone, they will brief an engineer on your behalf prior to the service visit to ensure that, wherever possible, the problem is fixed first time.
