Why Reliable Heating Matters in Aged Care

Across Melbourne, we’re proud to look after the heating and hot water systems in a growing number of aged care facilities. It’s a part of our work that really means something — because when it comes to aged care, keeping people warm, safe and comfortable is everything.
Hydronic Heating in Aged Care
Hydronic heating is a popular choice in aged care for good reason. It provides a consistent, gentle warmth with minimal noise or airflow — which means no dust blowing around, no cold spots, and no dry air.
It also allows for higher temperature settings and longer run times, which many older residents appreciate (and expect). We often find these systems running harder and longer than in other environments, which makes regular maintenance even more important.
Preventative Maintenance That Actually Prevents
Our team regularly services hydronic boilers, pumps and radiator systems across aged care homes to ensure they’re running safely and efficiently. That includes:
- Checking for leaks, corrosion or blockages 
- Cleaning heat exchangers and burners 
- Testing safety controls and thermostats 
- Ensuring consistent water pressure and circulation 
We also provide efficiency reports and can flag opportunities for upgrades — especially in older facilities where systems might be under pressure.


Trusted Brands. Trusted Support.
We don’t cut corners. We use brands we know and trust. Systems that are long-lasting, serviceable, and proven to perform. There’s no room for failure in aged care, which is why we only recommend what we’d use in our own homes — and then stand by it.
A Human Approach
We know we’re not just servicing equipment — we’re supporting the comfort and wellbeing of real people. Many of our clients tell us they appreciate our care, our reliability, and our clear communication. We show up when we say we will. We get the job done properly. And we genuinely take pride in our work.
If you manage an aged care facility and want help keeping your heating or hot water systems running smoothly, we’d love to hear from you.
We’re here to make sure things stay warm, simple, and stress-free — all year round.
