About

Norwich City Council e-Tendering awarded a contract to Bruce Towers and Sons Ltd for the upgrade of the boiler plant room at Silver Birch Court.

The project involved removing all existing boiler plant, controls, and lighting system, and replacing them with a district system sub-station, new safety control system, and lighting.

The existing boiler plant had been unused since 1997 due to the Mile Cross district heating scheme, which bypassed the mechanical plant and connected communal heating flow and return supplies directly into the sheltered scheme's system.

The new sub-station creates hydraulic separation to reduce the duty load on main heating pumps and provides an option for a dual fuel system in the future.

The contract, valued at £42,882.39, required a single supplier responsible for system design, installation, and commissioning, managed by NPS Norwich Ltd - Property Services Team.
