Graham Eggleton (Business Development Manager) explains the genesis behind the partnership. “The reason at the beginning Integral/English Churches selected Ideal and Stelrad, on Boilers the range, the size, the flexibility of flueing systems, the training the back up given and radiators were an added bonus as they only needed to come to one manufacture for their heating requirements.”

Ideal/Stelrad in partnership arrangement with Integral and English Churches for the last 3 years they have had £1.6 million to spend on heating nationally of which sole spec will be Ideal and Stelrad. Graham explains that English Churches are impressed that they have had very little problems, and we have assisted them so far in the small needs they i.e., self design laminated tenant advise sheet, technical training and staff training.

At present English Churches have between 12.000 and 13.000 units and their consultants National Design Centre (NDC) for English Churches only specify our products Domestic Boilers, Commercial Boilers and Radiators. The programme for English churches £1.4 million this financial year (2005/2006) is a significant investment in heating. Significant numbers of Ideal Boilers have been used at Lowerstoff, Southampton, Bromley, Ipswich, Beckenham, and London area in general.

The National Contractor called Integral (are part of a full partnership with English Churches), have also been impressed with Ideal and Stelrad.
