Industrial LPG Heating System - Modul-System

Technology facility Heating

Powrmatic supplied an advanced Industrial LPG Heating System for Modul‑System’s new manufacturing workshop in York. Installed by ABS Radiant Heating, the project replaced inefficient oil-fired units with modern Powrmatic wall-mounted LPG heaters and integrated heat recovery fans. The new system significantly improved comfort levels and reduced both energy usage and environmental impact.

 
  • “I would like to pass on my sincere thanks and gratitude to ABS for stepping in when a project ran into issues and delays with our original installers.The heating units themselves are noticeably better than the oil-fired ones we have in the adjacent building. As a result, our workshop team are now more than happy with the much more comfortable working environment”

    Mike - Facilities Manager, Modul‑System

Project Background

Modul‑System, a well-known manufacturer in York, had recently acquired additional workshop space that was heated using old, oil-fired units. These legacy heaters were inefficient and no longer met the company’s environmental or operational standards. With a focus on lowering carbon output and improving working conditions, Modul‑System contacted ABS Radiant Heating to design and install a more sustainable solution. The choice was clear: a high-performance Industrial LPG Heating System using Powrmatic’s LX unit heaters.

Project Solution

ABS removed the existing oil units and installed a set of Powrmatic LPG wall-mounted LX unit heaters paired with strategically placed heat recovery fans. The workshop featured high ceilings and open bays, which can often lead to heat stratification. The combination of direct heat from the LPG units and air recirculation from the fans ensured fast warm-up times, improved heat retention, and even air distribution across the facility. The solution offered an immediate 15% fuel saving compared to the old oil-fired setup.

Project Result

The newly installed Industrial LPG Heating System exceeded performance expectations. Modul‑System now benefits from a cleaner, more reliable heating source that aligns with modern environmental standards. Indoor comfort has been dramatically improved, and the site has seen measurable energy savings. The project was delivered swiftly and efficiently during the winter months, allowing operations to continue without interruption.
