At Igloo Heating, we believe that being a local heating company is about much more than repairing boilers and keeping homes warm. It is about being part of the communities we work in, supporting local people, helping local businesses and, wherever possible, contributing to charitable and community causes across Dorset and Hampshire.


For more than 20 years, Igloo Heating has been providing heating, boiler and plumbing services to homes, landlords, letting agents and businesses throughout Dorset and Hampshire. Our Gas Safe registered engineers provide professional boiler servicing, boiler repairs, new boiler installations, central heating services, power flushing, heat pump services, landlord gas safety inspections and HMO services.

Being locally based means that when customers call Igloo Heating, they are dealing with a heating company that understands the area and the people who live here.


Supporting the Dorset and Hampshire Community

Local businesses play an important role in the communities they serve. At Igloo Heating, we want our work to have a positive impact beyond simply completing a heating job.

We believe that local businesses have a responsibility to support the communities around them wherever they can. This includes supporting local charities, community organisations, local initiatives and people who work hard to improve the lives of others.

Whether it is helping a local organisation, supporting charitable fundraising, contributing to a community project or simply providing reliable heating services to local families and landlords, we want Igloo Heating to remain a company that people can rely on.

For us, being local means being approachable, treating customers fairly and building relationships that last.


Local Heating Engineers in Dorset and Hampshire

Igloo Heating is based in Bournemouth, Dorset, and provides heating services throughout Dorset and Hampshire.

Our service area includes some of the largest towns and communities in the region, including Bournemouth, Poole, Christchurch, Dorchester, Weymouth, Ferndown, Wimborne, Ringwood, Verwood, Blandford Forum, Bridport, Sherborne, Shaftesbury, Gillingham, Wareham and Swanage.

We also work across many smaller towns, villages and rural communities.

Dorset Council's own area profiles demonstrate just how extensive the network of towns and settlements across Dorset is, with locations ranging from Beaminster and Bridport to Cranborne, Corfe Mullen, Gillingham, Sherborne, Swanage, Verwood, Wareham and Wimborne.

Our Hampshire coverage extends into communities including Southampton, Ringwood, Winchester, Romsey, Eastleigh, Christchurch-area communities and many surrounding towns and villages.

Because Dorset and Hampshire contain such a large number of rural settlements, having a genuinely local heating engineer can be particularly useful when a boiler breaks down, a heating system needs servicing or a landlord requires urgent gas safety documentation.


Boiler Servicing Across Dorset and Hampshire

Regular boiler servicing is one of the most important services we provide.

A boiler is one of the most important appliances in a home. It provides heating and hot water throughout the year, but like any mechanical appliance, it benefits from regular inspection and maintenance.

During a boiler service, our heating engineers inspect the boiler and associated components, check for signs of wear and tear, inspect for gas or water leaks and check that the system is operating correctly. Components such as filters and traps can also be cleaned where required.

Regular boiler servicing can help identify developing problems before they become larger and potentially more expensive repairs.

We provide boiler servicing for homeowners, landlords, rental properties and businesses across Dorset and Hampshire.

Our fixed-price boiler servicing is currently listed at £99, subject to the terms shown by Igloo Heating.


Boiler Repairs and Emergency Heating Repairs

A boiler breakdown rarely happens at a convenient time.

Whether you have no heating, no hot water, a boiler displaying a fault code, low pressure, unusual noises or another heating problem, getting professional assistance quickly can make a significant difference.

Igloo Heating provides boiler repair services throughout Dorset and Hampshire, including emergency support.

Our engineers diagnose the problem and, where the fault can be repaired during the visit, the repair may be completed during the call-out. Where replacement parts are required, customers are informed before additional work is carried out.

We work on a wide range of domestic heating systems and can provide advice on whether repairing an existing boiler or considering a replacement is the most appropriate next step.


New Boiler Installation and Boiler Replacement

Sometimes repairing an older boiler is no longer the most practical option.

When a boiler has reached the end of its useful life, repeatedly develops faults or is becoming increasingly expensive to maintain, a new boiler installation may provide a more suitable long-term solution.

Igloo Heating provides new boiler installation and replacement services throughout Dorset and Hampshire.

We can advise homeowners on different boiler options, including combi boilers, system boilers and conventional boilers.

A properly specified and professionally installed boiler can provide reliable heating and hot water while helping homeowners understand their heating system and its ongoing maintenance requirements.


Central Heating Repairs and Maintenance

Our work goes beyond the boiler itself.

A central heating system consists of numerous components that need to work together, including radiators, valves, pumps, cylinders, pipework, tanks and controls.

Igloo Heating provides a range of central heating services, including:

  • Central heating installation

  • Boiler installation

  • Boiler servicing

  • Boiler repairs

  • Radiator repairs and replacement

  • Pipe repairs and replacement

  • Valve repairs and replacement

  • Cylinder replacement

  • Header tank replacement

  • Central heating maintenance

  • Power flushing

  • Heating system fault finding

This means that customers can contact one local heating company for many of their heating requirements rather than having to arrange several different contractors.


Power Flushing for Dorset and Hampshire Homes

If your radiators are not heating evenly, your central heating system is noisy or your boiler appears to be working harder than it should, the heating system may benefit from further investigation.

Power flushing is a specialist process used to clean and improve the performance of central heating systems where appropriate.

Igloo Heating provides power flushing services across Dorset and Hampshire, with the aim of helping customers restore heating system performance and improve circulation. The company's current service information lists power flushing among its central heating services.

Before any work is undertaken, the heating system should be assessed to determine whether power flushing is appropriate.


Landlord Gas Safety Certificates and HMO Services

Igloo Heating also works with landlords, letting agents and property owners across Dorset and Hampshire.

Rental properties require proper maintenance and safety checks, and landlords have responsibilities relating to gas appliances and pipework.

Our landlord and HMO services are designed to make managing heating and gas safety requirements easier for property owners.

We provide gas safety inspections and landlord gas safety certificates, commonly known as CP12 certificates.

Our engineers inspect relevant gas appliances and pipework and provide the appropriate documentation following the inspection. Igloo Heating currently lists landlord gas safety inspections at £75 and its landlord/HMO service at £99, subject to the current service terms.


HMO Gas Safety Services

Houses in Multiple Occupation, commonly known as HMOs, can have more complicated heating and gas requirements because several tenants may share the same property.

For landlords and letting agents managing HMOs, keeping accurate records and ensuring gas appliances and associated pipework are appropriately inspected is essential.

Igloo Heating can assist landlords with gas safety inspections and documentation for rental properties and HMOs across Dorset and Hampshire.


Heating Services for Rental Properties

We understand that landlords need heating systems to remain safe, reliable and properly maintained.

A boiler failure in a rental property can cause significant inconvenience for both landlords and tenants. Regular servicing and preventative maintenance can help identify potential problems before they become emergency breakdowns.

Igloo Heating can assist landlords with:

  • Boiler servicing

  • Boiler repairs

  • Gas safety inspections

  • Landlord gas safety certificates

  • HMO gas safety services

  • Central heating repairs

  • Boiler replacement

  • New boiler installation

  • Heating system maintenance

  • Emergency heating repairs

This makes Igloo Heating a useful local contact for landlords managing individual rental properties, portfolios and HMOs.


Heat Pump Installation and Servicing

Heating technology is changing, and heat pumps are becoming increasingly important as homeowners consider alternatives to traditional heating systems.

Igloo Heating also provides heat pump services, including heat pump installation, annual servicing and diagnostic support.

For homeowners considering a heat pump in Dorset or Hampshire, professional advice is important because the suitability of a system depends on the property, insulation, heating requirements and existing heating system.

Our engineers can help customers understand their options and arrange appropriate installation and maintenance.


Air Conditioning and Heating Services

Igloo Heating's services also extend to air conditioning.

Modern air conditioning systems can provide both cooling and heating, making them useful throughout the year rather than only during summer.

We provide air conditioning installation, servicing and repair services for customers across Dorset and Hampshire.

Why Choose a Local Heating Company?

Choosing a local heating company can make a real difference.

When your boiler stops working, you do not necessarily want to wait several days for an engineer travelling from outside the region.

Igloo Heating is based in Dorset and has extensive experience working across Dorset and Hampshire. Our engineers understand the different types of properties found across the region, from modern apartments and family homes to older cottages, rental properties and HMOs.

We aim to provide straightforward advice, transparent pricing and professional workmanship.

Our current service information also states that our heating engineers are Gas Safe registered and fully qualified installers, and that completed work is covered by a 12-month guarantee.




Supporting Local People Through Local Business

For Igloo Heating, community is not simply a marketing phrase.

Every boiler service, repair, installation, gas safety inspection and heating job we complete is part of the local economy.

Customers choose a local company.

Local engineers carry out the work.

Local suppliers and businesses can be involved.

And, where possible, local businesses can support community organisations and charitable causes.

That is why we believe supporting the community should be part of running a responsible local heating company.

We want customers to know that when they choose Igloo Heating, they are choosing a business that is proud to operate in Dorset and Hampshire and wants to contribute positively to the area it serves.
