Established in 1951, Steve Tomkinson took over from his father 35 years ago. Originally plumbing and heating, the business rapidly grew to provide a full heating service including repairs. With the introduction of multi-fuel stoves 30 years ago, the business turned into a one-stop shop for heating services for home and industrial purposes. The company moved into its present property in 1986 that had originally been owned by the co-op food stores.
We still have some of the original glass signs! Due to our strong enigineering background we have always pushed to be at the leading edge of heating technology. Over the past 10 years, the push for greener heating systems has become a very important part of our business. This has lead us to be one of the North-west specialists in Biomass and solar heating systems.
With 30 current employees including two sons, we are continually expanding our expertise in the heating industry. If you are an interior designer, architect, home owner or builder and you need a stove, heating system or appliance, then you need to know about Tomkinson Heating Limited.

The use of biomass is classed as being 'Carbon Neutral' and therefore do not contribute to Global Warming.
As trees grow, they absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere during photosynthesis.
When the wood is subsequently burnt, that same amount of Carbon is released back into the atmosphere and thus there is no net increase in Carbon and no impact on the environment.
Compare this with the burning of fossil fuels such as oil and gas where the Carbon has been locked away for millions of years - until we burn it and release it.

Heating with wood pellets does not contribute to climate change.
Wood pellets are regarded as a carbon neutral energy source.
When pellets are burnt they release solar energy absorbed during the trees growth.
The Co2 released in this process is equal to the Co2 absorbed during the trees growth.
In addition, localized production of wood pellets dramatically reduces transport related emissions.
Wood pellets not only save energy interms of manufacturing and delivery, but also create local employment opportunities.

Utilising dry wood chips, over 400 systems are in operation around the world.
The high qulaity gas powers an 8 litre V8 generator providing steady heat and power.
Wood chips can be provided from local areas and dried on site using the systems own heat supply.
According to principles of cogeneration, the Spanner Wood Cogeneration System converts wood chips into power and warmth with high efficiency.
The systems are run using natural wood chips and provide attractive cost advantages and/or increased power yields according to location and legal conditions.

Generate power on site and take control of your energy costs and lower your carbon emissions by up to 30%.
Combined heat and power (CHP) systems deliver maximum energy efficiency and low emissions through the cogeneration of usable heat and electricity in one single process.
A CHP module consists of a gas engine, a generator, and a heat exchange system.
The gas engine drives the generator to produce three-phase electrical power, which feeds into the main low voltage distribution system, where it can be used locally or exported to the national grid.

The EnerTwin is a micro CHP (Combined Heat and Power) system where a boiler and a small power plant are combined in a single durable device.
The EnerTwin has been developed by MTT (Micro Turbine Technology BV).
The heart of the EnerTwin is a micro turbine that drives a generator.
The micro turbine delivers 3kW electrical power and 15kW thermal power for heating and hot tap water.
The EnerTwin is the first cogeneration system based on a micro turbine.
Micro turbines offer great advantages in reliability, life and maintenance costs.
