Winrow Building • June 23, 2025

Client: Trebaron Garden Centre

Location: Blackpool, UK

Industry: Retail / Leisure

Project: Urgent Heating System Replacement & Climate Control Upgrade


Introduction

Trebaron Garden Centre in Blackpool is a popular destination for plant lovers and home gardeners, also featuring a bustling restaurant for its visitors. When a critical Powrmatic Heater in the centre suffered a cracked heat exchanger, it created an urgent need for a replacement to ensure the comfort and safety of their customers. Winrow Building Services Limited was contacted to provide a modern, efficient, and aesthetically pleasing solution.

The Challenge: Replacing a Failed System with a Year-Round Solution

The primary issue was the immediate failure of a key heating unit, leaving a significant area of the garden centre without heat. The client needed a solution that would not only replace the broken heater but also:


  • Enhance the Restaurant Environment: The new system needed to be visually appealing to fit into the customer-facing restaurant area.
  • Provide Year-Round Comfort: The client wanted a solution that could provide warmth in the winter and offer cooling ventilation during the warmer summer months.
  • Integrate with Existing Controls: The new units needed to work seamlessly in tandem with the other heating systems already operating throughout the large garden centre.
  • Offer High Performance: The heaters had to deliver powerful and efficient heat output from a relatively compact unit.


The Solution: Versatile and Efficient XR30 Warm Air Heaters

Following a detailed site survey, Winrow Ltd recommended the installation of two XR30 gas-fired warm air heaters. This solution was selected for its perfect blend of performance, aesthetics, and advanced features:

  • Modern Aesthetics & Compact Size: The Winterwarm XR30 units boast a modern design that blends seamlessly into the restaurant's decor, providing high-performance heating without being obtrusive.
  • All-Season Climate Control: A key feature is the built-in summer fan function, which allows the units to circulate cool air during hot weather, providing significant value and ensuring customer comfort all year long.
  • Seamless System Integration: Our engineers expertly wired the new XR30 units into the garden centre's existing control panel, allowing them to operate in perfect tandem with the other units on site for centralised and straightforward management.


Implementation: Professional Installation and System Integration

The Winrow team carried out the removal of the old, faulty heater and the full installation of the two new XR30 units. The process was handled efficiently to minimise any downtime or inconvenience. Our engineers focused on a clean and professional installation in the restaurant area and ensured the full integration and commissioning of the control system was completed to the client's satisfaction.


The Outcome: Enhanced Customer Comfort and Operational Efficiency

The new heating and cooling solution has delivered significant benefits for Trebaron Garden Centre:

  • Improved Customer Experience: The restaurant is now a comfortable and inviting space for customers in all seasons, whether they are warming up in winter or cooling down in summer.
  • Enhanced Ambiance: The modern and discreet design of the heaters contributes positively to the restaurant's atmosphere.
  • Unified Control: The integrated system simplifies the management of the centre's overall climate control.
  • Reliable & Efficient Performance: The new units provide dependable warmth and ventilation with high energy efficiency.


Conclusion

This project at Trebaron Garden Centre showcases Winrow's ability to respond to an urgent need with a solution that provides lasting, year-round value. By replacing a single failed unit with two versatile heaters and integrating them into the existing infrastructure, we not only solved the immediate problem but also significantly upgraded the comfort and experience for our client's customers.
