Hospital delivery

When Addenbrookes Hospital,
Cambridge, had a major failure
recently on one of its main
35,000lb/h steam boilers, it contacted
King’s Boiler Hire, whose
Mildenhall branch is close by.

Kings was asked to urgently
provide a temporary boiler to help
cover the hospital’s steam demand.
The emergency unit was delivered
and on line with minimum loss to
the hospital.

King’s involvement did not end
there. As one of Europe’s largest
stockist of re-conditioned boilers, it
had an almost identical 35,000lb/h
steam boiler in stock at its
Mildenhall branch.

King’s director, David King,
offered the unit to Addenbrookes,
who promptly decided to purchase.

The boiler was fully refurbished and
delivered to the hospital six weeks
later. Addenbrookes was delighted
with the rapid delivery and with the
financial saving over buying a new
boiler unit.
