Meet the Heating Installer Awards 2024 finalists
The Heating Installer Awards has revealed its 2024 regional and sustainability winners as well as the finalists for its Rising Star and HVAC categories.
The shortlists were decided by a panel including representatives from the awards’ partners CIPHE, the IPG, Polypipe Building Products, Samsung Climate Solutions and Stelrad. They scored all entries on their technical expertise, problem-solving, product knowledge and outstanding work.
The panel was joined by the 2023 Heating Installer Awards national winner James Bowen from Integral Plumbing, Heating & Renewables and Most Sustainable winner, Liam Barry from Custom Renewables, who scored their respective categories.
Now in its ninth year, the Heating Installer Awards recognises the achievements of plumbers and heating installers across the country who deliver excellent work on a daily basis.
