ULTRA-FIN UFH ASSISTS QUEST FOR NET ZERO STANDARD
Ultra-Fin UK Ltd. has successfully completed an underfloor heating installation at St Paul’ s Church, Covent Garden— known as the Actors’ Church— proving that major energy improvements can be made to a Grade I listed building without altering its historic fabric. The project, completed under the Church of England’ s Net Zero Carbon programme, prepares the building for future renewable heating, including air source heat pumps.
After meeting through the Westminster Churches Net Zero Forum, Ultra-Fin collaborated closely with Parish Administrator Phil Hunt and Revd. Simon Grigg. Due to the heritage sensitivity of the site, Ultra-Fin took on full responsibility as manufacturer, supplier and installer, producing a 250-page specification to support approval.
The system covers 2,900 sq. m in 12 heating zones, with Rockwool insulation and PhotonWrap membrane improving heat efficiency. Early results show the church now warms more quickly at a lower operating temperature, delivering comfort, efficiency and long-term sustainability with minimal disruption to the historic structure.
