Zoning, time and temperature controls, and standalone or BMS-integrated control upgrades — ComGas surveys existing heating controls and specifies improvements for offices, schools, care settings and commercial buildings across Surrey and surrounding counties.
Heating controls cover the zoning, time programming and temperature control that determine which parts of a building are heated, and when. This is a distinct scope from a wider Building Management System (BMS), which integrates heating with other building services such as lighting, ventilation and security under one platform. BMS work is covered on our building management systems page, and we can coordinate the two where a building needs both.
Many commercial buildings still run heating on outdated or overly simple controls — a single time clock for the whole building, or zoning that no longer matches how the space is actually used after a refurbishment or change of occupancy. We survey the existing controls and heating circuit before specifying an upgrade, whether that is improved zoning, updated time and temperature programming, or controls that integrate with a BMS your building already has or is planning.
ComGas installs and upgrades commercial heating controls for offices, schools, care and residential settings and other commercial buildings across Surrey and surrounding counties, coordinating this work with the wider LTHW circuit, pumps and pressurisation equipment it controls.

Commercial heating controls from Farnham, Surrey.
We assess the existing controls and heating circuit before specifying an upgrade, whether standalone or integrated with a wider system.
Splitting a heating circuit into zones that reflect how a building is actually used, so occupied areas are heated without unnecessarily heating the rest.
Updating outdated or oversimplified time clocks and thermostats to reflect a building's actual occupancy pattern.
Specifying heating controls as a standalone system, or integrated with a wider Building Management System where one exists or is planned.
Assessing existing heating controls against current use of the building, and specifying an upgrade where it is genuinely justified.
Planned. Professional. Practical.
We start by understanding how the building is actually occupied and used — which areas are in constant use, which are occasional, and how that compares with the existing zoning and time programming. From there we specify a controls upgrade that matches the building as it is now, rather than assuming the original design intent still applies after refurbishments, extensions or changes in use.
Installation is coordinated with the wider heating circuit — pumps, pressurisation units and any existing BMS — so controls work as part of the whole system rather than as an isolated addition. Once installed, we explain the programming clearly to site staff, so day-to-day adjustments can be made without needing to call us out for routine changes.
Buildings change use over time — a school hall used only occasionally, offices reconfigured into different departments, or a care setting with rooms in more constant use than others. We consider current occupancy, any existing or planned Building Management System, and the age and condition of existing controls, before specifying an upgrade, so the result reflects the building today rather than its original design brief.
Every controls upgrade is scoped to how the building is used today. We do not specify a standard controls package regardless of occupancy or existing equipment.

Heating controls renewed alongside a whole-school distribution refurbishment, so new pipework and radiators could be zoned and operated properly.

"…ended up coming to my place of work and sorting an old heating system that hadn't worked for years in a car showroom & workshop. Great team of guys"

Common questions about zoning, time and temperature programming, and how controls relate to a wider BMS.
Talk to the heating controls teamNo. This page covers heating-specific controls and zoning. A wider Building Management System integrates heating with other building services such as lighting and ventilation, and is covered on our building management systems page. We can coordinate both where your building has, or is planning, a BMS.
Yes. This is one of the most common reasons for a controls upgrade. We review how the building is used now against the existing zoning and programming, and specify an upgrade to match current use.
Yes. Heating controls can be specified as a standalone system without a wider BMS, and can be integrated later if a BMS is added in future.
We coordinate any controls upgrade with the wider heating circuit, including pumps and pressurisation units, so the system continues to work correctly as a whole rather than the controls being treated in isolation.
Yes. We survey and test existing controls and explain our findings clearly, and only recommend an upgrade where it is genuinely justified by the condition or performance of what is already there.
Yes. Controls issues identified during a boiler servicing or heating maintenance visit can be scoped and quoted separately, and we coordinate the two so work is sequenced sensibly.
Tell us about the building, how it is used, and any existing controls or BMS already in place. We can advise on the right approach and arrange a survey where appropriate.
