Langdon Hills Estate District Heating System 

The dwellings on the Langdon Hills estate receive their heating and hot water from a district heating system, which provides hot water to each dwelling by way of insulated pipes from a central boiler room that is located in Valence Way.

When the hot water reaches the individual dwelling it goes through a heat exchanger, which heats up radiators and a cylinder to provide space heating and hot water respectively.
