The Commercial Heating Efficiency Programme installs patented technology into UK commercial heating systems, monitors the savings against a verified baseline, and splits them with you 50/50. You pay nothing if your bills do not fall.

We take all of it. Step 01 ### We fund the installation The unit, the engineer time, the commissioning, the monitoring kit. All paid for by us. There is no invoice from CHEP at install. Step 02 ### We measure the savings Twelve months of pre-install consumption data become your baseline. Post-install consumption is monitored against a degree-day-adjusted forecast. The methodology is auditable. Step 03 ### You share the savings 50% of every verified pound saved goes to you, recurring, for the five-year agreement. If there is no saving, there is no payment. Step 04 ### Renew or we remove it The unit is leased to your building for the five-year term, not sold. At the end of year five you choose: renew the agreement and keep your 50% share, or we remove the unit at no cost to you. [Book Your Free Assessment](/contact) The Programme ## An independent operator. A patented unit. A verified saving. CHEP deploys VorteXtract, a patented vortex-based heating system optimiser, into the wet heating systems of UK care homes, hotels, farms, and commercial estates. The unit removes dissolved gases continuously, lifts emitter surface temperature by 10 to 12 degrees, and protects the system from the corrosion that produces magnetite sludge. We are a private commercial operator, not a government scheme. We make money only when our clients do. Every pound of saving is measured against a verified baseline using IPMVP Option C methodology with degree-day adjustment. Heating cost reduction 15 to 20% (typical) Carbon emissions reduction ~20% (typical) Radiator surface temperature +10 to 12°C Dissolved oxygen post-treatment ~0.2 ppm (inert) System lifespan extension +6 to 7 years Product lifespan 40+ years ![Diagram showing the VorteXtract inline device installed on the flow pipe between a commercial boiler and radiators, removing micro-bubbles, capturing magnetite, and eliminating cavitation.](/assets/vortextract-diagram-PXITXNot.webp) VorteXtract installs inline on the heating flow pipe — removing micro-bubbles, capturing magnetite, and eliminating cavitation across the loop. Featured Client ## Four Seasons Health Care: 15% saved across two London sites. Audited billing data, normalised via degree-day analysis, confirmed sustained reductions in gas consumption at both Murrayfield and Lansdowne care homes after a single VorteXtract install per site. Murrayfield 15.1% gas saved Lansdowne 14.5% gas saved CO₂ 51.5 t avoided / yr > “Impressed with the results from the test sites, we will now roll out this technology across selected properties in our UK and NI portfolio, starting with an initial 25 locations.” > > K.
