The Priest House

The challenge

The Priest House Hotel is a historic hotel building located close to East Midlands Airport within beautiful surroundings, offering excellent dining facilities. The hotel operators are keen to engage with renewable technology to provide environmental benefits, and to reduce the operating cost of the hotel.

As a historic building in a rural area, the property operates on a combination of LPG and oil to provide heating and cooking facilities. The client’s current annual spend on heating and hot water was in the region of £50,000, which represented a significant cost. In line with their sustainability and cost reduction targets, they were keen to explore OH4 Energy Saving Technology (OH4) as a potential solution that didn’t require extensive investment in new equipment.

Our solution

After a short site visit, it was agreed that OH4 be installed at the premises with a guarantee that the installation cost would not exceed the year one saving. With no need for any downtime on the heating and hot water system, and access only required in the plant rooms, it was shown that there would be no disruption to hotel and spa operations. 

OH4 was fitted in the 3 plant rooms in July 2024 with the installation taking a total of 2.5 hours.

The results

Based on the data collected between August 2024 and December 2024 the hotel has seen a reduction in litres per degree day per guest of 21% representing a saving of £10,500 over a year.

The Client has now engaged OH4 to assess the other buildings in their estate.
