Job description

Heat Pump Engineer – Overview

We are working with a Heat Pump company who specialise in domestic and commercial Heat Pumps. They are looking for a Senior O&M Engineer to cover their sites in the Midlothian area, carrying out service and repair works on Heat Pumps of all sizes. They will train you up fully on commercial heat pumps and will put you through courses including your F Gas 2079, manufacturer courses and electrical controls training.

The company looks after several types of site. The first is Retirement Homes/Care Homes which have a central plant room with a Commercial Scale ASHP providing the heating and hot water to all the rooms and properties on site. These units are usually 80-200KW+ in size.

Secondly, the design and build side of the company design and install innovative ‘Heat Pump Networks’ at new build housing sites. This is essentially a district heating system powered by heat pumps. There is a central ‘Energy Centre’ on the new build estate which has either cascaded or large scale Ground Source Heat Pumps and the heating and hot water is transferred to each property on the estate via the large diameter pipework. Each property has its own HIU meaning you will service and maintain both the plant room systems and also the HIU’s in customer properties.

Lastly, the company also install individual ASHP & GSHP’s to larger country homes, manor houses and estates.

Your role will be servicing, maintaining fault finding and repairing the Heat Pumps, HIU’s and Plant Room Systems across all sites. The is an excellent opportunity to be trained on Commercial Heat Pumps and HIU’s. They are very open to someone from a domestic Heat Pump background and will put you through extensive training, so you won’t be dropped in the deep end.
