About us
Discover our history and how we work.
In the beginning…
In 1999 CB Heating was established by Clayton Browne, an apprentice-trained plumber by trade.
Over 20 years ago, Clayton saw a future in renewable energy whilst working with Thermal Solar Energy systems.. As new technologies developed and emerged on to the market, he was keen to explore and embrace them.
He installed his first air source heat pump with an underfloor heating system on a beautiful barn conversion back in the 2000. Since then, we have installed thousands more.
Today we have a large head office building in Clacton-on-Sea. You are welcome to come and visit our showroom to see, hear, and feel how a heat pump works. We’ll give you a tour of our facilities so you can meet our team. That same team will look after you throughout the process from start to finish.
Our HPIN Training Academy, the only one of its kind in the UK is dedicated to training the next generation of heat pump installers. Here we’ll show you just what goes into a high-quality, highly efficient heat pump installation.
