Common questions

FAQs

Here’s what clients most often ask about staying ahead of Ofgem and HNTAS requirements.

What is heat network technical assurance?

It’s independent oversight of a heat network’s design, installation and performance, checking that what’s built matches what was specified, and that it meets regulatory and performance standards, at every stage from planning through to operation.

We work with developers delivering new heat networks, housing providers and operators managing existing ones, and local authorities overseeing zoning and compliance across their area.

Contractors and consultants often have their own commercial interests in a project. Uniti has no other relationships to protect, so we can challenge decisions and flag issues on your behalf, without conflict of interest.

As early as possible. We support the full heat network lifecycle, from development vision through to operation, but the earlier we’re involved, the more risk and cost we can help you avoid.
