Electric Hot Water System & Complete Plumbing Installation — Luxury London Apartment


A Modern, Electric-Only Hot Water System Built for Luxury Apartment Living

High-end apartments require smart, efficient engineering — especially when there’s no gas supply available.

This luxury apartment in Iverna Gardens, Kensington W8 needed a complete hot water and plumbing upgrade that delivered instant hot water, compact equipment, quiet operation, and modern reliability.

With space at a premium and performance expected at the highest standard, Sable Projects designed and installed a fully electric hot water system, complete with all-new copper pipework and two beautifully finished bathrooms.

The result? A sustainable, future-ready installation with flawless performance.
