    Once we learned Neil put the diesel heating system into our property when it was built 5 years ago by other owners we have continued to use him. Neil has been excellent continuing to service it, fix and upgrade as required as well as help us understand how to get the best out of it. He is very responsive to texts and communications when we need help. His turn around times are outstanding and we highly recommend him and Highland heating for both installing and maintenance. Cheers. Julia.

    Have used this company for a few years now and have no hesitation in recommending them. Neil services our diesel heater and keeps it running sweet. Prompt bookings are also really helpful. He also looks after our diesel heater at our workshop and is very knowledgeable.

    Owner's reply
    Thanks, Deborah. I appreciate you sticking with us over the years. Good to hear both heaters are running well and the bookings are working well for you. Always happy to help keep things ticking along. Neil with Highlander Heating

    We designed and built our home in Dunedin in 20011. Coming from the UK we wanted full central heating with a radiator in every room but were wanting to install an “eco-friendly” system. We chose an imported European system with solar-heated stored water and a back-up hopper-fed pellet boiler and an “intelligent” controller. Unfortunately, after five years we looked for an alternative boiler because the pellet boiler was causing us problems: • wastage of pellets in the burn-down sequence due to the controller constantly calling for heat for a just few minutes and then not, typical of the Dunedin climate, but not cost effective. • buildup of tar in the burner box and flues due to resin in the pine pellets needing a weekly shut down and cleaning, not fun in the winter months. We decided we needed an alternative boiler. On recommendation we called on Neil Riddoch at Highlander Heating. Neil installed a Grant diesel oil boiler, oil storage tank, and replacement inner flue. I handled the DCC planning stuff, designed and built an interface between the Grant boiler and the “intelligent” controller, and helped with installing the oil storage tank. The whole process went smoothly, I enjoyed working with Neil who is a professional, knowledgeable, and experienced heating engineer. We now have a reliable and trouble-free central heating system supported by an annual inspection and service from Highlander Heating.

    Owner's reply
    Thanks, Chris; I appreciate you taking the time to share the full story. That was a big job and a tricky system, but I'm glad we got you onto something reliable that works properly for Dunedin conditions. Enjoyed working with you as well, and good to hear the system’s been running smoothly with the annual service. Neil with Highlander Heating
