Hi Has anybody designed or installed a duel gas heating boiler installation for Schools, Hospitals, factories, office blocks or old peoples homes or domestic use.

We are now living longer, hyperthermia is a big killer when temperatures drop well below freezing, should we be prepared for the instance when our gas boiler fails and we are unable to find a heating engineer to carry out repairs at short notice.

Hence the question should we install a standby boiler, that may save our lives one day. What do you think?. switching between boilers could be made simple by operating an electric switch.
 
Many of the above already have multiple boilers, where there is a single boiler, temp space heating or convention heating is very simple to set up. I carry 6KW of electric heating which i hand out if the boiler is going to be off. Offices often have a/c for summer, these can often be used in heat mode. From my experience not really an issue that cannot be resolved quickly.
 
Depends on your heating load if under 30kw no point in going down the dual boiler route

Your better of just buying a few oil filled rads

As Bacon said, we already do that. Have done for decades.
