'iHeat' then took the prize for the best customer service, they offer next-day boiler installation and are based online.

With an annual turnover of £10.5 million they have been operating for more than five years, with 20 members of staff.

Situated at Station House Farm on Chorley Road in Westhoughton, the firm, which launched in 2019, is an online boiler installation company.

Its website allows customers to answer a set list of simple questions about their home, receive an instant fixed price quote on a boiler and installation package, and have it installed as early as the next day.

It is moving the business model from just installing boilers to fitting air conditioning and EV car chargers into peoples homes.

The business has a dedicated team who work tirelessly to ensure customers are happy with their pre/post-install service
