Baxi Commercial

What Baxi Commercial does

Baxi Commercial is the UK and Ireland operating arm of Baxi Heating UK Limited, a privately-held subsidiary of the global BDR Thermea Group, established in 1866 in Preston, Lancashire and employing over 1,200 people. It manufactures and distributes heating and hot water solutions spanning residential combi, system, heat-only and electric boilers; air source heat pumps using R290 refrigerant (HP40/HP50/HP55/HP60); hot water cylinders; and smart heating controls. Its commercial offering extends to floor-standing and wall-hung commercial gas boilers, commercial heat pumps (Auriga HP/HP+), heat interface units, gas-fired water heaters, packaged modular plant rooms, cascade and rig systems, and plate heat exchanger kits, supported by dedicated sub-brands such as Baxi Assure for specifiers and social housing.

Commercially, Baxi combines hardware sales through a network of UK and Irish plumbing and builders merchants with a direct enterprise sales motion staffed by Area Sales Managers, Technical Sales Managers, and a 'Find an Installer' consumer channel. Recurring revenue is generated via annual maintenance and support plans for boilers and heat pumps, while service revenues come from commercial repairs, commissioning, warranties, a 24/7 technical helpline, and training courses delivered through Solutions Academy facilities in Warwick and Dartford. The MCS Umbrella Service, Baxi Design, Baxi Project Hub, and the Baxi Works installer loyalty scheme sit on top of the product base to lock in installers and simplify regulatory compliance. The company is positioning around the UK's low-carbon transition — pledging carbon neutrality in its operations by 2030, supporting the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, and aligning with the Future Homes Standard.
