COVID-19 UPDATE
Hopefully you're all happy, healthy and ready to join Team Hippo....
Current lead times are 8-10 weeks as we wait for parts to arrive (each frame is made lovingly by hand...).
We are also still taking in repairs and services. Don't forget your Hippo needs to be serviced every 12 months... as with all gas boilers! It's very important to stay safe. All boilers need servicing and checking to ensure they burn and run smoothly and safely.
Please continue to support us, and other small businesses as we are all very affected by the current situation.
And don't forget to STAY SAFE!
Much love, Mr & Mrs Hippo, Lyndsay the Administrator Extraordinaire and Simon the Hippo Builder & Wrapper.
HIPPO SHOWERS- WE ARE A FAMILY BUSINESS
MADE IN UK
Frames are handmade in Lincolnshire
We started off making the frames in our shed... but now they're made in a slightly bigger building about 2 miles from home. With each one being handmade by us, we can guarantee they're made to work... for the job they're designed for.
POWDER COATED
They're all powder coated by a Very Nice Man, just down the road.
We used to hand spray the frames... but Mr Hippo ended up with very colourful nostril hair... and it wasn't as hardwearing as powder coating. So now we powder coat our frames to ensure they last. As we do each one to order, we can personalise them or colour match them.
GAS SAFETY
All gas boilers are tested and commissioned before they leave us.
We also take the boilers back for their annual service and repairs.
We pride ourselves on the reliability of our boilers. They're designed to work. Using a battery powered pulse ignition, and no 'pilot' light to blow out, we proudly stand high above all our competitors. And we're so confident, we offer a 5 year guarantee on everything we make.
