Our story

How PHC Parts has developed

Every stage of our history has brought new colleagues, expertise and products, helping us provide a more complete service to our customers.

1975

Where our story began

Powred Heating and Burner Spares Ltd began trading from central Bristol, supplying commercial and industrial heating equipment, spare parts and flue systems to contractors throughout the South West.

2003–2004

PHC was formed

Powred Heating Components was established, bringing domestic and commercial heating expertise together. This enabled us to offer customers a broader range and more efficient distribution across the South West and Wales.

2008

Firebox Stoves launched

Firebox Stoves was created as our specialist stove brand, supplying trade installers and homeowners with wood-burning and multi-fuel stoves, flue systems, spares and accessories.

2009–2014

New branches and new expertise

Branches opened in Swansea, Weston-super-Mare, Swindon and Exeter. Our growing team brought additional expertise in HVAC controls, heating spares, air conditioning and refrigeration.

2016–2019

Supporting more customers

Our network expanded through Weymouth, Birmingham, Portsmouth and Doncaster, giving more customers access to specialist local stock and knowledgeable branch teams.

2021–2023

Broader coverage and capability

Our Hengrove and Swaythling locations strengthened our coverage in Bristol and along the South Coast. In 2023, the BHC team in Weston-super-Mare became part of PHC, bringing together local expertise under one branch.

Since 2023

Truro and PHC Electrical

We have continued to develop our service with a branch in Truro, extending specialist support to customers throughout Cornwall. We have also introduced PHC Electrical, expanding our electrical range and expertise for trade customers across our branches and online.
