Walk Ride Bath 
May I ask a dumb question ? In Bath , we have natural hot baths and I believe the Pump house was going to make use of this as a heat source (?); I wondered why there are no plans to exploit this as a useful accessible energy source on a larger scale, is there is reason it couldn’t be done by smart people?
Waters are being used to keep the Abbey warm. Unsure if you caught Countryfile the other night but they had a company using water from abandoned coal mines (20degC) with a plan to heat a new 1500 housing development. I don’t see why we can’t do something similar with the spa water but I suspect the first thing you need to do is insulate properly.
