They are lined with superior sound deadening materials for really low sound levels (the sound pressure levels are down to 14.4, 13.2 and 14.4 dBA respectively).  The efficiency and performance remain the same.  All these “BY-AT” models are complete with summer bypass and frost-stat, and commissioned via an integral LCD.  Functions, including trickle, purge and boost speeds for each motor, boost speed over-run time, the time delay before the boost speed kicks in, holiday mode and night-time boost - all easily adjusted. Products are SAP PCDB Listed, manufactured in our own factory in the UK, and the information is now available in Vectaire’s new catalogue.

The features can be installed between walls, floors, skirting boards, windows, door frames and staircases throughout a building, or in specific areas such as hallways & kitchens to create maximum impact. Specified by architects and used by house builders, Renderplas PVC shadow gaps are less wasteful, safer and quicker to install than metal equivalents. The PVC is UV stable ensuring that large amounts of light from modern glass facades will not lead to discolouration. The profiles are durable and impact resistant; important when featured at skirting level where floor cleaning equipment might be in contact with the profiles. www.renderplas.co.uk 3 FIRST MATS Environmentally-conscious homeowners looking to help prevent plastic swamping the world’s oceans will love the RenewMat. With its surface made entirely from recycled plastic bottles, this polyester entrance mat has impeccable eco-credentials. Even its rubber non-slip backing is made from recycled tyres. But with its attractive raised waffle-like design, there is no indication of its unusual origins. In addition to being kind to the environment and looking good, the mat is both crush and soil resistant. It is also highly absorbent, soaking up water from wet shoes, and won’t fade with exposure to UV light. RenewMat is available from retailers First Mats in four colours, with prices starting from £28.95 (+VAT) with free UK delivery – www.firstmats.co.uk 4 OSMO UK’S FASTEST DRYING WOOD FINISH Polyx ® -Oil Express from Osmo UK is a premium fast drying wood finish guaranteed to keep wooden surfaces in top condition.
