This is costly and has associated long term risks. The new Schöck Isokorb type AXT offers a cost-effective and more thermally efficient alternative – with no wrapping required. Its 120mm insulation thickness results in low psi-values, significantly reducing heat loss. It allows greater freedom of design and there is no risk of any additional thermal bridging through balustrade fixings. The Schöck Isokorb type AXT solution does not require maintenance and there is no risk of expensive restoration due to waterproofing problems. Inta has introduced its ‘HIPER’ high performance heat interface unit (HIU), designed to deliver heating and hot water whilst improving energy efficiency and minimising costs in multi-dwelling developments. Installed in shared residential buildings, the HIU distributes heating and domestic hot water from a central plant system to individual properties. By removing the need for each area to have a conventional boiler, gas flue and hot water cylinder, the interface units dramatically reduce build costs for developers. Inta has worked to develop a product that has more features and benefits than any other HIU on the market. With Inta’s HIPER HIU, landlords can integrate renewable energy sources into the system, shrinking the size of a building’s carbon footprint and reducing energy costs for tenants, as well as improving reliability.

SMITH’S SPACESAVER SS80 NARROWER FIT! 7000 SERIES OF DIGITAL MOISTURE METERS Smith’s Fan Convectors has launched a new version of its market-leading Space Saver plinth heater to fit 80mm plinth heights. The new slim-line SS80 kitchen heater from Smith’s is the only plinth Picture shows Smith’s new plinth slim-line SS80 kitchen heater heater available in Europe that fits IKEA-style 80mm plinth heights. In the first of a number of innovations for the product, Smith’s has designed a new Space Saver hydronic plinth heater to fit much narrower plinths found in kitchen designs popular from Scandinavia and Germany. Like its taller counterparts, installing the Space Saver SS80 frees up wall space for extra wall surfaces and more storage or desirable kitchen appliances, instead of home owners having to make do with a panel radiator. The Space Saver is a key appliance for the New Build and RSL markets, as well as for the mainstream consumer. It offers efficient, controllable warmth to kitchens where space is at a premium. Installers can use it to replace a radiator and because it will work off any wet central heating system, it’s a simple replacement that gives so much more to the end user. British made, the 7000 series Moisture Meters are compact hand held instruments designed for building professionals and tradesmen. Both units incorporate an easy to read LED display.

Optional extras include, colour-coded protective silicone boot– making the instrument waterproof to IP64 and preventing against accidental damage on site, a deep wall probe and a heavy duty hammer probe. Each moisture meter is supplied in a protective zip wallet, and is competitively priced, at £60 each for model 7250 (order code 224-075) or £80 each for model 7000 (order code 224-070) - all prices are exclusive of VAT, available direct from www.etiltd.com The SS80 is now available nationally from all good merchants, online stockists and branches of Wickes.
