Make
a Statement with Decorative Radiator Valves from Pegler
Pegler
has recently introduced a new range of decorative radiator valves that
the company says combine elegance with reliable performace.
The
new valves are part of the well respected Terrier range of plumbing accessories
and deliver all the quality and performance suppliers have come to expect
from this well respected brand.
'As radiators become more of a feature within the home rather than just
a functional product, the demand in the industry is now for greater aesthetics,'
said Pegler Product Manager Geoff Matthews: 'Architects, interior designers
and homeowners are all now demanding a blend of beauty and performance
and Pegler is among the first to be responding to these changes in the
marketplace.'
There are six valve types available in the new range, which includes manual
and thermostatic types in a variety of styles: wheel head, lock shield
and TRVs. These are available with both angled and straight connectors
and offer the flexibility of horizontal or vertical installation.
Finished in polished chrome for that extra touch of elegance, with a cross
section of styles to suit all radiators.
The valves are available for connections to 15mm pipe sizes, with some
selected 10mm sizes and lockshield valves are also available to fit these
pipework sizes and to match all three valve types.
All Pegler's plumbing and heating control products carry the famous Pegler
'watertight' guarantee and the quality assurance of BS EN ISO 9002, BS5750
or the British Standard's 'Kitemark.'

Bristan's
Quirinius Heated Towel Rail adds Warmth to Prestigious 5 Star Hotel
Bristan
is supplying 300 heated towel rails as part of the £70m refurbishment

such as Fendi and Baccarat to help further enhance the opulence and glamour
of this luxury hotel.

renovations are due for completion at the end of September 2006.

Introducing
the New Discus from Radiating Style
This
summer sees the launch of the minimalist model of the Discus radiator
from Radiating Style, following the
trend for adding accents of colour into the home. The Discus benefits
from concealed yet accessible switching, which creates the illusion of
'floating' when mounted on the wall.
Made from a high quality composite resin it is available in a selection
of colours, such as Sky Blue, Ochre, Graphite and Flame Red. The Discus
is heated electrically with two heater settings, normal and economy, and
an optimum operating surface temperature of 80°C. However, if required,
it is also offered plumbed in. This compact radiator is available with
or without a towel rail and is sold exclusively in the UK through Radiating
Style.
Established in 1990, Radiating Style is a specialist supplier of individually
designed radiators and towel rails. With a reputation for quality, expertise
and personal service, Radiating Style offers a comprehensive selection
of models within the radiator market.
150
Year Anniversary of the Humble Radiator and the Hot Box is Still Going
Strong
While
it is commonly claimed that the Romans invented the central heating system,
the accolade for inventing the first radiator, aptly named the Hot Box,
goes to Franz San-Galli, a German living in Russia in the mid 1800s. Over
a century and a half later, MHS now
sells its own popular Hot Box but it is remarkably different from its
original namesake.
Ian Bradley, Managing Director at MHS Radiators, said: ‘Over the
years, the tendency has been towards making radiators less conspicuous
but today's trend is to really make a statement with your radiator. That
doesn't necessarily mean selecting the most contemporary model on the
market, as a more traditional model can have equal impact.‘However,
if you are tempted to decorate in a Victorian or Edwardian era, don't
be inclined to buy the old cast-iron variety from reclamation or salvage
yard. These will not offer the performance or energy efficiency assured
by modern engineering and sourcing missing valves can often be an added
complication.’
The Hot Box
The sleek, angled contours of the stainless steel Hot Box offer a stylish
contemporary solution to bathroom heating, coupled with the practicality
of effective storage capability. Each box delivers an output of 364 watts
providing a comfortable and stylish approach to heating towels.
The
New Clasico
The chic New Clasico combines a contemporary grace and sleek curves with
a slim column design. It is available in heights ranging from 288mm to
870mm, and offers the complete versatility of being primed ready for painting
or finished in one of MHS's beautiful RAL colours.

New
Radiators Offer Gentle, Energy Saving Heat and Improved Air Quality
A
simple way to save energy in the home is provided by the electric radiator
from the Corner Fridge Company, which
offers an economical and stylish method of heating all rooms - without
affecting air quality.
The
Solaris® glass radiator distributes heat evenly across a flat glass
panel. The radiant heat emitted is immediately felt by the body as it
does not rise.
The gentle heat provided does not dry the air or circulate dust particles
because there is no fan and no resistance in contact with the ambient
air. This creates a clean and healthy atmosphere, which is important when
you are concerned with the quality of air in the home.
The radiant heating creates a more uniform temperature from floor to ceiling,
with a difference of only 1°C between an average floor to ceiling
height. Even when switched off, the radiator will continue to radiate
a gentle heat for a long time.
Because heat convection is limited you don't have to overheat for comfort.
This means that you can lower the thermostat by just 1°C and make
an energy saving of 6%.
The visible decorative surface is made of extra strong glass and is available
in a range of enamelled colours. The radiators can be fitted horizontally
or vertically and a number of sizes and different power outputs are also
available.
Details of the full range are available on the company's website at http://www.warmcorner.co.uk.
Warm Corner is a trading company of The Corner Fridge Company.
New
Models Strengthen Ideal's Icos Range
Ideal
Boilers
has further strengthened its icos HE range of high-efficiency heat-only
boilers by introducing two new models - the icos HE 30 and icos HE 36.
The two new models are compact in size and retain many of the general
features of the icos range, including fully modulating operation and a
wide range of fluing options. Both models are SEDBUK A rated and have
high-efficiency levels which will meet all the requirements of Part L2
of the Non Domestic Building Regulations, which comes into force in April
2006. With outputs ranging from 10.4 to 30.1kW for the HE 30 model and
10.4 to 37.0 kW for the HE 36, both models are suitable for either larger
domestic properties or smaller commercial installations.
The
company says that in keeping with the rest of the icos HE range, the new
models offer flexibility of siting, ease of installation and advanced
reliability. As well as standard concentric horizontal and vertical flues,
optional 80mm diameter twin-pipe fluing offers significantly longer lengths
that can be run either horizontally or vertically. This means that the
icos HE 30 and HE 36 can be installed much further away from the outside
wall and will fit safely and unobtrusively in almost any situation. Both
models also feature LED diagnostics for fast and easy servicing and maintenance
and are light weight for easy transport and installation.
The icos HE 30 and HE 36 are both automatically controlled, fan-flued
high-efficiency boilers and modulate heat output to suit the demands of
the heating load. Both models also incorporate a variable thermostat for
CH temperature control, adjustable from 30°C to 82°C. Awkward
site condensate drainage can be overcome using the optional Ideal condensate
pump kit.
‘Ideal prides itself on offering the widest range of HE wall hung
heat-only boilers,’ commented Dave Simpson, marketing director, Ideal
Boilers.
‘Within the icos range there are now six models to choose from ranging
from 12 kW to 36 kW and offering installers more choice for a wider variety
of installations. Building on our existing range of icos HE boilers, the
two new models feature well proven design technology offering both simplicity
and reassurance for installers and end users alike.’
Both models benefit from good system tolerance thanks to Cast Aluminium
heat exchangers and modern styling means each model will complement any
interior. No cupboard ventilation is required.
Each model is 645mm x 450mm x 400mm and has an installation weight of
52.6 kg.

Bristan
Turns Up the Heat on Towel Rails
As
part of the brand's development into new product areas, Bristan
is now offering its customers a full range of heated towel rails.
The new Bristan Towel Rail collection is designed to offer its customers
as much choice as possible, with designs to complement everything from
a contemporary chic look to classic elegance. What's more a broad selection
of sizes and heat outputs are also available to ensure that the Bristan
portfolio has a solution for each and every application and budget.
Commenting on the new market sector Judith Gibbons, Head of Marketing
for the Bristan Group adds: ‘We recognise that customers purchase
a towel rail based on 4 different criteria: design (to match their bathroom
scheme); size (to physically fit into the available space); output (to
heat the bathroom) and price. The importance of the reasons may change
from customer to customer, but 'style' is in pole position and that is
why it has been of paramount importance in the creation of the Bristan
Heated Towel Rails range.’

Style
and Environmental Credentials in One Radiator?
With
new targets set by the Government to encourage individuals and businesses
to recycle, MHS’s new Decoral
Ten radiator means householders hoping to ‘do their bit’ for
the environment, do not need to sacrifice on aesthetics. This contemporary
radiator brings together the benefits of recycled aluminium with designer
style, to create a practical and beautiful heat emitter.
Ian Bradley, MD for MHS Radiators, said, 'Nearly four million tonnes of
aluminium were scrapped in the EU during 2004, so recycling the material
can only be positive for the environment.'
Recycled aluminium is also not the only reason that this radiator has
less impact on the environment: it is also extremely energy efficient
with a better ratio of size to output than a conventional steel panel
radiator of identical dimensions.
Aluminium is also a solution for homeowners looking to be creative with
their heating systems, offering far greater potential for unusual and
original shapes and styles.
For those who love column radiators but don’t really have the space,
Decoral Ten is the futuristic alternative.

Stelrad
Radiators Flying High with Launch of New Concord
As
homeowners continue to get on board the designer radiator phenomenon,
Stelrad Radiators has launched its
latest designer offering, the Concord, to help installers cash in on the
growing trend.
Part
of Stelrad's new Lifestyle range, the Concord collection includes four
models - the Slimline, the Vertical, the Plane and the Lo-Line model.
Each model will provide a stylish yet practical heating solution for any
room in the home and is available in a wide range of sizes and colours.
With its flat tube design, the Concord Plane offers an alternative to
a standard radiator design, creating an up-to-date and simple look, while
providing practical and efficient heating. The Concord Slimline and Vertical
designs are also suitable for creating a focal point in any room, from
a living area with contemporary furnishing to a modern office space.
In contrast, the Lo-Line model is suitable for odd-shaped or restricted
areas. This discreet, space-saving radiator will fit neatly underneath
low shelving or window sills and creates a minimalist look.
‘Homeowners have really bought into the designer radiator craze,’
said Ian Taylor, business development director, Stelrad Radiators. ‘They
are no longer merely interested in the practical function of a radiator
and are instead looking for products that will transform their homes.
For installers this can only be a good thing. The potential profit margin
for designer radiators is huge and the success of this market is proof
that consumers are prepared to pay a considerably higher price for high
quality products. Our new range of Concord designer radiators will provide
homeowners with yet more choice and installers with the potential to make
even more profit.’
In addition to the Concord collection, Stelrad also offers a wide range
of panel and designer radiators.
