Pegler Yorkshire's National Sales Manager - Renewables, David Feehan, gave me a very warm welcome when I visited the stand and took time out to talk me through the company's products.

Pegler Yorkshire supplies a comprehensive range of products and services for the plumbing and heating sectors and offers what David says is an unrivalled portfolio of market leading brands.

Ecobuild saw the launch of the Meibe range, which incorporates the latest valve technology and offers a range of pump stations and thermal accessories, suitable for use on hot water systems with collector sufaces ranging from single to multi facing panels.

Also on show was the new T555 tap, which is designed for thermostatic safety.

"Its thermostatic, anti-scald performance has been designed and developed to eliminate any possibility of scalding by mixing hot and cold water at a safe, pre-set temperature (with a pre-set temperature of a maximum 46°C), while delivering excellent flow rates," explained David. "It works even where pressure is low."

"As well as being safe and versatile, the T555 also makes sound economic sense. Costs are saved by not having to purchase a separate electric shower, or separate bath taps, the cost of installing a radial ringmain and of course, additional electrician and plumber's labour costs are also avoided and all made at the installation stage.

"Thereafter, users will continue to enjoy significant savings on annual maintenance costs too. This is a tap to be maintained by a plumber – there is no need to get a joiner or other qualified personnel to remove the bath panel before servicing can take place."

"But while cost saving is always a consideration, it is it's safety features that really set the T555 apart. There is a fast shut off for maximum safety - I believe the T555 is currently the only tap to have been awarded a pass by BuildCert for 46° cold water shut off) - and in addition each tap has full traceability, right down to the date and time of manufacture."

With new additions on hot water safety being included in Part G of the Building Regulations, the T555 has arrived at the right time, ensuring compliance with the regulations and protecting users from the dangers of scalding hot water, plus protection from the thermal shock that can occur if the hot water supply fails.
