Helping making homes, cosier, safer and cheaper to heat: Honeywell advises central heating system installers at PHEX Domestic plumbing and Heating Exhibition.

Honeywell provides valuable advise, answers technical questions and demonstrates the latest heating control technologies.

BRACKNELL, UK, 26 FEBRUARY 2002 - Homes throughout Ireland can soon be cosier, electrically safer and less costly to heat because experts from the leading central heating controls supplier Honeywell are coming to Dublin and Belfast in April.  Honeywell will provide advice on installing and using central heating controls at the PHEX Domestic Plumbing & Heating Exhibitions held at the Kings Hall Conference Centre in Belfast and 15/16th April 2002 and the Red Cow Conference Centre in Dublin on 17/18th April 2002.

At the show Honeywell will demonstrate the latest heating control technologies and provide lots of advice.  “We will be there to answer installers’ problems, rather than just to show the latest products,” said Richard Edwards, Manager of Honeywell’s Trade Business.

The star of Honeywell’s display is the Smartfit system, established as a new standard for central heating control – not surprising as it was developed in response to demands for a system that is not only quick and easy to install but shows if there is a fault.

Smartfit uses plug-in, low voltage connections to ensure there are no wiring mistakes.  Smartfit is much safer for householders as its low voltages mean there is no danger of an electrical shock due to touching bare wires in the control circuits accidentally.

If the electrical system should fail, heating can be restored much faster than with a conventional system because the Smartfit display shows a fault code which the householder can pass on to their technician.  This identifies the problem so the correct parts to be taken to solve the problem in one visit.

Traditional control solutions are still important, so Honeywell is demonstrating products at DHPTE to develop this market, including reversible flow radiator thermostats and advanced controls such as the CM60 programmable room thermostat range. With the growth of combi boiler installations, Honeywell offers both wired and wireless (RF) control solutions.

Honeywell also holds regular training courses around the country to help installers keep up to date with the latest technologies.  Honeywell is also involved in lobbying the Government to raise the standard of energy efficiency controls in the UK.

All Honeywell products comply with UK and European directives and are manufactured in factories certificated to ISO 9000.

Admission to PHEX is free to installers. Visitors can register online at http://www.phexshow.co.uk
