Major clients are recognising heat pumps’ potential
Large commercial and public buildings are still, in the main, dependent on conventional energy sources.
New research shows the complex nature of emissions
In carbon footprint studies, heating applications have for years been the ugly stepsister to the poster-child that is transport.
Major benefits on offer with press-fit and prefab
Time and cost efficiency are key priorities in the building services industry these days. When it comes to installation, both can be found in two solutions - press-fit and prefabrication.
