Product News HellermannTyton launches
Rack-a-Tier wire dispenser in XL HellermannTyton has responded to customer demand by launching an XL version of its best-selling Rack-A-Tier wire dispenser.
T
he cable management specialist’s new, larger dispenser can help to make jobs quicker and easier for electricians by now being able to accommodate bigger cable drums. Rated for reels up to 1m in size and for weights up to 226kg, the XL dispenser is designed to hold larger cable drums safely and can be easily adapted to suit various drum sizes. Equipping professionals with a solution that removes complexity from installations, the dispenser also has multifunctional use as a sawhorse, workbench, and pipe vise.
Nathan Bennett, product manager, commented: “A big part of creating eff ective solutions for the electrical market involves listening to those who know what they need.
Once our customers told us about their issues with larger cable drums, we provided a solution with the Rack-A-Tier XL!”
The Rack-A-Tier family of tools has become a
fi rm favourite amongst installers and contractors since launching in 1995. The original model is favoured among the electrical trade, with many installers buying multiple units to support them on every job. As larger cable drums become a familiar feature on modern jobs, the XL dispenser means electricians can continue to rely on a trusted product that has grown with the industry. At 55cm tall and 33cm wide, the XL model is versatile and robust, and boasts waterproof and rustproof capabilities to ensure its longevity. Importantly, it has retained the same trusted and reliable material: an ultra-durable high-density
polyethylene structural foam, as found in the original.

Installation News Vent-Axia’s solution to D
IY YouTuber Rob Ford, who is refurbishing a four-bedroom, double- fronted 1930s house, discovered that PIV was an ideal ventilation solution to his condensation and mould problems, leading him to install the Vent-Axia PureAir Home PIV with integral heater in the loſt . The refurbishment had been going well, however when last winter’s gas price rises went up, Rob reduced the house’s heating. As a result, the house fi rst had a problem with condensation and then black mould. The addition of cavity and roof insulation then made it worse because of a lack of ventilation. A window vacuum removed the condensation in the mornings, but did not prevent the condensation and mould from returning every day.

condensation and mould Ventilation manufacturer Vent-Axia has solved the problem of condensation and mould in a 1930s home.
“Our windows used to be completely fi lled with water, but after installing the Vent-Axia PureAir Home PIV the condensation has gone. After a while I wondered whether the condensation had disappeared just because the weather was warmer so I turned the unit off for a week and guess what? The condensation came back. I turned the unit back on and it disappeared again,” said Rob. “As for noise, once we fi tted it and closed the loft hatch we have not noticed any noise coming from the unit.”
Simple to install, air is drawn into the PureAir Home unit via the loft from outside and incoming air is fi ltered via the high-grade ISO ePM10 (G4) or optional upgrade ePM2.5 (F7) fi lters, removing nasty contaminates before gently introducing it into the habitable areas of the property. The diff user directs
the airfl ow upwards where the incoming air mixes with the warm air that gathers at ceiling height. Designed to improve indoor air quality (IAQ) and prevent moisture build-up, the PureAir Home off ers a highly eff ective solution to control condensation and mould, as well as off ering high levels of air fi ltration. Providing fi ltered, tempered air (heater model only) into the home, that is drier than the inside air, the PureAir Home creates an indoor environment where condensation and mould fi nd it hard to exist.
