ohn Thompson, chief executive at the Association of Plumbing & Heating Contractors (APHC) writes about Quality Plumber Week 2020 which is set to debate the future of heating.
Quality Plumber Week is running between 5 and 11 October and we’re looking to debate what direction the heating market should take in the future in terms of alternative heating technologies and what this will mean for installers. A number of commitments made by Government means that the heating industry is going to undergo considerable change which will have direct consequences
and efficient too. If an apartment has a leak, there’s no need to check every connection point on the chain of valves, which can take a long time. All components are accessible from the front of the Tenant Valves, which makes repair jobs much faster.
Build faster and smarter
As the need for multi-occupancy buildings and high-rise living increases, plumbing contractors must adopt smarter, intelligent and time-saving technologies. The all-in-one solution not only helps in solving critical space-saving challenges but also speeds up installations, all thanks to its compact design.
At RWC, we are always on hand to offer advice on intelligent space and time-saving solutions to simplify installation challenges. So, get in touch with our team of experts for guidance on selecting the right plumbing solutions for your project.
for types of heating technologies heating engineers install. The UK has set in law a target to bring all its greenhouse gas emissions to net zero by 2050 and as part of the Government’s journey to this 2050 target they have committed to introducing the Future Homes Standard in 2025. The Future Homes Standard will see changes to Part L and Part F of the Building Regulations for new dwellings to ensure that by 2025 all new build homes will feature low carbon heating and world-leading levels of energy efficiency. This means that the majority of installers and engineers are going to have to re-train and ultimately change the way they operate as a business. We have partnered with Travis Perkins to host four online workshops during Quality Plumber Week. Travis Perkins will provide insight on current sales trends in England and Wales for alternative heat technologies and their views on how the heating industry is currently developing. We will provide an overview of what direction the heating market is most likely to take in the future in terms of alternative heating technologies and what this will mean for installers regarding developing their knowledge and skills. We want to hear from installers. The online workshop will provide opportunities for installers to share their thoughts, opinions and views on how the heating market needs to develop in terms of what alternative heat technologies should be at the forefront of Government strategy. We also want to understand what support installers feel they need from Government to help them and the industry move to alternative heating technologies. We will then compile and feed the views of installers directly into Government. Further information, including the online workshop dates, can be found at

It’s vital installers and contractors have access to quality products that offer space savings benefits, are quick to install and require minimal maintenance
