ABB's drives for the HVAC sector are now supported by software drivers for the Compass protocol conversion system, from North Communications.
It can be fitted to any modern single or double panel radiator, up to 6ft long and weighing a maximum 105kg.
Malcolm Keeling said: "Gaining access to the wall behind a radiator is usually an aggravating process which requires bleeding, draining and disconnecting it".
"The Rotarad system removes the need for all that, making it ideal for any professional tradesman or amateur DIY enthusiast who would like to paint or clean behind." "It is easily fitted between the radiator and radiator valve, and sits discreetly behind the radiator when not in use".
Distribution of the product, which has been designed in partnership with plumbing fittings manufacturer IBP Conex, is centred from the company's new premises in Creswell, Staffs.
It will also be demonstrated and formally launched at the Homebuilding and Renovation Show at the NEC in April.
