Sentinel launch energy efficiency
campaign
Sentinel claims energy efficiency and water treatment can add up to significant profit for installers.
Sentinel has launched its new Energy Efficiency Campaign with a view to hammering home the facts about water treatment in domestic heating systems, adding further credence to the benefits of doing the job properly: "We know that there are still a significant minority of people claiming to be installers out there who are cutting corners and leaving their customers with incomplete installations, and systems that will very rapidly lose the efficiency levels that new high efficiency boilers can provide," says John Lynch, Sentinel's Director of Sales for the UK and Ireland "They do the quality installers no favours at all"

Sentinel publishes first ever independent research on the benefits of chemical water treatment in domestic heating systems.
"Cleaning a system properly, either utilising a manual flushing with Sentinel X400 or for heavily scaled and clogged systems, a jetflushing, using our heavy duty, one visit X800 cleanser, followed by proper inhibiting of the system using X100, to keep it that way, will ensure that the boiler and the system operate at optimum efficiency levels and provide welcome reduced energy bills for the householder and a system that performs as it should, responsible for significantly less CO2 emissions than a dirty, untreated system".
"It's a very simple way forward and as we've proved already, it can add a healthy chunk of profit to an installer who uses Sentinel products, even just 3 times a week".
Sentinel claims that using Sentinel products to clean and inhibit the heating systems they install or service can - on average - add around GBP100 to their income each week.

Sentinel, the UK's leading water treatment specialist, is committed to reducing the environmental impact of domestic heating systems and has commissioned independent research, carried out by GASTEC-CRE, that has shown that a poorly maintained system may experience a 2-3% reduction in boiler efficiency and up to a 15% reduction in overall system effectiveness.
For the householder that isn't funny.
