Gauges & Hoses High-quality gauges and hoses are indispensable to heating engineers. Gauges are vital for measuring and monitoring pressure, temperature, and other critical parameters in a boiler’s system. Pressure gauges help ensure that the system operates within safe limits, preventing over-pressurisation, while temperature gauges are essential for maintaining optimal performance and efficiency and preventing overheating.

Radiator Servicing Heating engineers need tools such as radiator bleed keys and drain-down kits to eliminate trapped air and maintain optimal flow in the radiators. Proper radiator servicing ensures that heat is evenly distributed throughout a building, reducing energy wastage and enhancing comfort. Regular radiator servicing also extends the life of these heating elements, saving homeowners and building managers time and money.

Pipework Repair When it comes to repairing pipework, Pipe Freeze kits are a great option for heating and plumbing engineers. They save vast amounts of time as you do not need to drain down the system, there is hardly any clearing up to be done, and there is no disruption to your customers’ homes or workplaces. They are also extremely easy to use.

Abrasives & Brushes Customers want their heating systems to be as efficient and last as possible. Although they might seem simple tools, abrasives and brushes play a significant role in ensuring heating systems stay fit for purpose for longer. Over time, heating systems accumulate deposits like scale, rust, and corrosion. These impede heat transfer and reduce the system's efficiency. Abrasives and brushes help effectively remove these deposits, allowing the system to function optimally.

Temperature, Gas & Pressure Testing One of the most critical aspects of boiler care is ensuring the system's integrity. This requires a range of test equipment to monitor temperature, gas levels and pressure. Regular use of this equipment during boiler installations and maintenance can prevent potential hazards, improve energy efficiency and extend the system's life. Look for models with clear, easy-to-read LCD screens that accurately measure various units and scales. Pumps with extra-long hoses, like the Arctic Hayes Digital Pressure Vessel Hand Pump, which has a three-metre hose, means you can easily access hard-to-reach areas.
