Electric showers

Mira Showers has launched the latest incarnation of its Vie electrical showers, which now include a wholly redesigned shower unit and casing. The shower features limescale reduction technology and a double heating element. The company said that using the two elements cuts limescale because the water circulates in a greater space and there is a larger gap between both elements and the coils of each element so particles of limescale cannot settle. Fitted with left-hand water and cable entry points, the Vie is supplied in white and 8.5kW and 9.5kW variants.

Water leak detection

Water management solutions manufacturer HWM has added secondary validation to its PermaNet leak detection system which listens out for the noise of water leaking from pipes. Once a leak has been identified, the device gives operators three options to check for false positives prior to team deployment: remote correlation, remote retrieval of a detailed Aqualog noise graphic or listening to an audio file transferred to the host PC. The company said the system is easy to use and reliable, as it鈥檚 fully remotely programmable, including the ability to change sampling times and intervals.

Taps

Crosswater Holdings has designed bespoke brassware solutions for The Ampersand, a 111-bedroom hotel in the heart of London. Project architects Dexter Moren worked with Crosswater in selecting bespoke tap spouts and engraved shower plates. Dexter Moren chose fittings from the Mike Pro range, which also benefits from WRAS compliance, ensuring speedy sign off by the water undertaker. While Mike Pro is usually fitted in ultra-modern apartment projects, the company says the collection proved itself to be equally at home in the Art Deco theme throughout the bathrooms.

Damp proof membrane

F. Ball and Co. Ltd has introduced new, smaller pack sizes for its Stopgap F77 and Stopgap F78 waterproof surface membranes. Designed to minimise product wastage and increase efficiency, the 3kg Stopgap F77 pack and 6kg Stopgap F78 pack are used for controlling subfloor moisture in smaller areas. The company claims the new smaller pack sizes make it more economical for contractors to use their leading waterproof surface membranes in smaller installation areas, resulting in less wastage and reduced costs.

Water leak detection system

Aqualeak were asked to provide a solution for the problem of identifying and alerting the building control room of the presence of water affecting the critical services at The Shard building in London. The building control room controls the electricity, air handling, plant rooms and the building鈥檚 communications suites.  A major water leak in these areas would have catastrophic effects to all parts of the building, with the possibility of power and communication loss.  Following a detailed examination of the plans, each plant room was fitted with a fully integrated and maintainable / testable system which the company says quickly notifies should there be a presence of water detected.

Rainwater systems

Aluminium rainwater system manufacturer Alutec has supplied guttering and fascia and soffit products for the 鈥淔uture Proof Home鈥� being displayed at this year鈥檚 Ideal Home Show. Installed on the house was Alutec鈥檚 Evoke fascia and soffit system in RAL 7015 slate grey, which is manufactured from a recycled polyethylene core and an aluminium outer layer. The company said the range was more sustainable than solid aluminium as the composite board uses approximately 75% less energy to manufacture.
