@sue_clews1 @HeatingConsult @VietecHeating @2StarKirbs @N22XON @thoroughflush Installers First was set up for FREE to provide installers with information and an opportunity to help shape Government regulation and policy, making sure that their voice is heard, and their valuable experience is taken into consideration. :)

@HeatingConsult @VietecHeating @2StarKirbs @N22XON @thoroughflush If you guys seriously want to effect change the only way to do it is to engage properly with the industry as a group. 1.6 million boilers are installed in the UK per annum. Simply posting on here will do nothing. I asked a few times what is your goal?

Another installer benefiting for high quality demineralised water to comply with vdi2035 #VDI2035 This is ideal kit for those making the change to chemical free treatment

HAVE YOUR SAY! The debate about a mandatory plumbing licence rumbles on, and we'd like to hear your views on whether you believe it would be a good thing. Setting aside the ins and outs of cost and administration (if possible), would it help to improve the industry? Please RT

Just to keep members informed, work carries on here at @energyutilities Staff have been notified to work from home; meetings will take place remotely; there will be challenges ahead, for us and many others. Uncharted territories ahead, let’s see where it takes us. #KeepHealthy

Today we respond to the consultation on changes to Parts L & F of the Building Regs for new homes. A welcome upgrade. Homes must be future proofed & have all means of fuel type available. Standards must remain high with no corners cut to balance the books. bit.ly/2tvddcW

@VietecHeating @HHIC @phpi @Installermag @HVPmag @HVN_Plus @HpmMag @HVRwebsite @RGEMag @stylesplumbing @TradesTalk Unfortunately, it appears that these 'schemes' won't stay voluntary for long! This is a screenshot taken from the ministerial foreword......is.gd/azfas8

The government have confirmed that 'another' 'scheme' will be introduced as part of the Energy Company Obligation (ECO), what's more, if you're not part of it, you are a 'cowboy trader'! #disappointed #HVAC #REDTAPE is.gd/pzWeli

We will be at #PHEXMACHESTER tomorrow presenting on how incoming policy changes will affect #heating engineers. Take a look at this briefing and get your questions ready; is.gd/B5lDvb #HVAC

Householders rely on tradespeople like gas engineers for good advice, so it is important there are upskilling programmes for these installers to be able to advise all households on their low carbon heat options (7/13)

@Alonlineni The form was refreshed to reflect modern-day best practices, standards, and legislation. HHIC are currently looking at having an online form for engineers to complete to save time and paperwork 👍

Have you seen the new Benchmark form? HHIC are also currently investigating whether or not it is possible and feasible, to move the form online.
