Ventilation specialist Vent-Axia is launching a heat pump division in May to offer ground source and air source heat pumps for the domestic and light commercial markets.
Richard Paine has joined Vent-Axia's new heat pump division as product marketing manager. Cliff Arnold has been appointed sales manager of the new division.
'Vent-Axia currently supplies many Lo-Carbon products into the marketplace; its heat pump range will complement products, such as the Sentinel Kinetic, as part of a whole house package of measures designed to reduce the energy consumption for the homeowner' said Richard Paine.
'With the launch of the Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) in April 2011, renewables will become an increasingly attractive option for homeowners, specifiers and landlords. Heat pumps in combination with low carbon ventilation will make a valuable contribution to reducing the carbon produced by UK homes', said Cliff Arnold.
