An integral part of heating interface unit (HIU) structure, the PM valve is designed to divert all primary heat to the domestic hot water side of the system, providing the end user with a fast and efficient hot water supply. WilSon Energy worked directly with the manufacturer to commission a valve which fits most types of unit and will be deployed in WilSon’s new own range of HIUs.

The launch is significant, as it will reduce costs and maximise energy efficiency for end customers. Due to a shortage in supply, plumbing and heating engineers have had to refurbish existing valves where possible, or even replace entire HIUs, costing time and money.

Andy Wilkinson, CEO at WilSon Energy, said: “Along with the rest of the sector, we have experienced a growing frustration with lack of product availability, which is why we took the initiative to commission a new alternative PM valve.

“Three variations of new valve are available, with a single valve able to handle both heating and sanitary functions, manufactured using 100% lead free brass. It incorporates a rotatable heating sleeve for setting different flow rates, as well as an integral 3-fold water-free ‘O’ ring seal which ensures separation of the sanitary and heating functions, providing a significant improvement over previous options.

“Working directly with the manufacturer on the valve’s design has given us the opportunity to include some additional technical features to bring the previous version up to date. We’re looking forward to meeting demand by providing installers with a modern and versatile product that will boost efficiency and service, providing benefits to everyone.”

The hydraulic PM valves offer solutions for HIU parts replacement in KaMo, KVM Energy, Delta Systemtechnik, Meibes, Danfoss-Redan, Flamco, Taconova and many more HIU systems.
