The new Aico range has been designed with sealed in Lithium batteries, thus largely overcoming the problem of battery removal by the resident. The battery unit is not only tamper proof, but being Lithium (rather than standard AA batteries), cannot be used to replace batteries in other household devices. The new alarms benefit from the proven CO sensor used across all Aico CO alarms, which is precalibrated and tested in CO gas to ensure accuracy. The alarms are a completely new design - smaller, slimmer and sleeker - which is sure to suit all residential environments.

Its curved blade, makes short work of creating a clean joint, without damaging the pipe. PipeStrip is the invention of Oxfordshire builder, Mark Hatlee. He said, “Whenever I needed to make a new joint in an existing pipe, it always seemed to be encrusted with old paint. Using a flat blade, the cleaning task could take ages – and I decided that a curved blade would work better. After a few prototypes and product tests, I came up with PipeStrip.” PipeStrip is about the size of a spanner, and has a bright yellow handle, so it’s easy to find in your toolbox. It saves so much time that it pays for itself in a single use! enquiry number 909 www.nmc-uk.com SPONSORED BY Your supplier of pipe insulation When it comes to choosing the best products of 2013, there is no doubt Warmup’s 3iE energy-monitor thermostat tops the list.
