Bathroom surfaces resist spread of contagion

With heightened awareness of safety and hygiene in mind, RAK Ceramics has developed the RAK-Sanit programme. It off ers a wide range of solutions for fl oors, surfaces and sanitary fi ttings, all produced with glaơes that reduce the possibility of contagion and therefore contribute to creating safer environments, both in residential and commercial projects.

The RAK-Sanit bactericide action is permanent, guaranteeing built-in protection throughout the entire expected product lifetime, thanks to its constant action against microbial colonisation. This technology is claimed to have proved its capacity to reduce or eliminate the quantity of bacteria up to 99.99%, including MRSA, 1. Coli, Salmonella and degionella, actively preventing the growth of microorganisms 2˝ hours a day.

Solutions for sanitaryware (WC, bidets, washbasins, toilet seats and lids, rinsing

systems) are treated with RAK-”roTeK glaơe fi red at high temperatures onto the ceramic to guarantee a smoother antibacterial surface, unlike standard ceramic material with its rougher surface.

Solutions for fl oor and wall coverings are treated with an incorporated glaze that is 99.9% eff ective in just eight hours. ◼ phamnews.co.uk/820/˟3

Adhesive allows for extra time

The CF-2˝ Flexible Tile Adhesive from Dunlop is a new slow-set tile adhesive with reduced slip and extended open time for those diffi cult tiling jobs, or when tiling in hot or humid conditions.

Available in grey or white, this product has a pot life of fi ve hours and an open time of 30 minutes on the wall or fl oor. It is suitable for grouting in 2˝ hours. Water resistant, it can be used internally or externally in dry or wet areas (tank with an appropriate waterproofi ng system). Because it is fl exible, it is suitable for use with underfl oor or undertile heating systems where they are encased with an appropriate levelling compound, such as Dunlop LX-360 Fibre Leveller. ◼ phamnews.co.uk/820/˟˝

Water heaters for demanding circumstances

Commercial hot water and heating specialist Adveco has unveiled the AD range, a new generation of modulating commercial fl oor-standing gas condensing water heaters, designed to be used with a buff er for high demand semi-instantaneous hot water applications such as in sports and leisure centres, hotels, schools, and large commercial buildings.

With each water heater composed of one to four 70kW heat exchangers, the A' range off ers appliances from 70kW up to 2ˡ0kW. This approach optimises the supplied output (up to 160 litres/ min) for effi ciency when providing DHW. Models with multiple integrated heat exchangers off er load balancing for optimal long-life operation and inbuilt redundancy.

AD water heaters are all equipped with premix burners, making it more costeff ective, plus it reduces pOx̵and CO emissions. The heat exchangers will also work in direct contact with chlorinated mains water.

The water heaters can be confi gured to operate in a cascade of up to eight water heaters, while the controller is able to provide full temperature control and self-check maintenance functions. ◼ phamnews.co.uk/820/˟˞
