Panasonic forms renewables partnership with distributors

To help make its renewable-heating solutions for the social housing and new-build sectors, readily available, Panasonic has set up a trading relationship with the Travis Perkins Group which will see Plumbing Trade Supplies, BSS Industrial and City Plumbing Supplies supplying the Aquarea range of heat pumps.

Ian Stares, product director of PTS Renewables, says, ‘With the RHI very much on the industry agenda, our aim is to be able to provide customers with a wide selection of renewable-energy solutions. Heat pumps are likely to be the main beneficiary of the RHI, and we were keen to establish relationships with market-leading companies which provide these systems.

‘Panasonic offers one of the most comprehensive, versatile and cost-effective range of branded air-to-water heat pumps on the market.’
