KINGSPAN ALBION RELIABLE HOT WATER WHY USE POINT OF USE WATER HEATERS Point of use or open-outlet water heaters are terms applied to small electric water heaters that are designed to be installed very near to the sink, basin, bath or shower outlet where the water is to be used, as opposed to a main boiler or cylinder of a central heating system. Installation costs of a single point of use units are significantly cheaper than a full central heating system and are frequently the preferred choice of employers or landlords. They offer an economical solution to ensure the employers or landlords meet their legal obligations under Welfare at Work Legislation or the Landlord and Tenant Act, to provide running hot water for hygiene purposes. A point of use unit can also be a cheap alternative to extending a domestic central heating system for a new additional bathroom or utility room. QUALITY Kingspan Albion products are known for their high build quality, use of superior materials and components, to ensure you receive a safe, reliable product you can trust. With the new Ultra-flow point of use units coming with a 1-Year guarantee on all electrical components.
