A handy new product that makes the best use of space when installing expansion vessels in kitchen or airing cupboards has been introduced by Altecnic, the UK's leading provider of high-quality heating and plumbing components.

Part of the Caleffi group, Altecnic has created the patented RoboKit Compact®to offer a smart solution to expansion vessel installation. Thanks to its compact, low profile design, the new addition to the market-leading RoboKit range is available in 8 litre, 12 litre and 18 litre models and is the perfect expansion vessel for sealed systems.

Yet another example of the innovative approach to heating and plumbing that has been pioneered by Caleffi and Altecnic over the last 30 years, the new RoboKit Compact®provides a ground-breaking alternative to the traditional cylindrical expansion vessel.

Offering a wider range of options to installers who would otherwise struggle with putting an expansion vessel into a limited space, the new unit is supplied with a WRAS-approved (G24 building regulations compliant) filling loop, 0-4bar pressure gauge and 3bar WRAS-approved safety relief valve. The vessel even has a built-in bracket which, combined with the Altecnic Quattro manifold, makes multi-directional installation easy.

Says Chris Ramster, Trade Sales Director: "Initially previewed at the Installer Live 2017 show in Coventry, where it was met with great interest from visitors, the RoboKit Compact®is so adaptable that it literally takes expansion vessel installation to a whole new level. Its shallow design will prove extremely popular with installers and they can fit it with complete confidence, knowing that it complies with the very latest UK and EU approvals."
