The search for sustainable solutions that help to drive forward the Net Zero Carbon future of heating systems here in the UK has moved on to the use of sustainable water treatment products that will ensure clean water flowing through traditional and renewable heating systems as well as offering a raft of other benefits that will help specifiers, installers and householders.
