Secon Renewables has partnered with Viessmann Climate Solutions to become a stockist of Viessmann’s most popular domestic air source heat pump range, the Vitocal 150-A/151-A. Stock of the full range is available with immediate effect.
The Sunderland-based renewables distributor supplies heat pumps, cylinders, solar and other energy-efficient products to installers and merchants across the UK and Ireland. This new partnership will support the growing UK heat pump market, with additional stock of Viessmann Vitocal heat pumps available via a distributor that is already well-established and trusted in the renewables space.
“We have been looking to get Viessmann on board for some time. We already distribute the majority of Viessmann’s solar thermal systems in the UK and are therefore very pleased to have developed a mutually-beneficial supply deal for air source heat pumps as well,” said Nigel Jefferson, Commercial Director at Secon Renewables.
“There is a good fit between Viessmann and Secon Renewables, with both companies going above and beyond in terms of offering additional value to their customers. Secon, for example, has its own training academy and on-call technical support; likewise, we are really impressed with the Viessmann’s MCS umbrella Access scheme and the Vi-Guide technical service App. Together, our various initiatives provide a significant helping hand to the burgeoning heat pump market, introducing potential new installers to the industry in the right way”.
Chris Johnson, Sales Director at Viessmann Climate Solutions UK, said, “The team at Secon Renewables is incredibly knowledgeable, having sold heat pumps and provided hands-on advisory support to installers for over a decade. In addition, heat pumps take up a lot of warehouse space, compared to boilers for example, and Secon offers a very attractive stock-holding capability. This partnership will undoubtedly increase the adoption of Viessmann products among the UK installer base.”
Secon Renewables carries over £2 million of stock in its 27,000 sq ft warehouse with the ability to ramp up on demand. It offers next day delivery to almost all parts of the UK.
The Viessmann Vitocal domestic air source heat pump range comprises the Vitocal 150-A and Vitocal 151-A with integral 190-litre DHW cylinder. With outputs from 4 to 16 kW and providing a maximum flow temperature of 70 °C, each model has the capacity to provide both heating and cooling and are available to purchase for connection to single-phase electricity supply, with three phase models also available for the 10 to 16 kW variants. They are notable for their environmental credentials using R290 natural propane refrigerant, which is one of the most climate-friendly and cost-effective available with a Global Warming Potential (GWP) of only 0.02.
