Helping installers to educate their customers on how they can get more efficiency gains, this month Drayton will be hosting a live expert panel, covering everything they’ll need to know about low flow temperatures.
Taking place on Thursday 27th January at 7pm on The Drayton Community Facebook group, Drayton will be joined by Richard Burrows, Kim Betty, Jo Alsop, Paul Hull and Rob Berridge, who will be sharing their knowledge on this hot topic.

New research has been released as UK gas prices soar by 40% to record highs. As the heating industry rises to the challenge of long-term decarbonisation and supporting households hit by higher energy costs, what can be done in the short term to lower heating costs and carbon emissions?

From energy price rises to COP26, the way in which we use energy is big news.

On 19th October 2021, the government launched its much anticipated Heat and Buildings Strategy, and it notes that we need nothing less than a revolution in heating markets and skills during this decade to decarbonise UK buildings.

At Drayton by Schneider Electric we welcome the Government’s Heat and Buildings Strategy published today. Buildings are responsible for 20% of all UK carbon emissions, therefore this Strategy is an essential step on the UK’s road to Net Zero by 2050. With COP 26 just around the corner, the policies announced today demonstrate the UK’s desire to lead from the front in tackling climate change, and we look forward to seeing them followed through.

We’re delighted to tell you that Wiser was recently declared a winner in the 2021 TechRadar Work From Home Awards.
Wiser was praised for its ability to provide total control via our intuitive Wiser Home app, allowing users to tweak heating schedules in just a few taps and providing control of up to 16 separate zones to take care of everyone’s comfort, no matter what their schedules.

Wiser is evolving. Our intuitive smart heating control system has been enhanced with the eagerly awaited introduction of the Wiser Underfloor Heating Controller and Wiser Electrical Heat Switch, providing heating engineers and homeowners with a go-to solution for all types of heating systems.

In a crucial year for climate change action and amplifying voices for industry change heard ahead of COP26, Drayton are proud to sponsor the BEAMA Zero Carbon Homes webinar series, on achieving net zero homes in a more sustainable future.

As a leading heating controls manufacturer, we aim to provide a leading online training resource, to help you get everything you need to know about Drayton products and their features. This September we updated the 9° Know How online training academy with a sleek new design and two brand new (and free) training modules.

The heating may have been off for the last few months, but we’ve been busy improving the sustainability of our operations, putting in place practices that will help us achieve our goal of becoming a Net Zero site by 2025, a commitment we’ve made to our planet, our communities and our staff.

Here’s an update on what we’ve been up to on our path to better sustainability.
