At Last! A NEW FORM OF HEATING FROM GERMANY
Simple to install, Powerful, and no more servicing - EVER!
In Germany and Austria it can get as low as -20, even -30ºC and a single snowfall can be as much as 3ft
or more overnight. To deal with this severe cold they need powerful heating able to cope with sub zero
temperatures and sudden climate change. They need excellent control and above all - low running costs
without the need for constant servicing and replacement parts.
The solution, incredibly... is electric! This incredible heating
could be the answer to help beat ever increasing energy
costs and amazingly, it is not gas or oil, or solid fuel - but
clean electric! All you need is standard supply and NO
special tariff like economy 7.
All over Europe more people are choosing to heat their
homes and offices with this very special form of electric
heating in preference to oil gas or E7. In our area, more and more of our customers are making that same
decision and when you see this incredible heating for yourself you could be next! The heating looks just
like conventional radiators, but STOP! it is very different! Put simply, that clunky central heating boiler
needing constant servicing and replacement parts isn’t the only choice anymore!
Now you can heat your homes, offices, extensions or conservatories with these incredible heaters
providing individual control over every room without the need for a central control or wasted boiler
space. This incredible German heating simply plugs in! Job Done! You can do just one room or the
whole house! This heating, whilst quite NEW in the UK has been mainstream for a very long time in
Germany and Austria. Sunflow Ltd. offer a complete solution which can include disposing of your old central heating system,
even oil tanks! Discover for yourself this incredible German heating.

Editor:
I’m Dennis and as an agent for the Works I have been distributing the Works local to your homes for many years, so it is likely that you may have seen me on my rounds.
I am now looking to submit some interesting articles, which I hope, will complement our already popular magazine.
For future issues I will be looking for local topics, your opinions (good or bad!), stories & people of interest so any suggestions would be most welcomed- please email [email protected].
As a community magazine we are always trying to extend our links with local businesses and believe that our low budget advertising offers could be the answer to promoting a company’s business during the current “credit crunch” climate.

DAVE’S TOP TIPS Power tools
No self-respecting DIY enthusiast can be without power tools. These tools are now often so cheap it seems silly not to have them seeing as they can considerably improve the ease and speed of any job. Special consideration should be given to which type and make of tool to buy- should you pick one up costing a few pounds or one costing a few hundred pounds? Only you can decide! As an example if you are re-pointing the back of a house, you are going to need a 4.5-inch angle grinder to cut out the old mortar. You could pay between £10.00 for a cheap corded one and up to £250.00 for a good quality cordless one. The cordless one would be great but comes at a premium price, at least you don't need to worry about cutting through the cord! The cheap corded one will hopefully do the job and at that price can be thrown away afterwards or you may be lucky enough to get many years service from it! Cheap cordless tools tend to be let down by the batteries, which often discharge very quickly. For this reason corded power tools are a better alternative as you can always use them without having to wait for the battery to be charged! Regards,
Dave Stevens.
If in doubt call me (see main advert for number) and I will do the investigating for you.
