Following many customer requests, and after some time in product development, we are proposing the introduction of a compact design residential riser assembly. The various options are illustrated in the images and data table below. The unit is specifically designed to be both smaller and cheaper than many risers currently available; and in addition, rather than having to work around …

On 17th March we attended a BAFSA seminar at the very picturesque Moat House in Acton Trussell, Staffordshire, focused on protecting the elderly and vulnerable from fires in residential care premises and sheltered housing. A number of presentations were given and, as usual, many thought-provoking issues were raised. Fire sprinklers within residential and domestic environments are a growing trend and …

At Sale Engineering we have noticed a recent increase in the number of requests for air compressors which are asked to perform at what are fairly low pressures and/or tight differentials. In fact, during the last quarter we have supplied over three times as many low pressure models than the previous quarter! As many of you will know, our standard …

As most of you will be aware, Sale Engineering Products already has ISO9001:2008 accreditation – something which we are proud is tested and renewed annually by TUV UK Ltd*. In conjunction with TUV, we aim to transition to the 2015 version of ISO9001 accreditation as soon as possible.

If any customer purchases one of our new units (compressor, alarm valve booster …

To quote a happy customer: “Thanks for your efforts! Fantastic service.” – that’s what our customers like, and so do we. We received a call just before 4pm to ask if we had any calibrated gauges in stock. Our gauges are calibrated to order so they’re ‘fresh’ and therefore we don’t keep them on the shelf. At 4pm our workshop …

If you are looking for easier installation and maintenance, our range of Oil Free Compressors may just fit the bill. Whilst still offering the same level of reliability and ease of installation as the lubricated versions, our oil-free models have many advantages. Without the need to regularly add and replace oil, maintenance is low and there’s also no risk of leaking …

We were asked this month for some compressor spare parts, and when we asked for the serial number, we tracked back in our quality system to find the compressor was well over 10 years old! Impressive. On the other hand, you may be surprised – as we are – that some owners of compressors for fire sprinkler systems seem to …
