In thanks for our fortunate position, we have again asked some key …
As our regular customers, or at least their fitters, may have noticed, for some time now we have been including a little brew/treat pack in each box of ‘proper kit’ purchased, including compressors, Zone Guardian, Initiation Boards, Alarm Valve Booster Pumps, and multiple purchases of smaller items. Want to know what’s in it? Well, you know what you need to …
SEP’s FREE customer training sessions are going down a storm in Stockport, with our latest visitors saying; “I have had some extremely positive feedback from the lads; they really enjoyed it and gained a lot so thank you very much.
