Aga Rayburn has opened the doors to its first Home Energy Management Centre in Kidderminster. Showcasing its range of renewable energy products, woodburning stoves and ultra-efficient Rayburn A-rated central heating range cookers, the Aga Rayburn Home Energy Management Centre is thought to be the first of its kind in the UK.

The Home Energy Management Centre acts as a ‘one-stop-shop’ for installers, self-builders, architects and homeowners to find out more about renewable energy and energy management in the home.

The Centre also demonstrates how different types of heating and renewable energy products can be linked together with its newly launched Eco-Connect system – giving complete control to the user without having to adjust a multitude of settings.

The Centre has an experienced and expert team to demonstrate the range of innovative products and components which enable homeowners to make better use of renewable energy and help them to use the minimum amount of fossil fuel when running their homes.

Customers are able to walk around the full size display and see how the various components can be connected together as well as being able to ask technical or specification questions.

“Renewables are going to become increasingly important in the next few years,” predicts David Carpenter, Technical Director at Aga. “As homeowners seek ways to benefit from fuel independence and any potential grants from the Government’s Feed-In Tariffs, installers and housebuilders are going to have to develop both their skills and product knowledge, and our Home Energy Management Centre is a great place to see how easy it is to integrate renewable energy into a home – whether a new build or an existing home.” [Read more...]
