Announcing all new IntaMix
Anti-scald manufacturer Intatec has introduced a new version of the renowned Intamix TMV2 and TMV3 thermostatic mixing valve, featuring an improved cartridge designed to reduce the effects of scaling more efficiently.
With such a wide variety of G3-compliant products, the new IntaMix range is the most comprehensive offering of thermostatic valves for any domestic, commercial or industrial application. In addition to the standard T pattern mixing valve are MX and MS versions, fitted with service valves, and a version created especially for low pressure baths.
For the past decade, IntaMix has been Britain’s leading range of anti-scald valves, featuring the best selling 15mm and 22mm versions. The product has been improved and the range extended to coincide with the introduction of new G3 legislation which means every new or refurbished bathroom in Britain needs to be equipped with a TMV2 accredited anti-scald valve. IntaMix valves are designed for installation out of sight, either below a bath or other water outlet, where it can regulate the temperature of supply of hot water to the tap.
Intatec supports its products with technical expertise online and by telephone on 01889 272180, where engineers are able to assist with any application, specification or installation queries.

Showered with wine
A bathroom centre in Derby received a surprise visit from an Intatec mystery shopper last month, to check that the company’s sales materials and displays were all being used to good effect.
The sales team at Willbond demonstrated a good knowledge of Inta showers and also had product and promotional materials on display.
Inta’s mystery shopper programme has been created to encourage merchants and retailers to make the most of the sales collateral provided for them. Those coming up to scratch are rewarded with wine and beer.
Commenting on current trends in showering, Kirsty Cooper one of Willbond’s showroom advisors said; “We’re finding that people are going for fixed head showers, combined with exposed piping for ease of installation. The Inta Infiniti is a favourite, but it needs a good sized shower enclosure to do it justice.”
“We’re delighted to be rewarded for using our sales materials properly – after all, that’s what it’s there for, to help us to sell bathrooms.”
“As well as good product, good service and availability are important for us to be able to confidently sell a shower and that’s what we get from Inta.”
Intatec’s Steve Boyd looks after customers in the Midlands area. He said; “It’s good to see marketing materials used properly. Willbond’s showroom attractively sets out a good selection of showers. The displays allow customers to choose not only on product appearance, but also on performance.”
“Most manufacturers, including Intatec, spend a considerable amount on displays and point of sale, and all too often showrooms and trade counters don’t display materials properly. As a result they just sell the same old thing or whatever has worked its way to the top of the pile.”
“A well thought out showroom like Willbond’s and a well informed sales team gives the customer genuine choice of products and must make everyone’s job a little easier.”
