A new health and safety law could put housing executives and managers in prison.

The Health and Safety Offences Act 2008, which became law in January, raised the maximum fine for most health and safety offences to £20,000; and makes imprisonment an option for many more health and safety breaches.

Süka - the Electric Heating and Home Automation Company — takes this change in the law very seriously and is organising a series of seminars to help create awareness about safer heating in homes and businesses.

In the past, it was easy for companies to get away with health and safety breaches by paying a fine, but this may no longer be the case.

Süka believes that many executives could face imprisonment over minor gas leaks or major accidents associated with inefficient gas or boilers in houses under their care.

Süka is a company firmly positioned within the low-carbon-emissions heating market, and offers slimline electrically-powered radiators as an alternative to gas, oil and coal-fired heaters. The radiators provide virtually instant heat by taking just 15 minutes of electricity to provide up to 60 minutes of radiated controllable heat.

The Süka radiators are central heating systems without boilers or pipe work, and therefore provide little risk in terms of gas or oil leakage, or accidental explosions that could qualify as health and safety breaches.

At the heart of each Süka heating system are refractory ceramic plates known as Chamotte — which combine a unique storage material with modern design and technology. Within each ceramic plate is a low wattage heating element which heats up the plate from the inside only when it needs to.

As the heating element is fully embedded within the fire plate, there is no direct exposure to the surface atmosphere, and thus no oxygen is burnt at the point of use. The secret to the Süka heating radiator is its intelligent use of energy, ensuring plenty of heat is available right through the day, while keeping running costs low.

The new health and safety laws makes it imperative for all organisations concerned with heating homes and businesses to consider a more sensible heating alternative before investing in regular gas and oil boiler inspections. Süka radiators are the perfect solution.
