In the heating and plumbing industry, it's often the small challenges that consume the most time. A weeping compression fitting, protecting a customer's home, or draining a heating system without creating a mess can all add unnecessary frustration to an otherwise straightforward job. At Arctic Hayes (Part of the DiversiTech group), we spend a lot of time listening to Merchants and installers and understanding the real-world challenges they face every day. That's why our latest range of products has been developed with one goal in mind: helping engineers work smarter, faster and more professionally on-site. Let's take a look at four new additions designed to tackle common industry frustrations head-on.

Few things are more frustrating than revisiting a compression joint because of a small leak. The new Arctic Hayes Easi-Seal™ Insert has been developed to help engineers achieve reliable, leak-free connections with minimal effort.

Designed to convert standard 15mm compression fittings into flat-face sealed connections, the Easi-Seal™ uses an integrated O-ring sealing design that removes the need for PTFE tape, jointing compounds or additional sealing materials. It's a simple drop-in solution that can save valuable installation time while providing greater confidence in the finished connection.

Key benefits include:
• Eliminates the need for additional sealing compounds
• Reduces the risk of leaks
• Reusable design
• Suitable for hot and cold water applications
• Rated up to 16 bar pressure

When reliability matters, Easi-Seal™ provides a straightforward upgrade to a traditional compression fitting.

For today's installer, delivering excellent workmanship is only part of the job. Customers also expect their homes to be respected and protected throughout the installation process.

The Arctic Hayes Dirty Slippers offer a reusable alternative to disposable overshoes, helping engineers maintain a professional appearance while significantly reducing waste. Manufactured from 100% neoprene, these durable overshoes feature a non-slip, non-marking sole that helps prevent dirt and debris being transferred around the property.

Additional features include:
• Elastic pull cords for a secure fit
• Quick tie and release mechanism
• Machine washable construction
• Abrasion-resistant sole
• Available in sizes S to XL

It's a small investment that can leave a lasting positive impression with customers.

Draining heating systems can often be messy, inefficient and difficult to manage, particularly in occupied properties. The Arctic Hayes 32L Drain Kit has been developed as a complete drainage solution that helps engineers capture, control and dispose of water safely and efficiently.

Featuring a generous 32-litre drain tray, adjustable outer rim, integrated drain tap and three magnetic funnels, the kit helps minimise spills while adapting to a wide range of maintenance and installation scenarios. The supplied 3-metre flexible hose allows engineers to direct water exactly where it needs to go without kinking or interruption.

Benefits include:
• Reduced risk of water damage
• Faster deployment on-site
• Improved control during draining operations
• Greater protection for customer properties

For engineers looking to improve efficiency and professionalism when draining systems, this is a practical addition to any van stock.

To further enhance the capabilities of the 32L Drain Kit, Arctic Hayes has also introduced three new Pump Kits compatible with 18V Dewalt, Makita or Milwaukee batteries. These battery-powered solutions transform the drain tray into a powered water removal system, allowing engineers to pump water away quickly, cleanly and with minimal supervision. Designed specifically to work with the Arctic Hayes 32L Drain Tray, the system features a 3-metre hose, multiple debris filters and a water transfer rate of up to 10 litres per minute.

Key advantages include:
• Faster water removal
• Reduced chance of overflows and spills
• Portable and lightweight operation
• Compatible with existing 18V Dewalt, Makita or Milwaukee batteries
• Ideal for busy service and maintenance engineers

Together, the Drain Kit and Pump Kit provide a complete drainage solution designed around the needs of modern installers.
