The only water treatment company working with the carbon trust

16-Sep-2009 Watermatic is a division of Sentinel Performance. Sentinel has become the first water treatment company in the heating and plumbing sector to be given the right to use The Carbon Trusts’ Carbon Reduction Label. And not just on one, but two of its top selling products.
Integrated sustainability solutions provider Sustain carried out the carbon footprint assessment of both products using life cycle assessment techniques.

Sentinel, by working with Sustain, has been able to calculate the carbon emissions generated in the production, distribution and use of these products. The outcome is that if you treat a typical central heating system using Sentinel X100 , after cleaning it with Sentinel X800, you can maintain a restored efficiency of, on average, 2.6%. This equates to an annual energy emission saving of 38kgCO2 for a typical home.
