The BMF have developed and issued four new Selling Guides to help members increase their knowledge in specialist product areas, advise customers accordingly and supply the correct products for each installation.
The latest guides cover heating controls, timber decking, lintels, and door accessories and offer clear, concise and up-to-date information.
Heating Controls
Explains the minimum requirements on any new or replacement Combi or Conventional boiler system, in accordance with Building Regulations. It also categorises each of the individual control systems available and describes the uses and advantages of the various systems.
Timber Decking
Offers information on the different types of deck boards available, standards ratings and suitability for different usage. It also highlights additional sales opportunities and reconfirms the importance of selling the correct decking fixings, offering specific ‘Dos and Don’ts’ selling tips.
Lintels
Includes a break down of standard and special types of lintels available and their specific requirements. A useful ‘What you need to know’ section highlights the information a merchant needs from a customer in order to sell the correct product.
Door Accessories (Non-fire)
