E.Tupling has released an app that allows merchants, by answering a few simple questions, to receive an instant quote for underfloor heating (UFH) and air source heat pumps (ASHP) products.
This distribution-first app is available as a website tool, perfect for trade counters, and also as a mobile download from Apple and Android. The app, which is exclusive to E.Tupling’s merchant partners only, is fully password protected.
E.Tupling recognise how busy trade counters can be and that enquiries for UFH and renewables can be time consuming and more technical than most. Merchants will have available to them, full technical support and guidance from the company's UFH & Renewables team throughout their project.
For more intricate projects, a feature allows merchants to upload plans or drawings, and E.Tupling will provide them with a schedule of materials, pipe layout design, heat loss calculation, and itemised quotation within 24 hours.
Work is underway on adding Mechanical Ventilation Heat Recovery (MVHR) to the app in the coming months.
One of E.Tupling’s customers’ Gary Fox, Trade Counter Manager at Plumbcall, explained: “This underfloor heating and air source heat pump app is incredible. Really simple and easy to use, an instant quotation is available within 4-5 clicks of the screen, empowering our staff to confidently sell UFH and ASHP’s.
“The speed of obtaining a full quote within minutes pleases our customers tenfold, this app completely takes the long hassle and lengthy detail of ordering UFH and renewables away from the trade counter, ensuring easy transactions and happy customers.
“E.Tupling also take care of the entire sale from quote to delivery and install advice. This app is truly ground-breaking for our team!”
Tim Whitehead, Managing Director at E.Tupling concluded: “Merchant feedback has always indicated the need for simplicity to secure an UFH order. Our objective will always be to protect and enable the trade counter sale at a price point that competes with the online retailer.
“A few simple clicks provide a price and we believe this completes the circle. Simplicity - competitive price - stock - service - technical support - delivery. Simple objectives, a simplified process and a comprehensive offering.”
