The Heat Pump Mover is designed to help installers manoeuvre pumps around site. The mover simply becomes an extension of the pump, making it safer, easier and more effective.
Lite Work Designs is launching its new Heat Pump Mover at InstallerSHOW at a special price of £195 with free delivery and no VAT.
CEO Mike Wyeth is an installer. He previously struggled to move heat pumps around sites without injuring himself or damaging the pump. The sheer size and weight of these pumps often needs up to four people or a forklift to move them safely.
Mike says: “When moving a pump across a building or customer site, we really struggle. We get the job done but it’s hard work and sometimes a bit embarrassing. The mover simplifies the process – secure the mover to the pump and off you go, it really is that simple.
“I want installers to get the benefits I’ve enjoyed with the mover for the past 3 years. We now have a production version ready which we are selling directly to installers and having positive discussions with global pump manufacturers, EU/UK product distributors and large UK installers”.
Is it safer?
The mover was designed and tested for someone in a hurry on a cold, wet Monday morning after a heavy weekend, who has just been asked to unpack and move the pump across a building site before coffee. It was tested to ensure compliance with Health and Safety at Work Regulations and HSE Manual Handling Process. The majority of the weight is now on the mover, leaving the installer to easily manoeuvre the pump with significantly less chance of personal injury or damage to the pump.
Is it easier?
The pump slots in and is secured to the mover baseboard, making it an extension of the pump to enhance manoeuvrability. As an example, a Daikin Altherma 3 Monobloc weighing 150kg is reduced to 15kg as you pull it across the site.
Is it more effective?
Working with two, three or four people or a forklift takes time to arrange; that time is better spent installing. The mover is designed for a lone worker to unpack, mount and position the pump without a need to interrupt or wait for others.
Is it more professional?
If you’ve lifted or helped move a pump across a building or customer site, you’ll know how hard it is. Using the mover is designed to show you are committed to your trade and you mean business.
The feedback we’ve had from installers and a global pump manufacturer is unbelievable. Installers comments include “great investment, makes moving the pump a breeze” and “I saw the Mover on YouTube and didn’t believe it could be that simple… but it is!”
