			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The same inventive team behind the award winning Wind-Up Radio has officially launched the world’s first water-powered radio.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone" title="Shower Powered Radio" src="http://www.globehuggers.com/joom/images/stories/water_powered_radio_attached.png" alt="" width="313" height="298" /></p>
<p>Using a patented micro turbine concept, the H2O™ <strong>Shower</strong> Powered Radio is powered solely through the motion of water flowing through a small H2O™ micro turbine; driving a generator that creates energy to power the radio. The radio dispels the need for disposable batteries, as the integral battery recharges as the <strong>shower</strong> runs.</p>
<p>The radio has the ability to automatically switch on when the <strong>shower</strong> is operated and memorises both the last chosen radio station and speaker volume. And if that’s not enough, the radio even allows users to carry on listening after the <strong>shower</strong> is turned off.</p>
<p>It is envisioned that the device will be a hit with those consumers who enjoy a spot of singing in the <strong>shower</strong>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When installing a <strong>shower enclosure</strong> or wet room, be sure to select the right shower kit for you. There are many different variants of shower kits on the market ranging from simple shower rail kits right through to a fully loaded body jet systems.</p>
<p>Once you have chosen your <strong>shower enclosure</strong>, wet room or <strong>shower bath</strong> you will then need to decide what you want from your shower kit and what you can realistically fit into the space. Some of the larger body jet systems may not be practical for use in a smaller shower enclosures as some are quite large and would probably suit a wet room or walk in shower more.</p>
<p>For a regular sized shower enclosure there are a variety of options available at Victoria Plumb to bring you the most luxurious showering experience possible. As featured in August issue of ‘<strong>Your Home’ magazine</strong> the <strong>Orb body jet systems</strong> are a great way to add that little bit of extra glamour to your new shower. Incorporating a <strong>fixed shower head</strong>, separate shower hand spray and three <strong>adjustable body jets</strong>, the Orb body jet system has everything you could need. Choose from four different finishes; black, silver, green or purple.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The new Victoria Plumb Thermostatic Mixing Valve is an anti-scalding device that can be added to any washbasin or bath to ensure the safety of your family.</p>
<p>There are around 20 fatalities every year as a result of hot bath water scalding. The most vulnerable to hot water scalding are the young and the elderly as the skin is thinner making it more perceptible to scalding injuries.</p>
<p>According to a report on the TMVA website “Hot bath water is responsible for the highest number of fatal and severe scald injuries in the home.” Figures also show that a massive 75% of severe scalds are suffered by children under the age of 5 and a staggering 75% of fatalities being of people aged 65+.</p>
<p>These are worrying figures and an easy and inexpensive solution is to install a Thermostatic Mixing Valve, which is easily purchased as an individual item or added as part of a bathroom suite from Victoria Plumb.</p>
<p>The Victoria Plumb Thermostatic Mixing Valve is WRAS &amp; TMV3 approved and will need to be installed in your bathroom by a plumber to ensure the anti-scalding device is correctly installed.</p>
<p>For more information regarding Thermostatic Mixing Valves please visit: www.tmva.org.uk.</p>
