Wavin has launched a 25-stop tour, in partnership with City Plumbing, to bring its WaVan to visit branches across the UK.

The tour launched in Chorley on 1 July and is set to run until 29 September. The first phase is due to conclude in St Austell before continuing into the Scotland later in the year.  According to Wavin, the tour gives installers the opportunity to get hands-on with products, speak directly with the Wavin team and have access to exclusive promotions.

Following its debut at Installer Show last month, Wavin’s interactive ‘O Game’ will be coming to City Plumbing branches across the country. The company said it is designed to demonstrate how easy Hep₂O Keyless fittings are to install and demount. In the game, installers can go head-to-head in a speed challenge to see who can complete an ‘O’ in the quickest time.

The ‘O Game’ competition will run nationally until the end of the year, with prizes awarded to the fastest participants at the top of the leaderboard.

Installers visiting participating branches will also be able to pick up one of Wavin’s Hep₂O Keyless trail pack “pizza boxes”. This gives installers the chance to test the new push-fit system for themselves.

Nikki Whitlow, key account manager at Wavin, said: “We’re excited to be getting out on the road and connecting directly with installers across the UK. Partnering with City Plumbing gives us a fantastic opportunity to showcase not only Hep₂O Keyless, but also our wider Indoor Climate Solutions (ICS) proposition, including Underfloor Heating, Ventilation and Smart Controls, alongside our full Commercial and Non-Residential product portfolio available through City Commercial.

“Most importantly, it gives customers the chance to get hands-on with the products and speak directly with the team about how Wavin can support their projects.

“The response to the ‘O Game’ at Installer Show was fantastic, so we’re pleased to be bringing it to branches across the country and giving even more installers the opportunity to take part, put their skills to the test and experience the benefits of Hep₂O Keyless for themselves.”

Karl Baggott, senior category manager at City Plumbing, added: “We’re delighted to be partnering with Wavin on this nationwide campaign. Bringing manufacturers directly into our branches gives our customers the opportunity to learn more about the latest products, ask questions, and gain valuable hands-on experience.

“The combination of demonstrations, interactive activities and exclusive offers will help create a great experience for installers visiting our branches throughout the tour.”
