Alpha has hired Garry Mills as renewable product specialist. He will join Dan Wilden, renewable manager, as the demand to heat homes using greener alternatives increases.
Garry is to be educating engineers new to this area and supporting throughout the journey from initial training and selling to customers, to onsite installation, further education and retrofitting to older systems.
He has a career in heating and plumbing spanning over 13 years and has spent a majority of the last seven years installing and working with heat pumps.
Garry said: “I am delighted to be working with Alpha and look forward to helping support and educate those looking to embrace greener technologies.
“Due to increased interest in this area, my focus is to work with installers to help them get past any inhibitions or anxieties they may have in this field.
“With some tailored support and training, I’m confident that many installers can extend their service offerings and increase revenue, all whilst doing their bit for the planet.
“If we want to reduce fossil fuels for a better future, we must embrace these new technologies now and help homeowners make the right choice for them and their home.”
Andrea Carmeli, Alpha’s managing director, added: “We’re thrilled to have Garry join the team in this new role which helps our business to strengthen its renewable product offering.
“His expertise in working on the ground with customers is crucial to the work he will do with new installers starting to find their feet in this area.
“At Alpha, we are optimistic about the future of green energy and work hard towards playing a vital role in the future of climate control technologies.”
