Wall systems WAKE HUP! TO THE FUTURE Ultraframe’s new hup! building system will be on show at this year’s FIT Show at the NEC. Total Installer speaks to Marketing Director Alex Hewitt, who tells us more about the system that is described as a “better way to build home extensions and conservatories”... Visitors to the Ultraframe stand R59 at this year’s FIT Show will be the first to see the company’s new hup! building system. Put simply, hup! is the better way to build home extensions and conservatories. The system consists of a fast to build and highly energy efficient wall solution that can be used in conjunction with any Ultraframe roof, allowing installers and builders to create every possible style of home extension, orangery, or conservatory, quickly and easily. Explaining more about the new hup! system, and how it differs to traditional methods of building an extension or conservatory, Ultraframe Marketing Director Alex Hewitt said: “There are many challenges facing installers today: brick and skills shortages, more complex installations which need more time on site, unpredictable weather, complex consumer demands, post-COVID demand, and of course, the changes to Building Regulations. “We have put huge amounts of research into the hup! system to create a solution to these problems – and more – and we think that installers will be delighted with the result.” hup! at a glance • Five times more energy efficient than the average UK home, hup! uses Building Regulation compliant materials. • Fewer trades needed for easy project management – no brickies, just one conservatory fitting team. • Five times faster to build than traditional methods, hup! enables installers to collect cash quicker. The wall in particular is assembled rapidly – 10 square metres of wall takes less “The hup! system is truly unlike anything else on the market” than 5 minutes to assemble! • Manufactured off site, there is no cutting needed on site, reducing waste and time. • Ultimate design flexibility – choose your own claddings and windows & doors, and design, specify and price each project in easy-to-use software. • With rising material costs, the price of your hup! specified in the software won’t fluctuate, helping you quote with confidence. • Engineered by Ultraframe using BBA approved technology and manufactured in a BBA approved factory, with hup! you can be assured of a consistent high-quality finish. •Comprehensive training means that fitting teams are confident and competent. A revolution in extension and conservatory construction Continuing, Alex said: “The hup! system is truly Contact Ultraframe: unlike anything else on the market. “hup! uses highly energy efficient and BBA approved Ultrapanels in place of brick walls, and engineered Ultraframe roofing systems in place of timber and slate roofs, making it five times faster to build than traditional methods. “Available in any roof shape on footprints with 90° corners, installers can combine hup! walls and claddings with a choice of five Ultraframe roofs to create a bespoke hup! extension or conservatory. “Arriving as a flat packed kit, there is far less mess and disruption than with traditional methods, meaning happy homeowners. “Finally, the groundbreaking technology in Ultrapanels means that a hup! build is on average at least five times more energy efficient than the average UK home, so hup! extensions are every bit as warm and thermally efficient as the rest of your home – if not warmer!” Along with the hup! wall system, some of the roof choices available are also brand new and will be on display at the FIT Show. Installers can choose from the new-to-market Vista and Flat Roof, or well-known Ultraframe favourites, the Glass Roof, Tiled Roof (Ultraroof), or Hybrid Roof (Livinroof). 01200 443 311 www.ultraframe-conservatories.co.uk/ @Ultraframe1 54 T I MAY <strong>2022</strong> PRACTICAL CONTENT FOR THE GLAZING INSTALLER & HOME IMPROVEMENT SPECIALIST
