Changes to Huvo delivery charges, and a new £4.75 DPD Pickup service
From today, 23rd September, Huvo’s delivery charges are changing. Two of them are going up, and we’d rather tell you plainly than let you find out at checkout. But there’s also a new option that costs less than anything we’ve offered before – and for a lot of installs it will be more useful than […]
Smarter CCTV networking: meet the new Ruijie Reyee range at Huvo
An IP camera is only as reliable as the network sitting behind it. On a straightforward installation, that side of the job can be fairly simple. Add more cameras, longer cable runs, multiple buildings or higher-bandwidth devices, though, and the switches and network links quickly become just as important as the equipment hanging on the […]
SmartConnect: the single-loop addressable panel with networking and cloud access built in
Speccing a single-loop addressable panel usually means a familiar trade-off. The panel itself looks affordable – until you add a network card for a multi-panel site, a communicator for remote access, and the engineer time to configure it all. By the time the extras are on the quote, the “budget” option isn’t. The Zeta SmartConnect […]
One for the van, the kitchen and the weekend machine: where Fire Safety Stick fits
Most people know they should have some form of fire cover close to hand. The problem is what that usually means in practice: a pressurised cylinder that is bulky, needs servicing, leaves a mess if it is used, and often ends up exactly where it is least useful. For installers and engineers, that problem is […]
More room to stock, pre-program and demonstrate: Huvo expands its Swansea premises
Huvo has taken on the unit adjacent to our main offices at Gilsea Park and knocked through, giving the business significantly more floor space. The extra room is being put to work in two main ways: a larger stores area to hold more stock, and a dedicated engineering area built around our pre-programming services. Alongside […]
Take the Guesswork Out of Detector Testing: Try Our New Test Kit Selector
Choosing detector test equipment used to be simple. A can of test smoke, a pole and job done. Not any more. Today’s fire detection landscape is far more varied, and the test equipment market has grown to match it. Solo alone offers aerosol dispensers, heat testers in mains and cordless variants, combination kits, access poles […]
Smoke, not steam: how dual optical detection cuts false alarms
False alarms are one of the most persistent headaches on any fire system you maintain. In hotels, student accommodation and other high-occupancy buildings, a detector that can’t tell shower steam from smoke means repeated evacuations, call-out charges, wasted staff time – and, over time, occupants who stop taking the alarm seriously. Nittan’s Evolution EV-DP dual […]
AdvancedLive ordering, simplified: meet the new Huvo configurator
AdvancedLive gives you and your end users a smarter way to monitor Advanced MxPro 5 fire systems remotely. But getting from “this site needs AdvancedLive” to the correct combination of subscriptions and mapping licences has sometimes been a bit of a head-scratcher. So, we’ve built a new AdvancedLive configurator into the Huvo website. Answer a […]
Advanced MxPro 4 spare parts: availability ends 30/06/2026
If you still have Advanced MxPro 4 fire alarm control panels out in the field, this is the date to put in the diary: spare-parts availability for the legacy MxPro 4 range ends on 30/06/2026. After that point, sourcing replacement boards, power supplies and other components becomes a genuine problem — so now is the […]
