Every now and then, you get a little nod from the industry that makes all the late nights designing, testing, tweaking and refining completely worth it.
Recently, MMPlumber featured two of our tools in his YouTube video: “15 Must-Have Tools Under £25 on Amazon.”
-
Heatlab Ultimate Radiator Key – No.4
-
Heatlab PlumbShark – No.3
And I just want to take a moment to say how proud that makes us.
This wasn’t sponsored.
This wasn’t gifted placement.
This was simply one tradesman choosing tools he genuinely rates.
Why This Means Something
If you work in plumbing and heating, you’ll know MMPlumber. He’s built a reputation for straight-talking, practical advice and real-world tool reviews. He’s not hype-driven. He doesn’t sugar-coat things. He calls it how it is.
So when someone like that picks up your product and puts it in their “must-have” list, it carries weight.
It tells us something important:
Tradespeople are actually using our tools.
They’re finding them useful.
They’re choosing them.
That’s everything.
The Ultimate Radiator Key – Simple, Done Properly
The Ultimate Radiator Key has always been about one thing: solving a small but annoying problem properly.
No slipping.
No rounding.
No fiddly nonsense.
Just a key that works on old and new radiators and feels solid in your hand.
Seeing it land at No.4 in a trusted top 15 list reinforces what we’ve believed from the beginning — if you refine the basics and focus on quality, people notice.
PlumbShark – Designed by a Heating Engineer
PlumbShark landing at No.3 means even more to me personally.
That tool was born from frustration on the job. It’s a multi-tool built around real tasks plumbers face daily. Not a gimmick. Not a “does everything badly” tool. Just practical functionality in one compact piece.
When we designed it, the goal wasn’t to impress marketing teams. It was to impress plumbers.
To see it recognised alongside established brands under £25 shows that thoughtful design still matters.
Proud of the Craft
At Heatlab, we design tools from the perspective of someone who’s actually been on the tools.
We obsess over:
-
Durability
-
Fit and tolerance
-
Usability
-
Small details most people don’t notice
Because plumbers notice.
Being featured like this isn’t just about visibility. It’s a signal that the craft is being appreciated.
Respect Where It’s Due
I also want to say we genuinely admire what MMPlumber does.
His passion for tools, his honesty, and his skill in the trade are exactly what the industry needs more of. People like him help raise standards and shine a light on quality products — not just flashy marketing.
So if you haven’t seen the video yet, it’s worth a watch.
And if you’re one of the thousands of tradespeople who’ve bought from us — thank you. Your feedback, reviews and repeat orders are the reason tools like this get recognised in the first place.
We’ll keep designing.
You keep plumbing.
