Consider heating alternatives
Before installing a new heating system you need to ensure your home retains the heat you put into it.
A home heating package should include:
- Insulating ceilings, walls and floors where possible
- Sealing off draughts
- Effective window coverings
- Zoning living and sleeping areas
- Choosing an appropriate heating system for your home and using it wisely and efficiently.
For a brochure on home heating hints, insulation and choosing a heating system contact the Energy Smart Information Centre (ph: 1300 138 638).
Insulation, effective window coverings and draught proofing are all vital.
Uninsulated ceilings, walls and even floors can account for over 70% of total heat loss from a home.
