Ducted heating is a long term investment so before you even begin looking at the different types of heating available, there are a few things you should consider. Will you be at the property for a short or long period of time? Will any future lifestyle changes affect your heating needs? Do I require the entire house to be heated? We encourage you to think ahead, and purchase a ducted heating system that fulfills your current needs as well as your future ones. And keep in mind that a good ducted heating system increases the value of your home. The money you spend now is sure to pay off later.
Ducted heating is without a doubt
the most efficient way to heat your entire house. If you're using a
space heater or a reverse cycle air conditioner, the cost to heat only
one room is approximately $98 per quarter. But with gas ducted heating,
you can heat your entire home for less than $200 a quarter (if you use
zoning and high efficiency heating).
With ducted heating you never have to walk
out of a warm room into a cold one. You can be watching TV while the
kids are in bed, and everyone stays warm. Ducted central heating offers heating
flexibility through zoning. Zoning enables you to divide your home into
sections so living areas can be heated during the day and sleeping
areas at night, or whatever suits you. Zoning is not only practical but
economical. It can reduce your gas bill by up to $400 pa. in a typical
home. So don't forget to ask about zoning when you speak to us.
Ducted heating comprises a central
heating unit, which is connected to a series of outlets. Positioned
strategically throughout your home, these outlets, or ducts, are
installed either in the floor or ceiling. Installation of the heating
unit depends on your house. If your house is built on a concrete slab,
the unit is installed in the roof. If it has space underneath or a very
low roof line, the unit is installed outside or under the floor. The
ductwork, which connects the outlets to the heating unit, is neatly
tucked away out of sight.
