Feeling the chill this winter season? Upgrading your air conditioning system is a big decision and we’re here to help you with all the information you need to make a decision on replacing your full evaporative air conditioning with a split, ducted or reverse cycle system in a typical Adelaide home.
Why Choose an Energy-Efficient Heating System?
There are numerous benefits to upgrading to energy efficient heating. Besides saving on energy cost, making a switch also makes a difference in terms of:
Improved Comfort
Older heating systems might not provide even heating throughout your home, resulting in some rooms being too cold or too warm. Upgrading to a modern system ensures that rooms get heated evenly, which results in a more comfortable home.
Environmentally Friendly
An energy efficient heating system can not only save money, but also reduce your carbon footprint. They are designed to use less fuel and emit less pollution, contributing to a cleaner environment.
Increased Home Value
With a modern, efficient heating system in place, your home’s market value is increased. Prospective buyers are often willing to pay a premium for homes that promise lower energy bills and are environmentally friendly.
How to choose the right heating system
There are several factors to think about when it comes to installing a heating system that works for your home.
Size of the space you need to heat
The size of the home you’re heating will determine what sort of system you need. If you’re planning to heat the entire home (or if it’s open plan), then a centralized heating system would be suitable.
If you just need to heat a single room, then individual room heaters would be more appropriate.
How insulated the space is
Your house should ideally be insulated so that you can heat it efficiently without wasting energy. Some things you can do include:
- Seal gaps between doors and windows with draught stoppers or door snakes
- Install thick curtains or blinds to prevent heat from escaping from windows, or consider double glazing
- Insulate walls and ceilings to keep heat within the home
Energy efficiency of the system
When picking a heating system, you also need to think about whether you want an electrical system or gas system. Gas heaters can be cheaper if you are heating a small space, while if you have solar panels installed, an electrical heater can be cheaper to run.
