News | Useful Tips & Insights on Electric Heating

It’s the height of summer, and with our back gardens looking more beautiful than ever many of us are weighing the benefits of a conservatory extension. Building a conservatory is one of the cheapest ways to extend your home, and a great way to enjoy the beauty of your back garden all year round. But with so many options to choose from, there are important considerations to make before you contact a tradesperson or send off for a DIY self-assembly pack. Here are some of the most important questions to ask yourself when planning a new home conservatory:

There are two main factors which influence our spending when we buy electric central heating systems: the purchase cost of the heaters, and their monthly running costs. This makes buying electric heating systems a careful balancing act between choosing cheap heaters that are expensive to run and spending a lot on an efficient product that costs very little to run. The cheapest electric central heating products are usually a poor choice for entire home heating – you’ll quickly see the running costs exceeding the initial purchase price. But for rooms with specific heating requirements and little-used spaces, a cheap electric heater can be the most economical choice for keeping warm throughout the year.

Yesterday we shared with you heating profiles for four unique homeowners with recommendations for the best energy efficient heaters to heat their very different homes. It soon became apparent, however, that our four profiles had only scratched the surface of contemporary home heating! In today’s installment, we’ll be focusing on homeowners whose heating choices are as much determined by style as they are by energy efficiency. From households with a traditional design scheme to period properties and homes with classic architectural features, we’re here to help you heat your homes discretely, stylishly and economically.

For whatever the reason, building your perfect conservatory is a big undertaking; it requires a lot of time, effort and often money. However, if you do choose to go through with the project then it can lead to many benefits such as adding to the value of the house, and increasing the living space available, saving you from having to move to a different house. If you are thinking of building a conservatory then you have to think of the reasons why; you may think that it can be a waste of money, but if constructed right then a conservatory costing between £5000-£30,000, can add up to around 7% of the overall house value.

During the summer months the concern about the warmth of your bathroom may not be rife, yet with the ever changing British weather and winter not being too far away, it may be in your favour to be prepared. Over the course of the winter, your bathroom shouldn’t be a room to avoid due to the freezing floor tiles or the blast of cold air once you leave the shower; instead your bathroom should be a place of comfort where you can relax whilst taking a hot bath. These three simple steps will allow you to relish the experience of entering the bathroom rather than resenting it.
