Zone Heating
Zone heating can help save up to 40% off your heating bills. Today fireplaces, stoves and inserts can warm the living areas of your home while at the same time saving you money on your heating bill. These supplemental heating sources are not the boring space heaters of yesteryear. Today’s appliances add warmth, ambiance and charm to any room, plus, they can even add value to your home. A central furnace cycles on and off several times an hour and heats your entire house – even unoccupied rooms – wasting money. Using supplemental heating products to heat only the rooms your family occupies most allows you to turn down the thermostat for the central furnace, decreasing your fuel bill. Zone Heating puts the heat where you need it, when you need it, adding to your home’s comfort and ambiance but also reducing household fuel consumption, conserving energy, and saving you money. Studies indicate that Zone Heating solutions can provide energy savings of 20-40 percent.*
