Let’s have a little talk about heating for the home because I know there are many options out there to choose from.
- I don’t know much about solar heating for the home as it doesn’t seem to be all over the market just yet but I can tell you a little about hydronic heating as we recently got it put in our home a few months ago and like it very much.
AC systems that rely on ductwork can be extremely inefficient, as much of the energy used to heat or cool the air is lost through the ducts. Additionally, these systems are often difficult to control, as they rely on a single thermostat to regulate the temperature of the entire house. In contrast, hydronic heating systems are much more efficient and offer greater control. Rather than using a furnace or heater to generate hot air, hydronic systems use hot water to radiantly heat the rooms in your home. This not only eliminates the need for ductwork, but it also allows for zone control, meaning you can set different temperatures in different areas of your home. As a result, you’ll use less energy overall and enjoy greater comfort. And because hydronic systems don’t rely on AC, they’re also easier on your HVAC system, extending its lifespan. So if you’re looking for a more efficient and comfortable way to heat your home, consider hydronic heating. If you don’t have the money to get it you could finance it or even put it on a low interest or zero interest credit card and pay for it over time.
