• No one likes being cold and uncomfortable within
  the confines of their own home and yet few

• In this article attention will be given to the
  most affordable and effective home heating

• Hiring someone who specializes in auditing your
  current energy uses is very much advisable as it
  gives you a much more comprehensive understanding
  of just how well your home is heated.

• The first option in terms of home heating that we
  are going to look at is an energy efficient
  heater or boiler. This type of heating option
  utilizes ducts within the home to distribute the
  air that has been heated. In the case of a
  boiler, the hot water is heated for use and in
  some instances the steam is utilized for heating
  the house.

8

• Now although the steam boiler will operate at a
  higher temperature, it isn't nearly as efficient.
  In both cases (the heater and the boiler) there
  are high-efficiency models available. The
  effectiveness of a furnace (heater) or boiler is
  measured yearly by something called an annual
  fuel efficiency.

• This allows consumers across the board to compare
  the efficiency/functionality of their heating
  option. The effectiveness of a heating system can
  also be assessed by some of its components - wet
  heat exchanger, electric ignition, and sealed
  combustion.

• If due to financial constraints you are not able
  to upgrade your current home heating solution,
  then there are a few things that can be done to
  up the overall efficiency of the heating system.
  A few or they are shutting off your pilot light
  (especially during the summer months).

12

• If your furnace is one of those that has a fan
  belt then inspect it for cracks, etc. and replace
  if necessary. Keep all air returns and vents free
  of anything that would obstruct the flow of
  heated air into your rooms. Check the furnace and
  chimney vent system at least once a year in
  both cases ensuring that the systems are free of
  anything that might impede the flow of air.

13

• Keep the surrounding area of the furnace clear,
  there should be nothing leaning up against it.
  Probably the easiest way to ensure efficiency is
  to have the furnace serviced at least once a
  year.
