Flued Space Heaters
A flued space heater uses fuel combustion to generate heat and requires a flue or chimney for the exhaust gases to be safely expelled outside. These heaters are typically powered by natural gas, propane, or oil.
Our fully qualified and licensed professionals can supply and install a flued space heater in Canberra. Flued space heaters are perfect for heating an area of your home and are a great alternative to a ducted gas system.
Flued space heaters are available in a range of sizes with different heating capacities. These heaters give you excellent temperature control. If you’re unsure which flued space heater is most compatible with your home, speak to one of our installers, who can recommend a suitable solution.
The flued space heaters we install are available in either radiant or convection heaters. They are installed onto an internal or external wall with a flueing system to keep your air indoors clean.
Ducted Gas Heating
A ducted gas heater is a heating system that uses natural gas or propane as a fuel source to generate heat. They’re designed to heat an entire building or multiple rooms by distributing warm air through a network of ducts and vents.
The Energy People provides and installs ducted gas heating in Canberra. If you want to heat your entire home, ducted gas heating is an ideal system. With zoning capability so that you can heat some, or all, areas, you can enjoy the warmth of your home during winter.
Ducted gas heating systems involve installing a unit with a series of ducts connected to outlets throughout your home.
Gas Log Fires
Gas log fires are an efficient alternative to natural wood fires and are available in freestanding or inbuilt models. Instead of burning logs, a gas log fire utilises ceramic logs or other artificial materials designed to resemble real wood logs. These logs are placed within a firebox, which is typically made of metal and features realistic-looking flames.
Gas log fires not only add a beautiful ambience, but larger models can heat up to 200 square metres, keeping every room of your home comfortable and warm.
As a standalone heat source, or to complement your existing heating system, The Energy People can install a gas log fire in Canberra.
Whether you’re replacing an existing wood fire or are simply looking to install a new unit, we’ll have a fireplace in Canberra to suit your needs. These units come in a range of styles to suit your home’s interior, and are available in NG or LPG models.
Portable Gas Heaters
As the name suggests, a portable gas heater is a heating device that can be easily moved and used in different locations. Portable gas heaters are also recognised in the industry as an economical heater for your home.
These units require no installation as they plug into a gas bayonet point and have the flexibility of being able to be removed and stored away when the unit is not required. Available in radiant or convector models, these gas heaters are best used in open living areas.
FAQs
What are the pros and cons of gas heating?
When compared to the most commonly available alternatives in Australia, gas heating is the most consistent and quickest form of heating. It takes less time to heat the air in your home with gas than with most other types of fuel. The biggest con for gas heating is the fact that it is not able to be used as renewable energy source.
What is the most efficient way to heat a house with gas?
If you want to keep your gas heating cost at a reasonable level, the best way to do so is through an efficient ducted heating system, whilst maintaining a minimum core temperature when in non-peak timeframes. This system is designed to heat the air in your home evenly and to switch off once the desired temperature is achieved.
How do you use a gas heater safely?
If you decide to use standalone gas heaters, you should always follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer and have them serviced regularly as well.
