Winter is upon us again and these chilly months can be quite a struggle to weather out when it feels like we’re living inside igloos. Imagine coming home after braving the chill in hopes of a warm cosy home, only to shiver the second you open the door. An obvious solution to that is heating. But which would be the best heating system for your current residence?

Is it right for you?

Ducted gas heating would be a good choice for bigger homes with multiple rooms as an electrical heater in every room isn’t the most practical or economical option. A ducted gas heating system works by converting the cold air from the outdoors into warm air through gas combustion and then dispersing it through a series of ducts and outlets installed in the various rooms. This means that is possible to maintain an even heat flow throughout the whole house, eliminating any cold pockets. We can even install an outlet in your bathroom. Imagine getting out of a warm shower only to feel the biting chill of the frosty air. You can put those days behind you with the help of ducted gas heating.

How much will it cost?

As the system only utilises one main unit and a series of ducts, it is more efficient and economical than electrical systems. The operating costs are very affordable: 800 dollars for a typical suburban 200m2 home. It requires minimal servicing every couple of years for a low practical fee: approximately 160 dollars for each maintenance session. It might take a little more effort to set up as we will need to survey the space in your home to determine whether it is more practical and effective to install the ducts in the ceiling or under the floor. The main heating unit will be discreetly placed either in the roof space or outside the house. If you’re planning on residing in your current home for a long time, this will be well worth the investment and will set you up for long term savings.

Better for the environment

It is also more environmentally friendly as it does not release harmful carbon emissions into the atmosphere. In addition to that, it doesn’t cause any noise pollution. Due to the minimal mechanical functions, there is practically no operating noise to disrupt the flow of your daily activities.

Ducted reverse cycle

Ducted reverse cycle air conditioning heats and cools your whole home from one system, so you don’t need separate heating and cooling. Zone control sends air only to the rooms you’re using. We work out how many zones you need from the size and layout of your home and how you use it.

Ducted evaporative

A ducted evaporative system from Mouritz cools your home with fresh outside air, and its main advantage is low running costs. It’s cooling only, and works best with a few windows or doors open so the cooled air can flow through the house.

Split systems

A split system heats and cools a room or area, so it suits homes that don’t need whole-home air conditioning. Each one has an outdoor unit and an indoor wall-mounted unit. Split systems work for one room or several, and keep purchase, installation and running costs low.

Solar

A solar power system from Mouritz gives you more control over your energy use and helps reduce your power bills. We design and install panels around your home and energy needs, and battery storage lets you use stored power when you need it. Buying air conditioning too? We offer extra discounts when you buy both together.
