Autumn is approaching and that means colder days ahead. However, Oregon is blessed with an amazingly moderate climate where even our chilliest days are nothing compared to other regions in the world. This means that our residents can take advantage of all natural low emissions heating in their green home.
As well as insulation and energy efficiency, there are other innovative heating ideas to keep your home toasty warm for the winter.
Seal up draughts - Put snakes under door jambs, get weather stripping for your windows. Heavy curtains also help keep in the heat and keep out the cold. You'll be amazed at how cosy a room can be without any heating at all.
Look beneath your feet - the soil beneath you home acts as a natural insulator, keeping the ground warm all year round. By employing a geothermal heat pump, your home can be take advantage of this natural heat during the colder months. In a geothermal system, liquid is circulated in pupes that run beneath your home. As the liquid gets warmer, it is pumped up to a heat condensor where the heat is released into your central heating system
