Helpful Guide For A Living Room Furniture Buyer    By: Dave Tyler
Getting the right living room furniture is important. The fixtures you place in your living room and all the other areas in your home largely contribute to your comfort, your mindset, and your total wellness. You can readily get sofas and other furniture in your nearest furniture shop and even thru the Internet, but the question is, would you be getting the right furniture of excellent quality at a customer-friendly price? For busy and career persons like you who do not have much time to canvass and to meticulously choose sofas and other fixtures such as coffee tables and TV stands for your home, the odds of just getting what is available is high without thinking that you are compromising some of the things that you should be getting out of the money you spent.(read entire article)(posted on: 2010-08-02)

What Are The Advantages Of Underfloor Heating?    By: Electric underfloor heating is easy to install, ec
Electric underfloor heating is easy to install, economical to run and is environmentally friendlier than many alternatives, reducing heating bills and it is increasingly becoming recognised as a great energy efficiency measure. The ease of installation of Heat Mat underfloor heating is one of the major benefits of it and each room uses it’s own thermostat/timer which monitors the floor and air temperature to ensure your room is always exactly the temperature that you require. This allows superior control to a radiator system where you usually have one central thermostat/timer backed up by basic thermostats on each radiator. With a suitable underfloor heating system installed, there is no need for radiators, thereby saving valuable wall space which can be at a premium in small properties. Heat Mat systems can be installed when laying new carpets or even wooden floors, as there are systems suitable for nearly all floor coverings, however, system efficiency may be compromised when using particularly thick laminate or carpets. Electric underfloor heating provides the best results when used beneath tiled or stone floors, as these transmit heat to your room very quickly. It is always best to install suitable insulation materials directly beneath underfloor heating as these help provide maximum efficiency and minimise heat loss through the ground. Heat mat underfloor heating provides a constant heat output which is spread over the whole floor area, and is thermostatically controlled in each room. It is recommended that underfloor heating systems are not fitted below refrigerators, freezers or food cupboards as they will needlessly heat the areas above them. Heat mat underfloor heating can also increase the value of your home and when an energy report is produced, the system and its insulation may be taken into account as an energy efficiency measure. Our underfloor heating insulation is economical as it can significantly reduce the amount of energy lost in a home. According to experts, solid concrete floors are responsible for the majority of heat loss in British homes. The installation of insulation not only increases energy efficiency, but it can also prevent damp problems which can emerge from condensation. When fitting Heat Mat underfloor heating, it is recommended that you also review the insulation of the rest of the property for maximum benefit. How is underfloor heating better for the environment than alternative heating systems? Underfloor heating can be better for the environment than alternative underfloor heating systems as it can help reduce your electricity bills and heating costs, which in turn saves the earth’s resources and dependence on fossil fuels. The effectiveness of your under floor heating will depend not only on the insulation installed beneath the system itself, but also on the insulation in the rest of your property, and in particular in the rooms where the heat mat underfloor heating is installed. The efficiency of your underfloor heating will also depend on its Wattage per square metre output, as systems running at a higher output warm up more quickly, minimising heat loss. Installing an intelligent underfloor heating system with significant additional insulation contributes to sustainable living by reducing your dependence on electricity and, with careful installation and operating measures, can reduce your heating bills by up to 50%. Heat mat underfloor heating can also reduce your personal carbon footprint as it can be powered by micro-generation devices, though this is an expensive method and the majority of properties are not suitable for installing photovoltaic cells or a micro wind generator. An alternative is to contract with a company which offers to supply you with power from 100% renewable sources although there will be a small premium involved. The installation of a separate programmable thermostat for your Heat Mat underfloor heating in each room ensures that each area stops being heated when it reaches the desired temperature. By lowering the thermostatic settings for your underfloor heating by just one degree, you can make a substantial difference to the amount of power used. In addition, you can ensure that your thermostat only heats the floor as and when required. If the underfloor heating is in a room you only use on certain days of the week, you should ensure that the heat mats are set to heat only on those days. If you are using an intelligent thermostat with your underfloor heating system, it will learn when to power up the system and adjust it’s start time to take into account particularly cold conditions. If you enable this function, and program the thermostat, it will calculate how long it takes to heat your floor and adjust its start and end time suitably throughout the year.(read entire article)(posted on: 2010-07-31)
