For top-notch installation, servicing and repairs of gas flued heaters, trust in the skill and experience of Mr Emergency Air Conditioning.
What is a Gas Flued Heater?
Gas flued heaters use a specialised system involving a flue, a pipe connected to the heater, to safely expel carbon monoxide and other potentially harmful by-products of combustion outdoors.
This feature renders them ideal for homes equipped with old fireplaces, as the existing infrastructure can accommodate the flue. Moreover, they are versatile enough to be seamlessly installed in various settings.
There are primarily two types of gas-flued heaters: convection and radiant. Convection heaters circulate hot air throughout the room, whereas radiant heaters emit a visible gas-powered fire behind a grate, with a fan component aiding in the distribution of heat throughout the space.
Both convection and radiant heaters operate on natural gas and can be professionally installed by technicians from Mr Emergency Air Conditioning.
The Many Benefits of Gas Flued Heaters
Gas flued heating offers numerous advantages that position it as an excellent heating solution for your home.
Here are some compelling benefits:
- Safe ventilation: One of the most significant benefits is the presence of a flue, which efficiently vents carbon monoxide and other dangerous gases outdoors. This feature is crucial for ensuring indoor air quality and mitigating the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning, which can have fatal consequences if left unchecked.
- Versatile installation: Gas heaters with flues can be seamlessly integrated into existing fireplaces, providing instant warmth and a charming, natural fire-like ambiance. This adaptability allows for easy installation without the need for extensive modifications to your home.
- Space efficiency: Unlike unflued heaters, gas flued heaters can be installed in smaller rooms, thanks to the exhaust being directed outdoors through the flue. This optimised use of space is particularly advantageous for homes with limited square footage.
- Moisture control: The flue not only vents gases but also eliminates moisture and water vapour from the indoor environment. This reduces the likelihood of mould and mildew formation, contributing to a healthier living environment.
- Ventilation convenience: With a gas flued heater, there’s no need to worry about installing additional ventilation systems. The flue efficiently removes combustion by-products, simplifying the heating setup and maintenance process.
- High efficiency: Gas flued heaters boast impressive efficiency levels, with approximately 90% of the gas converted into heat. This translates to lower energy consumption and reduced heating costs compared to electric heaters.
- Cost savings: In addition to being energy-efficient, gas flued heaters are generally more cost-effective to operate than electric alternatives. This affordability can lead to long-term savings on utility bills, making them a financially savvy choice for homeowners.
- Environmental impact: Gas flued heaters produce significantly fewer carbon emissions compared to electric-powered heaters, particularly in regions where electricity is generated from non-renewable sources. Choosing a gas flued heater can help reduce your carbon footprint and minimise environmental impact.
Overall, the array of benefits offered by gas flued heating makes it a compelling and practical choice for enhancing comfort and efficiency in your home.
Flued or Unflued Gas Heater: What’s the Difference?
Beyond the evident dissimilarity between the two heater types, which lies in the presence or absence of a flue, there exist additional distinctions worth noting.
Unflued gas heaters offer mobility, allowing them to be relocated from one room to another. However, due to the absence of a flue, they are only suitable for spacious areas with adequate ventilation. Their use in confined spaces like bathrooms or bedrooms is discouraged as pollutants, water vapour, and other harmful gases can accumulate without proper venting.
In contrast, flued gas heaters are stationary and require professional installation by a licensed and experienced technician. For all your home heating requirements, including gas flued heater installation, Mr Emergency Air Conditioning is at your service.
Choosing the Gas Flued Heater That Suits You
With the plethora of options available in the market for purchasing a flued gas heater, it’s beneficial to be aware of specific features to consider.
Here are some key features to look out for:
- Remote control: Certain models offer the convenience of regulating temperature and fan speed remotely, enhancing ease of use and comfort.
- Thermostat: Look for heaters equipped with a thermostat, facilitating simpler temperature adjustments to suit your preferences.
- Timer function: A timer feature allows you to program when the heater should turn on or off, providing greater control over heating schedules and energy consumption.
- Child locks: For enhanced safety, consider heaters with child locks to prevent accidental adjustments or access by young children.
- Electronic ignition: Opting for models with electronic ignition instead of a power light can potentially save energy, contributing to greater efficiency and cost savings.
- Filter maintenance alert: Some models feature a warning system that notifies you when the filters require cleaning, ensuring optimal performance and air quality.
If you’re still undecided on a specific make or model for your home, a Mr. Emergency Air Conditioning heater technician is available to assist you in selecting a flued gas heater that aligns with your requirements.
