Cut Your Heating Bills

Saving money is often high on our list of priorities, as we look to save every penny we can in the current economic climate. With heating an absolute necessity we have been working hard to find ways you can save money without losing any of your warmth.

It has been well publicised that the large energy suppliers in the gas and electricity industries have dramatically increased their prices over the past few years. With this extra burden weighing heavy on many wallets, there is a chance for homeowners to reduce their heating costs by switching to coal as their primary heat source.

Rather than turn on the increasingly expensive gas or electric central heating, lighting your fire in the rooms you use is a practical and economically beneficial way to heat your house. You can save up to £1,200 per annum by only heating, for instance, the your front room using your fire and in most cases this generates enough warmth to spread to your other main rooms, e.g. kitchen, bedroom.

As the statistics below clearly show, the financial benefit of only heating a single room are considerable...

Cost of heating a three bedroom, semi-detached house for a year (on average):

• Electricity - £1,689
• Gas - £964

Cost of heating an average sized room (on average):

• Homefire coal on an open fire - £452
• Homefire coal on a multi-fuel stove - £257

You can save hundreds of pounds each year by changing your heating habits, whilst also enjoying the attractive flame of your fireplace.
