Many people who build their house spend a lot of time on thinking about their heating systems. More important, though, is to think about if they could decrease the need of energy required for heating by making the house more condensed and isolated.
The price of energy in its various forms will definitely increase during the lifeline of the house. Investing in reducing the amount of energy consumed for heating will pay itself back quickly and the more effort you put into it in the building phase, the more you will win in the longer run.
You can get very good advice and basically everything you need for building a house that doesn’t require so much energy for heating from K-Rauta, a Finnish hardware store (in Finnish: rautakauppa). The staff is well trained and they can introduce the latest technology and tips and tricks for the building phase and beyond.
1. Geothermal heating
2. Exhaust air heating system
3. Electric heating system
4. Oil heating system
5. District heating system
6. Pellet heating system
7. Other wood heating systems
To brake down the heating energy and where it goes: on average of all the energy used in heating 40-60% goes into heating the rooms. 10-25% goes to heating the water being used. 5-15% goes to heating the intake air and 20-30% goes to property electricity.
When building a house, you should look into the biggest one of the mentioned, heating the rooms. By planning your house so that you can adjust different rooms and spaces according to the usage and the need means huge savings on heating. If you don’t use one room, you can keep it a bit cooler and if you don’t use one room at all you can cut down the heating. This is the part where it’s also important to have your isolation in condition.
You can get good advice from K-Rauta on building your house so that you can adjust the different temperature zones. You can even have one for every room. Investing in this will pay back if you are active with adjusting the temperatures. Build your house wisely and do consult a professional when planning the heating system. You might save a big penny.
