Central Heating and Cooling

Q: Does central heating have a pilot light?

Typically, no. Central heating has no way of leaking gas into your building and no pilot light as well. This does mean that if your gas-using central heating system requires reignition, you will have to call someone to do this manually. However, this happens rarely enough that it should not be a high average cost. No electricity-powered system in Australia uses a pilot light.

Q: Does central heating reduce humidity?

Yes. Adding in central heating can be an effective tool to combat high humidity and therefore provides a more comfortable living space. Central heating also means that condensation throughout your house or building will be lowered, improving the general ambient feel throughout.

A central heating system is an incredibly important feature for any house—it is a way of making sure the whole of a property is temperature-controlled without a great amount of work. Boilers with thermostat control, ducted heat pumps, and underfloor heating are all efficient methods for maintaining comfortable temperatures in a modern home. Gas or electricity, the central heating options featured by ArchiPro come from leading suppliers in Australia.

The advantages of high-quality heaters

Having a good central heating system can help prevent disease and viruses during colder months, by making sure your house is at a consistent temperature all day, every day. Also, having a high-quality system means that you can be reliably warm without worrying about the system failing in time, repairs which can often be costly. The best systems are made with the latest advancements in technology and are built to last.

How to choose a central heating system that’s right for you

Every building, house and home has different specifications making some better suited to one type of heating than others, and your personal budget will dictate how advanced your central heating system can be. The size of your home and the way you want it heated will be a big factor as well as the amount of control you’d like over the system. Most homes in Australia use some form of central heating system but you should research the options according to your own needs and requirements. As much of this information is technical, consulting with a professional before purchasing is always best advised.

There are other solutions for heating and cooling your interiors, fans which provide energy-efficient cooling and enhance air circulation, fireplaces offer cosy warmth and create an inviting ambiance, hot water heating ensures consistent and energy-efficient warmth, and ventilation systems enhance air quality and temperature control.

Does central heating add value to a property?

Yes. Installing a boiler, furnace or air conditioning unit is one of the best ways to add value to your property, given that it is a highly desirable feature of any house on the market.
