Water & Space Heating Systems
Water heating is a heat transfer process that uses an energy source to heat water above its initial temperature. Typical domestic uses of hot water include cooking, cleaning, bathing, and space heating. In industry, hot water and water heated to steam have many uses.
Electric space and water heating systems are second only to natural gas as the preferred primary heating choice for domestic, commercial and industrial premises in Nepal.
One assessment claimed that, as of 2009, wind had the “lowest relative greenhouse gas emissions, the least water consumption demands and… the most favourable social impacts” compared to photovoltaic, hydro, geothermal, coal and gas.
A WELL-MAINTAINED HEATING SYSTEM FOR YOUR BUSINESS AND HOUSE IS IMPORTANT FOR COST EFFICIENCY AND COMFORT.
There are few things worse for a customer than being physically uncomfortable in a hotel, restaurant, shop or house. Keeping your place too hot or too cold could result in in-comfort.
Today’s heating systems are very different from the old systems that many buildings still have. Modern heat services are smaller, quieter, and more energy efficient. There are also more options for the heating source. Systems can run on gas, electricity, and steam, as well as more eco-friendly fuel sources such as wood pellets, water, and even solar. The type of heat service source you choose will depend on the geographical location of your business and house, the size of the building, and your price limitations for the new system. You will want to keep in mind that although a more energy-efficient system might be expensive to purchase and install, you will make up the costs involved through lower heating costs. This is especially important for areas that have long-harsh-winters.
Pricing for your heating system will depend upon what work needs to be done on your current heating system. For example, routine maintenance might only cost the price of a service call plus parts. You may find that the company has a set price for weatherization services. If your heating system needs work over and above the traditional service call, the cost will be greater and you will have to pay for replacement parts and labour. If you need to replace your heating system, the cost will depend on the price of the new heating system and the difficulty of the installation. An experienced heating specialist will be able to give you a firm estimate of costs for whatever services you might need. To make sure you are getting the best service for the cost, you should get estimates from several heating companies and if possible ask other business owners whom they use for their heating repair needs. You should also ask for commercial references along with the estimates you receive.
A well-maintained heating system is a good idea for any business. Not only you and your customer will be more comfortable with the heating service, but also lessen the risk of winter hazards.
