Saving on gas in a rental property?
A decorative fireplace is the solution!
Rental properties often lack proper insulation, leading to high heating costs. The owner often has no incentive to invest in the property, even if it could help the tenant reduce gas consumption while increasing the comfort of the home. But well, the owner doesn't live there...
However, there's a lot you can do to reduce gas consumption on your own. Consider draft excluders, insulation behind radiators, and you can also install an electric or bio ethanol decorative fireplace in your home. No chimney is required, so that investment is already eliminated. These decorative fireplaces can be placed anywhere: living room, bedroom, kitchen, office.
Where do I place an electric decorative fireplace?
All you need for an electric fireplace is an electrical outlet. Verder ben je vrij om de haard te plaatsen waar je maar wil. De meeste sfeerhaarden van Xaralyn hebben 3 standen: 1 stand waarbij je geen verwarming hebt en alleen de vlammen ziet en 2 warmtestanden. Hierdoor kun je de centrale verwarming een paar graden lager zetten en met de elektrische kachel bijverwarmen.
Where do I place a bio ethanol decorative fireplace?
Well, that's even easier! A bioethanol fireplace can be placed anywhere. However, keep in mind that this involves real flames. So, ventilation is necessary. Also, ensure that if you're building the fireplace unit yourself, the casing is made of heat-resistant material. Find that too complicated? No worries. Xaralyn offers an insert that you can build into MDF or you can buy the decorative fireplace complete with casing. You can also buy models that are freestanding and portable, and you can even get tabletop models from us.
Conclusion
