Staying warm this winter and being able to afford it are too big challenges facing families - especially with the cost of electricity and gas on the rise.
So how can you make your home more energy efficient? Are heat pumps the answer (not if we have blackouts this winter!!!) and what is the cheapest way to stay warm.
We have installed a new Jayline enclosed wood burner this year - and boy what a difference on our previous 25 year old Kent fireplace. Massive amounts of heat - and using less wood.
We live in provincial NZ so have a ready supply of fairly cheap wood sources. 12 cubic metres delivered for $480 in November 2007.
