These days, watching your spending is a big deal. The economy has taken a big dip, but this is not always a bad thing underneath the surface. The economy has opened many people's eyes to the more important things many of us have overlooked. For many, the recession has shown them ways to generate money from their current infrastructure by changing things that are incredibly inefficient such as their boilers and heating resources.
Spending too much on inefficient boilers, heaters, and heat pumps is something more than a rational amount of people have simply taken for granted thus felt powerless to change it. With the economy forcing people to find ways to save money, many have revisited the main drains on their wallets. For many whom are using electrical heat generating concepts, a simply change to gas, oil, or the ductless heat pump can bring a significant amount of savings.
The economy will bounce back eventually, and although many suffered the wrath of the recession, they will no doubt come out of this ahead. The money you can save, for example by using a ductless heat pump over a duct system could be significant as you may come to realize that you can get the same heat without all the extra unnecessary equipment. If the ductless unit will produce and distribute the needed heat without first pumping it into the ducts and losing all that heat that gets trapped up there, then you will have gained a better posture and a more efficient system- not to mention a much cheaper way to go!
For many, their current system was there when they moved in and they never questioned weather or not it was overbearing, or inefficient. Today, these same people who would have never taken a second look are now experimenting and learning that there truly is a better more efficient, less expensive way. The same goes for people building on their current foundation.
If your home uses a duct system, an electric heating concept, and you add a room or a new wing to your home, chances are you will add more ducts to append the current system. This may not at all be necessary, in fact if it's too far away from the heating source, this may be a bad idea. Using a ductless heat pump in this room may be far more effective, less expensive, and requires no additional expense putting in the ducts!
