Having received another large oil bill, and tasked with ordering more, the couple started looking into other heating alternatives. Their daughter had recently installed a natural gas system and was very happy with the flexibility and convenience of having their heating and hot water paid for monthly via direct debit as well as never having to worry about topping up.
With a quick phone call they arranged a visit with a firmus energy advisor. Environmentally aware Helena was delighted to hear that switching to natural gas could reduce carbon emissions by up to 50% compared to the previous system.
She said: “When firmus energy’s advisor came out, she was amazing. She explained everything – the process, the benefits and what was involved in switching. I was surprised to hear that natural gas helped reduce carbon emissions by so much. This was an added bonus to for us as we are environmentally aware and we do try and do our bit.”
“The entire installation was done before we knew it. After the meter was put in, our recommended installer came the next day and had everything switched over and finished by 5pm. No dirt, no hassle all I had to do was clear out my hot press!”
A huge plus for us is the instant hot water. We have a busy house and before we switched we were always running out of hot water, forcing us to use the emersion all the time, but now we have access to hot water and heat instantly, whenever we need it! We’ve also noticed how much warmer our heating system gets. When our installer switched over our system from oil to gas they bled all the radiators and cleaned the system meaning it’s now more efficient than ever and saving us money. With a house that is always warm, and water that is always warm natural gas really has become the heart of our home.”
