Electric Heating Generally - It Doesn't Have To Cost The Earth!

Electric heating in the home is now more than 17% cheaper than gas central heating for the average householder, according to a recent study carried out by Applied Energy.  When you also take into account things like annual servicing costs needed for boiler systems the savings are even greater.  "But running electric heating is expensive isn't it?"  "Electricity costs more than gas doesn't it?"  These are the most common queries I get when anyone asks me about alternatives to traditional gas fired central heating.  Well no - quite simply that is no longer the case.  Besides, not everyone has access to mains gas (me included) and so it is important to look at the options.  These are some of the systems I have found over the years that really do save you money and offer reliable, service for the long term.
