11 top tips for staying warm this winter As the days grow shorter and the cold weather moves in, we have some great ideas for staying warm, having fun and keeping your social life hopping!

1. Turn up the gas Gas heaters are one of the most costeffective and environmentally friendly ways to heat up your home. It’s the perfect option if you have large, open rooms as gas copes easily with heating these spaces quickly. You also get direct, instant heat so you can warm up your family as soon as you get home on a cold day. Another great bonus is that a gas heater, compared to an electric option, generates around one-third of the amount of greenhouse gas emissions and can reduce heating bills by up to 60%.

2. Warm up from the ground up Underfloor heating is one of the safest, healthiest and most convenient ways to heat your home. It’s an incredibly effective way to keep your home at a nice, consistent temperature. You also get to have toasty warm feet all day, every day. If you’re worried about the costs, then make sure that you get thermostats installed for each room. You’ll be able to programme your system to only heat the rooms and areas most commonly used and turn the heating on and off at certain times during the day. This way, you’ll make your system work for you in terms of saving money and not wasting electricity.

3. Set your air conditioner to reverse Did you know that your air conditioning unit has a reverse cycle that actually warms the air? It’s essentially a wonderful heater that uses the same amount of electricity as it does in the summer. You also get the excellent added bonus of running an air filtration system through your home, which is particularly necessary in winter. This is the time of year when you spend a lot of time indoors and don’t open the windows that often, meaning you can get a lot of germs, dust and other pollutants building up.

This can lead to your family getting sick again and again all winter long.

With your air conditioner running, you’ll be cleaning the air at the same time as keeping everyone warm.

INDOOR/WINTER FEATURE

4. Light it up with fire Whether you have an open hearth, a fireplace insert, a wood stove or a pellet stove, a roaring fire is the perfect antidote to a cold winter’s day. Your home will be filled with a wonderful, natural heat that dries out the damp and makes you feel warm and cosy. There’s nothing quite like watching the flames dance around as the outside cold melts away. Another bonus to having a fireplace in your home is that it increases the value of your property. A fireplace sought after by many a buyer.

5. Keep your towels toasty Heated towel rails might seem like a luxury,but they actually go a long way

towards keeping your bathroom warm and dry and your family from getting sick. In the winter, it’s not so nice to keep windows open when you bath or shower, and if it’s raining or wet outside, an open window won’t help to dry out your bathroom anyway. With a heated towel rail, your towels will dry quickly after you’ve finished using them. This means that there is less lingering damp in the room and less chance of unpleasant, damp-loving bacteria growing.

6. Get the right linen to snuggle up in Snuggled up in bed is where most people want to be on a cold winter’s day. In order to make this a wonderful place to

THE

be, it’s best to go for flannel sheets and comforters. They add extra warmth and make any bed feel very indulgent. If you prefer cotton for your home, be sure to check the weave of the fabric and the thread count. The higher the better in terms of warmth.

7. Don’t let the heat escape through your windows Double glazing your windows is one of the best ways to ensure that nothing escapes.

The thick glass will trap the heat inside and keep the cold, outside. All of this will lead to you saving money on heating and reducing the energy consumption in your home.

8. Wrap your home up nice and cosy Insulation is key to maintaining temperatures in your home all year round.

In the winter, it can make a big difference when it comes to keeping your home warm and reducing energy costs. You also get the added bonus of reducing noise levels from the outside, and controlling the amount of condensation that forms in your home.

9. Set your outdoor entertainment area alight A fire pit is the ultimate South African way to gather your friends and family.

It’s a bonfire, braai, light and heat source all wrapped into one stylish outdoor entertainment area.

10. Shelter your stoep PVC blinds are the perfect way to add a bit of shelter to your veranda or stoep so that you can still enjoy the outdoors in winter.

They’re flexible, meaning you can drop and

raise the sides depending on where the rain and wind are coming from. You also get the option of inserting see-through PVC windows so that you can enjoy your garden while sitting in shelter. It’s almost as if you’ve added an extra room to your home. These blinds will also keep your outdoor furniture dry in the rainy season and add an extra layer of insulation to your home.

11. Bring some heat to the outdoors A portable outdoor gas heater will allow you to hang out in your outdoor entertainment area in complete comfort this winter. This means that you can keep on braaing throughout the year without separating everyone – guests inside and braai master out in the cold. Make sure that you get a heater that is specifically designed for the outdoors otherwise you won’t be able to heat up your patio properly.

New technology making life conveniently comfortable.

Don’t we all dread coming home late on a cold winter’s day only to be welcomed by a very cold and dark home? There is an irresistible solution to fixing this problem. Simply install a Pellet Fireplace in your home and a warm, welcoming home is as easy as setting your desired room temperature and switch-on time.

Pellet fireplaces are highly efficient, fully automated and programmable heating systems. They utilize wood pellets as fuel

INDOOR/WINTER FEATURE

which is very economical, easy to handle and store and produce high heat outputs without harming the environment.

These smart winter heaters guarantee a long burn time with a thermostatically controlled self-regulating capacity as well as practical programming management.

You simply set the desired room temperature and the fireplace will then automatically adjust its output in order to maintain the temperature selected. Programming this system to turn on and off at set times will always leave your home warm and inviting as you come through the door.

An easy once-a-year maintenance service, that won’t take you longer than an hour and a half, will do the trick to keep your pellet fireplace cooking all winter long.
